You never know what they will bring home from school!

I picked Cameron up after school one day and I just smiled and shook my head.  (Luckily I had my camera in the van)  BYU's line backer #41, Coleby Clawson did an assembly during school and signed autographs.  Cameron just said "What? I forgot my football!"

Dad's job-cut the tops off pumpkins.

Kid's job-clean out and carve pumpkin.

Mom's job- take pictures and make toasted pumpkin seeds.

Everyone is happy!

Halloween

Just when you thought Halloween was over! (Like a few friends of mine I am trying to get caught up so that I can print off a scrapbook of my blog at the end of the year)  Thought I would post a few "Remember when moments".

Cameron dressed up in 2 different costumes this year.  Jim's school always has a nice family party at his school every year.  I think everyone in the town goes to it.  This is Cameron and his buddy Mckay.

Megan is a striking Cleopatra. Katie wanted to be a cat (like Megan last year) Her cat collar says"Princess".  Cameron and two other friends from school were bodyguards.

 

Father son get away

I know- I know how many golf pictures can I post!  I was hoping when cold weather came I would see Brady and Jim a little bit more.  They seem to find ways to get time on the course.  This is from a parent/child tournament in St. George last week.  They had a good time and even took 1st place in their division.  (The prize---MORE GOLF for free at thanksgiving point.)

Question?

Do you ever feel like raising your arms and shouting to everyone in the world  "I love my husband!!!!!!" Or is that just me?

Sundays

Sunday is one of our favorite days of the week.  It is nice to be able to relax and just "be a family".  Most Sunday nights we watch an old Disney.  I have tried for many years to get them to watch my Anne of Green Gables series with no luck.  The girls had never seen it but I convinced them to convince their dad. (After all they do pretty much have dad wrapped around their fingers!)  Everyone reluctantly agreed.  We are on the 3rd Sunday and the 3rd movie of the series.  Thought I would share a few comments from the kids.

Katie-always asking  "What happens next?" 
Braden- always commenting  "She is sooooo weird!
Cameron- "This movie just goes on and on!"
Megan- "I hope this movie never ends!"  (spoken like a true girl!)

food storage

I found a great food storage site at
http://letusprepare.blogspot.com/2009/01/wendy-dewitt-food-storage-seminar.html
It is a series of food storage seminar clips by Wendy Dewitt.  It has gotten me motivated to take a look at how and what more I need to store!  Check it out. 

Zoo

Megan went to the zoo with Jim and I (birthday outing).  It was a nice fall day!

She had heard how cute the new little baby elephant was and wanted to see for herself.

It was in such a playful mood.  We stayed for quite a while!  It was so small!

It is always nice to spend one on one time with the kids.  They grow toooooo fast!

More Golf

Just wanted to post a few pictures of our little annual golf, B&B get away that we have with some friends each year.  We played Hobble creek the first day and Wasatch the next day!

We really did have a great time.  The mountains were so full of colors  and it is always fun being around our friends.

One (well maybe more than one!) of my shots went into the woods.  I walked in maybe one foot to get it and three deer just stood up and looked at me!

We enjoy this little tradition and are looking forward to next year!
