| My awesome sister and I decided to make applesauce. Yes, we know canning season should be over by now. |
 | |
| She is a pro, but this is my first attempt at canning anything. I always thought it seemed difficult, but its not. It just takes a long time and a messy kitchen. AppleSauce. Check. Lets get on with what we really should be doing in December, Christmas stuffs! |
 |
| T. turned 6. Amazing. He somehow lives although he seeks out danger at every turn. Mom is having a hard time grasping the idea that he isn't still 4. It seems like a whole year would be long enough to settle the idea that he was 5 but it just never sunk in, and now 6? They dont really grow up this fast do they?! |

| Why is it that when Mom is at the end of her rope with the dog that the kids suddenly take a real liking to her? Maybe all the threats of selling her on KSL. I think even the dog realized I was serious because suddenly she is acting much better. Now if I could just get her to want to run on the treadmill instead of around town in the freezing cold mornings. Its the same energy burned. Isnt that the point? I guess not, to a dog. |

| N. working on his baking skills. He rocked at making bread! What a kid! |
 |
| The kids talked us into going to the skating rink. They had a blast! It was their first time on a rink that wasnt frozen. It was nearly impossible to get them to leave, they were some of the last kids on the rink when it was closing time. Z. tried skates, blades and her scooter and was great on all 3. |
 |
| S. stuck with her trusty scooter, some of the time running beside it instead of on it when she needed a break. She had fun playing around with her cousin S. Hilarious to see their little bodies skating and dancing to the pop music. |
 |
| T. took the DJ's instructions very seriously, even when it seemed like no one else was listening. He is skating backward as instructed because he wasnt couple skating. You should have seen him try to Scooter backward! He didnt stop to rest the whole night and got a little mad when it was girls only, he chose to skate around the rink on the bordering carpet instead. |
 |
| Its a good thing N. eats for 2 although he is just 1 boy, he worked off a days worth of calories on his scooter. Sometimes he was so fast we could hardly see him! He had a blast cutting off his sister and her friends. Typical. |

| It was a tight squeeze. What brave kids to get down there with the spiders. |
