Bedroom decor

I finally decided what I wanted for the west wall of my bedroom. I LOVE it! Thanks Ben and Heather for helping me!




Psalms 91:11

Sisters!

This winter, Melanie can down to Johnson with her 'new' car. We girls took the car for a quick test drive to Coryell park and had fun taking pictures!

Chicago

In January, we made a trip to Chicago to surprise Eric. Liz organized the weekend in honor of Eric's recent acceptance into grad school. Congratulations Eric!


On Sunday afternoon, we met up with Marianne, Anna and Katie and went to IKEA. Here are a few pictures. I will add more later....

Oh and yes...we had to stop multiple times so Katie and Anna could get their wiggles out...


LOL!

Baltensperger Baby!

We're excited to be aunt and uncle to Gracie Baltensperger!

What a cutie! Congratulations Ryan and Rachel!

We praise God for her safe arrival!

Mom & Daughter

Nap time!

Thanksgiving and Bowling!

Thanksgiving was spent in Manhattan. On Friday, we had another thanksgiving meal with the Weddle and Sons roofing crew. Josh and Kassi Moldrup, Tim, and several Hondurans were able to join us. After the dishes were done, everyone went bowling. It was a very fun evening.

Our Anniversary

On October 7th, Allyn and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary! Thanks Allyn for a fantastic evening!

LOL! The truck was even decorated compliments of Kristen and Rebek!

Fall Fun ...

Making fresh cider is a tradition in the Baltensperger family. The press my dad uses is from our Great Grandparents. Dad added the motor and hydraulic press for ease. Smart!



This year dad loaded everything on a hay wagon and parked it in the shop! Also, smart!

Allyn was excited to see the process. It's the first year there's been a bountiful crop of apples since we've been married.



Here we are rinsing the apples and mom is cutting out any bruises or bad spots.

Simply put....

Lots of apples + my dad + the cider press = delicious apple cider

Hmmmm! So good!

Updates coming soon....

I successfully ignored by blog for months. Now, I'm back and will be posting again soon.

Hope you are enjoying Spring!
