Welcome Autumn

There's just something about this time of year that's just fun. :-) Happy Harvest!!!

Potatoe Harvest 2009

This weekend was the annual potatoe harvest. For some reason it seems earlier than usual. Matt and I were talking and we've decided that the potatoe harvest should be an official "Warth" holiday. Last year we did participate and it seemed really weird, like missing Thanksgiving. Anyway this year we got a good haul. We went out twice and probably got several hundred pounds each time. I'm going to try to can some of them for soups during the winter. Also we like to give some away to family/neighbors/coworkers. Amica (the dog) had a blast running a round and the weather was nice. All in all the was a good harvest "holiday" - can't wait for next year. :-)

Amica

Our home has grown by four paws and a tail. :-) This is Amica (Italian for friend). We adopted her from the Pocatello shelter on Saturday. She is a great fit in our family and a well mannered dog. She is probably almost pure German Shepherd and about a year old. She already has us wrapped around her "paw" but we're really glad to have her. :-)

She loves to hang out on the porch and wore herself out "helping" us pick up potatoes this weekend. She help consisted of finding a puddle to get muddy in, chasing potatoes we threw, and trying to take potatoes out of our buckets. :-)

This picture was taken by the shelter. I'll post some more when we get a chance to take them (we're having too much fun playing to stop and take pictures.) :-D

Our Garden

Our garden did really well this year. Of course so did the weeds. :-) Yesterday we harvest everything but the root crops because we've started getting frost.

Now I just have to find the time to can/freeze everything.

Camping Sept 18-20 2009

We've been really busy lately but we've been able to find some time for fun as well. We went camping at big Springs the 18-20 of Sept. Here are some pictures. :-)



The nice new truck makes the camper look like it needs a paint job huh?


Matt likes to sneak pictures of me. . . .


Here's one of him :-)


Thank goodness for cameras with timers. :-)







Here are some pictures of the campground and our campsite. Maybe next year we can get some of our family to join us.
