Bringing Up the Baby Shower

I'm am pretty belated in posting the baby shower pics for little Max Allan and mom. The decorations were so darn cute, I have to do it. Breann headed up the decorations, which included a miniature four-wheeler centerpiece, Japanese lanterns and garland. She also made cupcakes and sugar cookies. Alicia sent out invitations. Mauri and Brayle made their famous caramel brownies and chocolate chip cookies. I provided the house and of course healthy snacks. Julie baked three dozen fresh rolls for chicken salad sandwiches. Our great family supported the effort. In addition to seeing Jory and Sarah's new baby, Max, they also met Henry. The two little boys were oblivious of each other. However, Henry did have fun meeting some of the other babies and young children that came with their parents.

Schmidt's Signs of the Times

Wheeler Farm and Utah State University has commissioned Allan to make dozens of signs for their new gardens as well as the entrance sign at Wheeler Farm. Foot bridges were also ordered. When they are installed we will take you on a tour of the gardens and signage. We know you want to see them. Cousin Richard saw a sample sign when Al sallied up to his greenhouse to show them off. The similar signs will also grace the gardens of Schmidt's Greenhouses. This wood maker is becoming quite the expert at these timely signs.
