Thanksgiving Day Hike

NOVEMBER 2010

The men took the kids on a hike after Thanksgiving dinner. Not sure where exactly they went....somewhere in the hills of Blanding. The kids had a great time!

Leaving Jace in the dust.

LOVE this one!

'Cause I am a Material Girl

Sewing. Can I just say...I LOVE it! In honor of mine and Jessica's October birthdays Melissa, Jess, and I hit Material Girls for a skirt sewing class. 3 hours of pure fun! Loved every second of it. Good company, cute fabric, and my Janome...nothing better.

Me and my Asian/Hawaiian/red flowery fabric

Jess and her blue/green checked number

Melissa went with good ole black and white

Now if I could just find a new space to have my sewing table other than Bryan's office I'd be set. His job seriously cuts into my sewing time!

Howdy Partner!

The 2nd grade at our school does a "Wax Museum" every year. It is truly amazing. These kids spend a great deal of time learning things about the person from history that they chose. They make a board, dress up as their person, and stand perfectly still until someone comes and 'pushes their button'.

After pushing Jace's button you would hear, "Howdy Partner! My name is John Wayne. I was born in Iowa. I was a movie star. I played a cowboy. I acted in movies with my sons. I was a football player but had to quit after injuring my knee while surfing. I have blue eyes. My real name is Marion Michael Morrison. People call me "The Duke". I won an academy award."

Very impressive for an 8 yr old if you ask me! Great job buddy! And special thanks to Grandpa Mike for loaning us all of his John Wayne goodies!

Jace's Baptism

Jace has the good fortune of being the youngest of 3 cousins all born within 6 months of each other. They are the best of friends. So, when McKay and Garet turned 8 and were baptized he definitely knew what he was missing! He has been so excited for his baptism day! He was baptized and confirmed by his Dad. Grandpa Mike and Uncle Ryan were the witnesses.

His new favorite story: He got to be baptized 2 times because the first time Dad didn't get his mohawk wet! :)
