November 2015

Our annual trip to the food bank to sort food.  This activity always keeps us humble!



We went to Snowbird for Thanksgiving.  We ate our Thanksgiving dinner at the Cliff Lodge.



We had to bring so much luggage for our holiday weekend.  Ski gear, fancy dinner clothes, swim gear and regular clothes.  Oh my.....







We went to a BYU football game with all our cousins.  It was very cold, but BYU won!  And we all had fun.





First day skiing with Tim.


A friend happened to see us on the ski-cam at Snowbird.  Talk about good timing.



Our annual thankful trees for our Thanksgiving family home evening.



Daddy/Daughter Hoedown for our annual Activity Day Girls activity.  The girls learned the Boot Scootin' Boogie and performed it for their dads.  We had a chili cookout and played cow-girl games!

Annie's soccer team "The Vipers" had a winning season!  She practiced twice a week and had games every Saturday!  She definitely worked hard and made a lot of new friends!



We had a freak hail storm and all the little ice pieces landed in a pile on our deck.



My favorite hiking trail Grove Creek starting to show some leaf color.




Kelli was nice enough to go hiking with me!  I can run for short amounts of time.  Yeah!



Our favorite babysitter is now married and has her own children.  My big girls LOVE to babysit her two daughters.  But the daughters seem to like Carter....ha ha!



I love getting love notes from my kids!

After living in our house for 11 years, we finally finished our garage.  We LOVE the kids lockers.  Everything has a place!

Georgia being silly!

Family pictures (definitely not my favorite year of pictures)

September 2015

Here is our September happenings:

Kelli S. and I headed up to Swiss Days for a Swiss Tacos so she could carb load for the Wasatch 100 mile race.

Georgia decided to be baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  We were so grateful so many family members were able to make it.

We headed up to Tibble Fork with Dan and Dalia.  The leaves are in full color!

 Over Labor Day Weekend, we went up to Snowbird Ski Resort to play.  We went on their mountain coaster.

We took the tram to the top of the mountain.

We played with cousins.

I had the chance to go cheer two of my running friends during the Wasatch 100 mile race.  It was just the dose of inspiration that I needed.  Way to go Wendy and Kelli!

Abby ran for the 6th grade student council.  She had to bring a picture for a poster.

Georgia wore her Minnie Mouse ears for crazy hat day at school.

Carter wore pig tails for crazy hair day at school.

One child left 7 pairs of socks throughout the house.  If she wanted them back, she had to sweep the kitchen floor.

Abby made it into student council!  Yeah! Go Abby!

Annie scored the winning goal at her soccer game!  She has an amazing coach and team this year!

Kelli, Wendy and I rehashed the Wasatch 100 over lunch.  It was even better the second time.  Those ladies are amazing!

Stacey C. use to be our favorite babysitter.  Then she got married and had two children.  Annie and Abby got to babysit Stacey's girls one Friday night.  It was super fun to have a baby and toddler in the house.

 Tim and I have been doing lots of Saturday morning hikes together.

We all went to the General Women's Conference.  We ate dinner at Paradise Bakery before the conference!

I've been hiking up Grove Creek Canyon a lot.  It is so beautiful right now.

Tim and I on another Saturday morning hike.
