Hi all,
It's Fall here! Fall in Egin is one of my favorite things...the smell, the temperatures, the colors, the Fall clothes. Had to scrape ice off my car window this morning, on my way to Ward Council.
It's been a nice weekend. Yesterday I was able to get the house cleaned, took Gran shopping, and finished preparing my lesson for today. My lesson went really well too! It was on guarding our health, both physical and spiritual. The ladies participated and it went about at as well as any lesson I remember giving.
Dad has been really busy this weekend, with all the tourists in the county for Labor Day weekend. 6000 people on the dunes! yes, that's 3 zeros! He had to have 4 deputies just at the dunes...not to mention the rest of the county. There was a big party, even a band out there.
Gran had invited Joseph's and Mary's family, and uncle Jim, out for dinner and games this evening. They get out of Church at 2, so after changing clothes, it was close to 3 before they came. Lots of good food, and then banana grams, chinese checkers, etc... Then ice cream and cookies. They stayed until after 7; I think they had a nice time.
We had a lovely crop of grapes this year...until the Robins found them! There might be a handful left. I'll get a net or something before next year...but so glad the Robins enjoyed themselves! :)
Dad found a treasure at a yard sale yesterday. He calls it his hotline! It looks really nice in the living room, by the red chair. And it works!
Aimee and James, I'm so excited about what you are doing with your house! I look forward to more pictures as you go along. I never would have thought of moving those shelves...but it makes such a difference, and puts that big space in the middle of the room to good use! Thanks for letting us in on it!
Aunt Sam, Stevie, Connor, their baby, Alexis, and Cameron, all came to visit Grandma and Grandpa today. Beth and Hannah came too, and brought brunch for them all.
Love to all of you! Mom/Johanna/Nana

Hello everyone!
James has been busy working on our coatroom! Pictures are attached! It is now all taped and ready for texture. Whew!
Dad got to see it in person on Wednesday and we got to see him! Dad, I know it was quick, but I'm so thankful we got to see you! Thank you so much for stopping by!!!
And I have to share one more thing with all of you. I mentioned a while ago that James was working on advertising his bear bait door in Bear Hunting Magazine. His add will appear in the Nov/Dec issue and will run for a year. But even more, James sent one of the doors to the editor of the magazine who is very excited about it. The editor said he will write a review of it in the magazine. He also made a short video introducing it and will be posting it on his blog soon. James is excited and really, really nervous now! Yikes!!
Lots of love to all of you, and a Super Happy Birthday to Dixie!!!
Aimee
