Connor and Jacob's ordination

Congratulations to Connor and Jacob who received the Aaronic Priesthood at Mike's home on Sept. 19, 2010 - more amazing Meinzer priesthood holders!

pear jam and leather

Michele ordered some pears thru her ward and brought them to Meinzer Headquarters to can. We made 32 jars of pear jam (great on pancakes and waffles!) and 12 rolls of fruit leather. Not bad for a mornings activity!

Nicole's Volleyball Schedule

I just thought you would all like to know that I made the Lehi High School volleyball team! I'll probably play sophomore for the whole season, and definitely back row for the whole season because I'm too short to play front row.


Sophomore games start at 4:00, JV is at 5:15, and Varsity is at 6:30
Usually its around $5 per person to get in. Sorry. Its lame, they should be free, but people try to take your money whenever they can.

Heres my schedule-

Sept. 9- Lehi VS Timpview, home
Sept. 14- Orem VS Lehi, away
Sept. 16- Lehi VS Mountain View, home
Sept. 23- Provo VS Lehi, away
Sept. 28- Westlake VS Lehi, away
Sept. 30- Lehi VS Timpanogos, home
Oct. 5- Timpview VS Lehi, away
Oct. 7- Lehi VS Orem, home
Oct. 12- Mountain View VS Lehi, away
Oct. 21- Lehi VS Provo, home
Oct. 26- Lehi VS Westlake, home
Oct. 28- Timpanogos VS Lehi, away
Nov. 2- Lehi VS Lone Peak, home (this is the Dig Pink match that raises money for breast cancer, and its Lehi and Lone Peak- 2 awesome teams- so this is the one you won't want to miss!)



Thanks for all your support with volleyball, and we hope you can come!!!

Last day of School...Utah version

It wasn't too warm, probably only 70 degrees, but who can resist slip sliding on the last day of school/first day of summer vacay? Here's a few shots at the Meinzer/Smith kids in action.

Last year Jared cut out a bunch of bushes and started clearing the land below the shed. Then this year we rented an excavator and Jeff leveled the land, pulled out a tree and built some retaining walls. Then Jeff, dad and Frank put up this fence around the area and we are going to have a cornfield inside! Also to the left, above the smaller retaining wall there will be about 10 blueberry plants - yum!! Thanks to all the guys for helping!

This is our new Coleman pop-up tent trailer. The Zufelts are taking it on it's first trip Memorial Day weekend.

Our orchard is so beautiful right now and every single tree has fruit on it. We have peaches. apricots, pluots, apples and cherries. We will have to cover them all next week to keep the critters out, and if we are successful we will have the best crop of fruit in 21 years!!

Bounty from Headquarters

Brynn found our first egg! We now get about 5 or 6 a day.

These artichokes are yummy! We got at least 10 from one plant.

Great strawberries!

Green peas that were delish!
