Bob surprised me and took me to The Green Mill Cocktail Lounge thursday night where an incredible big band called Swingshift played. It was wonderful! As a side note, it has been open since 1910 and was a hang out of Al Capone.

We had a great day celebrating Justin's Baptism on Sept. 5th with family and friends. He was baptized in the Logan Tabernacle that has some family history. His cake was made by "Aunt Becca" and Lizzie.
We tried our hand at growing a garden this year and it has done really well. We planted peas, carrots, cauliflower, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, corn, zucchini and pumpkins.
Tabi could not contain herself! She was sooo excited for her first day of kindergarten. She started the same day as Ben, Justin & Liz. Caleb started the next day. See how happy he was?
