Allen's Breadbox

Where the good "crumbs" gather!

Outdoors is where I like to spend most of my time enjoying nature. Spring gets me out to turn dirt, I love the smell of soil. Summer, I get drawn to the mountains and lakes to refresh. We get up early to trailride the horses, on a hot day, we'll lead them down to the river and go for a swim. My husband works such long hard hours at his excavation business, that we feel really lucky when we finally get to spend a sunset with him on his McGregor sail boat. Before we know it fall and winter come with the holidays. But we love the snow because it shuts the excavation down and we have a daddy around to snowmobile and snowboard with. So you can see we really are the outdoors type. If we do happen to get cooped up in the house, you can bet there will be some action in the kitchen. We are famously known around town for Daddys almost Healthy Bread and Country Boy syrup. On a indoor note, I also enjoy cuddling up with my Schnauzer to read a good history book. Love reading with the kids too. When I find time, the running sound of the sewing machine is so soothing to my soul. On top of all this I try to practice daily on the piano and my French horn. Goodness, talk about working hard at being well rounded crumbs. Wow, blogging is a wonderful way to count my many blessings. Hope you enjoy our site.

Gulls farewell Concert

For all the things we do in our lives, sometimes we our blessed with special gifts that we can share with others.

Gull has been very fortunate to be involved with Choral Edition for the last five years making many new friends and developing talents. The month of May was the last month that he would sing with this group. They are made up of young people from 5 different school districts and are all very talented. We have been able to see them perform in many different places such as the tabernacle, Temple square, Joseph Smith memorial building, Christmas parties, Dinner theatres, and probably some of our favorite memories would be the many sacrement meetings that they were able to perform at and bring such a great spirit into the meetings. We thank the directors of Choral Edition Mark and Jeanette Bischoff for there great examples and leadership.
