Halloween!!

We LOVE Halloween!

It is one of my favorite days of the year! 

This year the celebrating started early and kept on going...

which is fine by me!!

We are down to only Janey and Abbie dressing up...

they looked adorable!

Gardner Village

Since we had no school today we were able to squeeze in a quick visit to Gardner Village!!

We missed having Kaycee and Jug with us! :(

I love this place...especially during the "WITCHFEST!"

It was so fun to meet up with Leisa, Lindsey and Molly who were there for a little while too!

Reed and Coleman were good sports...especially at the Candy Shop! 

(This picture shows why they May or May NOT be invited back next year!!)

It was a beautiful day, and so much fun!!

We're getting excited for Halloween!!

7th Grade Football

Coleman had a great football season this year! 

For starters...he got his favorite #7 jersey!

Next...he got to be on the Salem Navy team that was coached by his favorite coaches, and had his best friends as teammates!

His hard work earned him starting positions for both Defense and Offense.
He played cornerback and wide receiver.

His team had an awesome season record of 9-2 and made it to the SUPER BOWL!!

Unfortunately, they lost after a tough game!

Sadly, Dad had to be out of town on business for the big game.

But...luckily Cole had lots of other "MANLY" support from both Grandpas, & Reed.

Not to mention some fond parting words from Coach Marziale!

Good Work Coleman...we are already looking forward to next year!

Deer Hunt 2011

It's that time of year again!

Where the boys have extra big smiles!

And so do the girls! ;)

Reed is keeping his shooting streak alive!

He bagged this nice buck on opening day on the south on end of Timp...with his Flinders' Cousins!

Good times for everyone!

Still at it...

It's the middle of October and Reed is still playing baseball!!

With beautiful weather and fall colors to enjoy along with the games...

this is my kind of baseball!!

Happy Birthday Kaycee!!

Kaycee started out her 17th Birthday with a SURPRISE visit/breakfast Friends...

She later enjoyed her traditional lunch with the GRANDPARENTS!

And ended the day with yummy Coldstone Cake and FAMILY!!

(We will pretend the big SAT test didn't happen this day!!)

We LOVE You Kaycee!!!

Happy 17th!!

We LOVE Conference Weekend!

This is one of the main reasons my boys look forward to conference weekend!

This is one of the reasons I do!!

Wonderful messages from our prophet and general authorities...

All in the comfort or our home.

With plenty of FAMILY time before & after!!

One last time...

We had  a great time going down to Grandpa's cabin one last time this year!  It is still so beautiful and such a peaceful place to relax!  The kids had fun doing typical cabin stuff!  This time the boys brought their bows and guns to get things warmed up for the upcoming hunts!  We missed Kaycee...who just seems to get busier and busier. :( We are already looking forward to much more FAMILY time down there next year!!
