Stranded at the Drive-In

Here we are at the drive in just hanging out waiting for Ice Age 3 to start. The movie was so-so but we had a good time. The weather was fantastic.

Mountain Trip and Pictures




We found this old pointless and breaking bridge up Logan Canyon and thought it would be fun to take its picture. Just another Saturday around here...The mountains are just perfect these days.

A Good Belly Laugh

These are pretty funny. Jefferson is a riot.

Highlights of the Sledding Trip



You probably had to be there, but this was about 10 times more fun than it actually looks.

Snow Angels, as requested.

Dallin Rocking Out.

Kaitlyn after a hard ride still has the composure to pose for the camera.

The ensuing event of Katie crashing on her face was the best laugh of the day. Its probably not hard to tell from the look on her face that, in her mind at least, death is a possibility. As the following picture shows well:




Rylie Jean Barton.

Mike is taking Jenna down the hill on a sled and they are getting clobbered. Jenna is under all that snow with a ski hat pulled down over her face.

Braum spraying a commercial for the Cowboys.

Jenna is the image of snow bunny.

Here is a picture of Cade, the boys and Mcks cousin. He is a cutie.

Spooky Halloween Fun


The boys went to two Halloween parties before the big day. Jefferson was a hit as a teddy bear. He wanted to wear his costume at all times and would crawl around and growl at us. He doesn't know how to say very many words, but one of his most clear ones is now candy ("canny"). Truman was a ninja and had his swords confiscated more than once and Lincoln was black Spiderman to the first party and to school, but when Halloween came he had found a dinosaur costume Mike and Jess gave us and decided to switch it up. He and Truman still dress as Spiderman at home some days. McKinley wore a pumpkin hat and ghost shirt. What can I say, the fourth child gets no costume at this age:) I guess it is what Lincoln wore for his first Halloween too.

The highlight of my Halloween was seeing Jefferson chase a donut on a string like a mad man. He was running in circles as fast as he could with his mouth open for five minutes! It was hilarious! I also enjoyed hearing the boys say "trunk or treat" to all the people handing out candy when we went to Gramere's ward trunk or treat. We also enjoyed visiting the pumpkin house with the Elggrens where we saw a hundred exquisitely carved jack-o-lanterns.

Hope you had a spooky and fun Halloween!
