#91: Potty Train Little Man

It took almost an entire summer, but I'm going to declare Little Man potty trained (although #2 is still in progress...).

#25: Attend a Ladies Weekend Conference

I was fortunate to attend a Living Proof Live event in Charlotte in late July with some sweet lady friends. After a particularly tough year, I found the topic of "Hold Fast" to be a perfect lesson/reminder. What a blessing!

#10: Go Apple Picking

We were able to go apple picking for FREE thanks to some sweet friends with an abundance of apples on their apple trees. Little Man ran around with a buddy while I talked to his mommy and picked way too many apples. I made apple butter, canned sliced apples (for baking or to be pureed into applesauce), made 5 apple pies, and ate a lot of fresh apples. Lots of fun!

#26: Read 15 Books (21/15)


Just finished this book...didn't enjoy it as much as I was hoping. She is a very funny & honest writer. I was literally laughing out loud many times.

#26: Read 15 Books (20/15)

Dorothea Benton Frank always makes for a great beach read. I enjoyed the characters in this book, but it wasn't one of my favorites. I wasn't crazy with how it ended up, but my love for the people overrides the ending.


#26: Read 15 Books (19/15)

First book I ever read on a Kindle. It was great! I cried - like the ugly cry - on the plane to Seattle. Finished it on the way home. Loved every moment of this book!


#26: Read 15 Books (18/15)

The Dirty Life was a great non-fiction read. So fun to read about how a non-farmer married into farming. Maybe I can relate because I was about as non-farmer that you could be and at this very moment I have 15 gallons of tomatoes waiting to be canned (just from today's gathering!).


I feel like I've missed a book or two, but now I can't remember what I've read - oh well! This is good enough.
