more adventures and getting older!

The next 2 posts are things I need to catch up on as far as our adventures in life go...so let me catch my breath and fill you in....
Marc and I went to my nephew Trevor's wedding in Richland Washington. They were married in the Columbia River Temple. Janelle and Trevor are so cute and it was so fun to see family and celebrate with them...even if it was a very quick trip!
My mom, and older brother and sister at the wedding! Fun Family Togetherness!
When we got home we celebrated my birthday with pumpkin pie!! It was so nice to be home with my kids (missing Aves) and I even got a nice new VANDAL jacket!
We had a blast doing pumpkins this year and I bet you can guess which pumpkin is THE BOYS and which one is THE GIRLS! Happy Halloween!!

lots to catch up on.....

We went for a quick trip down south again during spud harvest to a place by Park City, called Midway Utah. It is a cute little swiss village that was just starting to explode with fall colors. We went for a hike to Cascade Springs. We pulled Avarie away from her college studies for a little while! So nice to see her!

We ate at our favorite pizza place in Park City...Maxwells! They have the biggest and best pizza!
We stayed right on the golf course and though there was snow the first day we were there, it got nicer and Marc and Mitch found time for some golf. This was taken right off our balcony!
We also got to explore a Crater in Midway. It is so creepy and cool! It is a hot springs. The water is 65 feet deep and many people scuba dive there year round! There is an opening at the top...but I was still very clostraphobic!

homecoming week of weirdness

A few weeks ago we had homecoming week. This is a week of strange dress up days at school...really strange..... Katelyn and Mary really got into spirit day! Katelyn even wore one of my old dance costumes!

GO BIG BLUE

We have found ourselves make more frequent trips down to Provo this year. We had fun a few weeks ago seeing Avarie and exploring Bridal Veil Falls.

One of the other highlights was going to the BYU game and experiencing our first Cougar Tail! Yum!
It was exciting for me to be back at a BYU football game after 25 years!! Wow I am feeling old!
So I guess you could say we have started a new tradition! GO BIG BLUE!!
