More Provo Fun

 Here are some baggies of frozen peach slices ... we were able to do some for both Heather and Lindsey - won't they make a yummy peach pie when the snow flies?
Keenyn and Olivia had another soccer game Saturday morning ... We sure like that Heather and Lindsey have them on the same team ... sure makes the games fun for us.
 Aunt Sue and Uncle John came over from Denver for her 50th year high school reunion Sat. night.  We loved having them come to the soccer game.
 It is such a beautiful setting - Rock Canyon Park.
 Millie was very happy to meet her Great Aunt Sue - and Uncle John also.  After the game John suggested that he go get some KFC and we'd all have lunch together at a park.  We suggested Kroeber's house instead with all the little ones and so that is what we did.
 Thanks Uncle John for a yummy lunch - fun to have Granny's favorite recipe for fried chicken again in her old house.
Cousins had a good time being together - eating and playing.

Peaches

 Friday morning Grandpa and Grandma went to Lindsey's and helped her can peaches.  It was fun to do it again - we did three batches, plus one tomato and two sheets of frozen peach slices.
Olivia went to school, and came back and we were still at it!!  Love harvest time!  Note sweet Millie on the couch - she is so beautiful...and calm.

Olivia and Millie

 Olivia was holding Millie and 'talking' to her ... reminded me of about 14 years ago and a similar picture of Sydney and Shelby ... all darling granddaughters.
 Millie was really responding to Olivia - so sweet.
 Looks like they are 'singing' to each other - love it.
Sweet sisters - lots of love between them.

Chuckee Cheese

 The Fairbanks and Kroebers had a fun evening at Chuckee Cheese - easy Thursday night dinner!
 All the kids had a ball on the rides and games...Briella enjoyed this one a lot.
 Olivia and the trolley car.
Georgia didn't care if she put a token in the slot or not ... she just climbed on a ride and had a good time!
 Monster Truck with Briella and Sadie.
 Dinner - pizza and salads - yummy.
 More good rides!
Eli and Isaac received the most tickets - and shared with prices with the younger kids.  We all had a good time.

Fairy House

Here is my solar powered "Fairy House" - in my garden with the Garden Knome that Kate gave me last year.  I got these for Aunt Becky and Aunt Sue also - part of the 'sisters' weekend of Danielle's wedding shower in Denver.
Annabelle and I enjoyed it for a few weeks and then I gave it to the Fairbanks girls - here they are on the first night the lights turned on to show the Fairies were home!  Such fun!

More Provo Fun and Dad's fish!

 Cute Fairbanks girls coloring and painting.
 Lindsey lives so close to the Provo Cemetery that I got a mum and took it over there.
 Pretty setting I think.
 Heather came over to take pictures of darling Millie - thanks so much Aunt Heather.
This was viewing audience for the picture taking!
Briella and Georgia got a baby doll and play camera and took their own pictures!
When I got home - Dad had gone fishing and caught these trout - they were delicious!!

Provo Second Week

 Monday, August 31st, I picked up Sydney at the Salt Lake Airport - then we both went to Provo.  She was on her way to Arizona for a roommates wedding - the other roommates were going to pick her up at Lindsey's Tuesday - she slept on the couch as I had the guest bedroom - said she had done that before!
 It was fun for the oldest grandchild to meet the newest!
 Ben Pike had a national conference in Salt Lake - and he took some time to come to Provo - go fishing with Chris K. and tease Eli and Isaac - fun!
 Ben eating and Chris organizing fishing flies for their adventure in the morning.
Grandpa and Grandma Fairbanks stopped to snuggle sweet Millie - they are cleaning up at the YW Camp - painting Bob said - his arms were sore from it.  Enjoyed seeing them - gotta love senior missions.
