Thanksgiving/Reuinion Weekend

Get ready for ALOT of pic's
Cayden the "pirate" diggin in. Grandma and Grandpa had a pirate ship and the works and the boys absolutely loved it.
The "babies" as they are always referred too. Sitting by the door as mommies left.
And were off...... Hills and I leaving to bike to the Turkey Trot. It was so much fun!

Croquet Anyone?

Emery and Grandpa watching the game in action.
This is my HOT hubby whooping everyone!!!
Grandpa Rowley, love this man!!!
Cayden still in pirate form playing with the big boys!!

The apron gang

Boys playing football, not sure why they are still wearing their aprons, hmm???
Look at Clayton's height on this one!!
The "Gang" all in our aprons that Kristi made us. They all had our names on them, sooo cute! OH btw, notice the 3 boys in the back? Do they know how to be normal, I think not!
Ally also got an apron with her name on it and a cook book. She is so excited to help in the kitchen more.

Fun At Amazing Jake's

This was the frog jumper ride and Gavin was not sure about it at first.
Dad and Ally on the bumper cars, my kids thought they were in heaven.
Cadyden getting ready to ram his Dad and Sis.

The pedi's!!!! Oh so nice, minus the workers kids running around and baby crying. I'm not sure but isn't a pedicure supposed to be relaxing and away from your children?????
He loved the childrens area at Amazing Jake's, you would never know in about 10 minutes from now he starts puking his guts out and is soo sick. Poor baby!!
Ally looks a little unsteady don't ya think?
We didn't spin much but from the look on Gavin's face you would think we had just spun like crazy!
This is the picture of him liking it. I didn't get these in the right order,sorry. I love Cayden with his arms up!!

Only 2 weeks left!!!!

Yikes! Less than two weeks left until the sprint triathlon in Anthem!!! I am so happy to be doing this event, I only wish I had a few more weeks to train. I am doing the triathlon Dec. 8th and am pretty dang excited. Last weekend while we were in AZ. for Thanksgiving Hillary (my sis-in-law) and Mary (my cuz) and I did a bike- run combo and it was tough. It was sooo stinkin windy and cold and I just was not used to that. Honestly there came a point that had I stopped pedaling I would have either gone backwards or fallen over from the fierce wind. Let's all pray for good weather on the 8th!!! OH well as long as I finish the race I will be happy. I am not going for a medal, this time. LOL!
Back from Az. WE had a great Thanksgiving in Az. WE had a reunion with Trav's side of the family. It was alot of fun and his mom and Richard put a lot of work into it. Thanks! I am soooo excited to try out my new pressure cooker canner and make homemade jams and jellies!! YUMMY!!! We are happy to be home but really missing living close to so many family and friends. It is hard whenever we go home we wish we lived there. I will be posting some pics soon of our weekend. We had pedicures, croquet (sp?), marshmallow wars, Amazing Jakes, and Turkey Trot. A weekend full of fun, can't wait to go back for Christmas!

Halloween Shirts





This is the kids in their "HALLOWEEN" shirts they wore to school on Halloween. I loved Ally's hair, we did it like this so when she wore her "Hannah" wig her hair wouldn't hang out.

Halloween Party

This was at our ward Halloween Party, it was alot of fun! Isn't Travis SCARY! It was great, nobody knew who he was

Cayden playing a gross game where he had to reach into the box and touch something gross and guess what it is.
Ally playing the donut game. This was soo cute. They had the kids lay down with donuts strung on yarn above them and they had to see who could eat their donut first. "Hannah" did pretty good!


"Trick or Treat"

Grady was a STINKIN cute skunk, LOL!
Cayden sure loves anything ARMY and insisted on being an army guy AGAIN. Maybe when his uncle Jon is done with the army he won't be quite as obsessed with it.
Presenting......Hannah Montana! She was so excited about being "Hannah" for Halloween she even chose what clothes "Hannah" would wear! I am pretty sure she is a 16 year old trapped in a 5 year old body.
The "GOOD witch". When I told the kids I was going to be a witch for Halloween Ally made sure I was going to be a "Good witch and not a Bad witch".
"Hannah" and a few friends at the ward party!

Schnepf Farms

We went to Az over the weekend to see Emily one more time before she leaves for Germany! ( I am going to MISS her soooo much) and while we were there we went to Schnepf Farms. It was fun to be there with my family, Trav's family and my good friend Danielle came. Thanks everyone!

Round and Round the Merry Go Round!!!
The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round!

Cayden Loved these bikes and went around and around the course!
This roller coaster is new since last time we went. Of course that was 6 years ago. LOL! It was a good ride, I Love that Cayden and Braeden had their arms up the whole ride.
Kamryn and Ally BUG going on the honey BEE ride
Check out his FACE I love it! He is so intense in everything he does.
All tuckered out! The HEAT there was insane, I don't know how I lived there for 25 years!
