civilization it actually quite far away from us, we have a store in town that opens at 7 and closes at 6, most of the things like raisins or candy are stale or dried out, much of the meat has the the red die almost gone so it looks bad and overall the prices are horrific, there is also a gas station in town, but the gas from it makes my check engine light go on.
the next closest place to buy anything is in Roosevelt 30 min away, they dont have much, pretty much 1 grocery store and a "one stop shop without walls" which is a grocery store an ace hardware and a radio shack, the selection is pretty poor and there is nowhere to buy toys which is probably good.
we decided to take a trip down to the Utah valley which is a 2 1/2 hour drive, but we had a wonderful time down there, Spencer has been so busy with this job that he works nearly every day of the week even his days off, so getting out of town where no one could call him in was very nice. We were able to stay with my grandma which was really fun for the kids because they hadn't seen her since we moved. we also were able to visit with Spenser's brothers families who live down in the valley, we had such a wonderful time seeing them and are amazed at how big all of the kids are getting, we had supper over at Eric and Mandy's beautiful new home, it was absolutely delicious! the best chili I have ever had!
We also were able to get some wood for Spencer to make a few side tables to hopefully sell.
last of all but not least we went to the Pumpkin patch of which I will blog about as soon as my pictures finally upload (there are 350 since I have not had a computer to dump them onto until now.)

We were so glad to see you guys too! Hyrum is still talking about Abe, Zach and Logan from Sunday. Cute pix from the punpkin patch-there's just something about picking out their own pumpkins that gets the kids totally excited!
