Dear Family,
We hope you are all doing well. We are doing well here in Nephi.!
This past month has been a good one. We are enjoying our garden. It sure is growing fast. It is fun to see the watermelons and the cantaloupes coming on. They are getting ready to be harvested. (In fact, we called Mom and Dad to come and enjoy our first watermelon today. It was sweet and crisp.) It leaves us a little "meloncholy" though, because we know that it means summer is over.
Jim has been busy "jerking" honey the last week. We are hoping for a good crop. We are excited to also announce that the insurance company finally forked over $50,000 to pay for the loss of our bees in Vegas. Now we have enough to pay for the bees we were buying to replace them. On the 23rd of August, Jim had a very productive birthday fishing with Grandpa T. at Fairview Lakes. They had to call it quits early because of rain, but not before they pulled in 8-10 large trouts. They both had large grins on their faces.
Over Labor Day weekend, Mary got the stomach flu and Roseola. She got over the stomach flu in a day, but it took a week for the roseola to go away. (Nice rhyme.) Mary is growing like a weed. She is learning new words every day. Two new words are "Bampa" and "belbow." That translates to Grandpa and elbow, respectively. She will be 18 months old in 13 days. My! Time sure does pass quickly!
Thanks for all of you love and support.! We sure do appreciate you all!
Love,
The Tres Nephites
