| We tried something new this week. A group of local farmers have joined together to offer an online farmers' market. We ordered our vegetables on Tuesday and picked them up on Thursday at our favorite specialty grocery store. The vegetables were delicious and we enjoyed being able to comparison shop and plan ahead. In the photo Abe is holding kale and Helen is holding golden beets. |

| Helen has cracked the code! She's been able to pick out words for quite a while, but this week her reading has taken off. Saturday morning she and Gibson sat on the couch while she read him fairy tales-- her favorite kind of stories. |

| We had some cute dancers from BYU-Idaho stay at our house Friday night. They were in town as part of a tour of the Northwest. Their show was amazing-- 2 hours of ballet, tap, jazz, ballroom and modern dance with lots of gorgeous costumes. They had delightful personalities and we enjoyed their short stay very much. |

| Sophie spent the week at Girls' Camp and had a terrific time. She said she wasn't homesick a bit. Favorite memories are a polar bear swim, getting caught in a hailstorm, pulling pranks with her cabinmates, a solo hike and being with friends the entire time. In the photo Sophie is wearing the beads she collected at camp. |

Hi Becky! I can't remember how old Helen is...? I love that she "cracked the code." Never again the same! Lauren leaves for girls' camp this week--I don't think she'll be homesick either!
I have heard that girls camp was a hit. I'm glad Sophie had so much fun.
It is fun to watch when the little ones figure out how all the letters work together to make words and sentences...
Cute Helen.
What a fun week! The farmer's market produce looks amazing. Congrats to Helen for already being such an amazing reader - can't wait for her to read us some fairy tales! Glad Sophie had such a good time at Girl's Camp and wish we could've seen the BYU dancing performance.
We saw the same BYU-Idaho dance performance! It gave me a pang of homesickness when I looked on the back of the program and saw the Crater High Auditorium listed! Unfortunately we didn't get to host any dancers.
I am glad Sophie had fun at Girls Camp and am impressed at Helen's reading.
