WOW! It is the middle of September

Time is flying! I can't believe we've already had two home swim meets. School has started and we're finally harvesting a few red tomatoes. Yum! All the fall scheduling is in full swing and we've begun planning a sweet sixteen party. It is hard to imagine that Rachel will be sixteen in less than three weeks. We are throwing a chocolate and games party on Sunday afternoon, October 4th. The one thing she really wanted was a chocolate fountain. So we'll be celebrating in style.

We are enjoying the weather which has decided to be summery at last. I've put up beans and carrots and have ordered some apples to make sauce and pies to put in the freezer for this winter. Of course we'll also eat and bake with many of them.

Stephen is working and playing hard during his second year of school. The University of Minnesota Morris has been a really good fit for him. He is president of the Assoc. of Computing Machines chapter at UMM this year and will be helping plan computing contests.

Jeff has been very busy getting ready for the next podcast season of Icebox Radio Theater. And the theater has their own office and recording space this year and he has been working on creating the perfect sound space.

Have a wonderful fall and let us know what you are doing.
Love,
Diane
