Harvest Time

We went to the pumpkin patch and got to take a ride on a…well we went on a hayride. Each of the kids and us got to pick out pumpkins from the field of hundreds of different pumpkins! We had lots of fun, going with my parents and Lindsay and her family.

Scary Video

Jeff decided to try on his scary mask for the kids....

Randomness

This Photo is from Lava Hot Springs I forgot Qwin’s swimming suite so we rented one for three dollars.

This Picture is us girls doing our craft at Alpine on our vacation.We made beaded book marks. They turned out way cute.

This is all of the family (minus Zack and Laura’s family) at Jackson Hole. We found out on the drive there that the official name is not Jackson Hole just Jackson. They nick named it Jackson Hole because back in the day when the trappers and such came into Jackson it felt like they where going into a hole because of all the mountains surrounding it.

These Pictures are by the Snake River next to the big kahoona.

Jeff and I got our picture taken in this exact spot on our first anniversary.

Testing my New Computer

There is this option on our new computer that we can post stuff from a program and I just wanted to try it out.

Just Us, Doing Stuff.

We went to Lava Hot Springs on our way home from Jackson hole. We had lots of fun! Logan was so brave and went on almost all the slides. One side he went on he was just tall enough to do and it scared it so so so bad! It was a pretty scary one for a little 6 year old boy. When he went down the first drop he started freaking out and tried curling in a ball and grab the sides of the slide. When he got to the end of the side he grabbed Jeff really tight and said Dad that was really scary.

For the first time ever I jumped off the tallest tower! Last time we went I was almost too scared to jump off the second highest but I did it. This time Jeff and I got to jump together. We counted to three and I jumped and Jeff hesitated. It was all caught on tape and I will post it when I get it from my parents but I think it is funny.

Logan's First Day of First Grade!

Logan loves school. He is learning a lot and enjoying being there all day. He has a wonderful teacher and has lots of friends in his class.

We went to a swimming party at my Aunt Shawna's house a while ago and had lots of fun. Logan and Sienna love to swim and Qwin just loves splashing around in the water. Logan jumped off the diving board a lot, trying to do tricks.

Baby Kittens

We have kittens now! A cat gave birth on our porch about a month ago. One day we came home and smelled the stank of birth. The next morning we saw the remains of birth. Both of which are discusting! Well a few days ago we heard a cat meowing but we couldn't find it. And then two days ago two baby kittens were on our porch. Well now they love us and we love them so they are our kittens. A boy and a girl with two very different personalities and look. P.S. I hate doing posts because they never turn out right! so dont' mind the sideways pictures which I thought I turned but i guess not.

The Last Two Months

Wyoming Vacation

Wow I just noticed I haven't posted anything since June! It is sort of a good thing and a bag thing. A bag thing because I guess for the few people that might be interested in my blog were wondering what was going on. Good because I have been busy with fun vacations, girls camp and Trek. And I have been keeping busy with yard work, cleaning and kid time.

So here is a catch up for the last few months. First of all I cut my hair short. to my shoulders. Which for me is short but not short because yes it was very long but I have had my hair a lot shorter before.

In July I went to girls camp. It was fun. We stayed in the "A Frame" which is a little cabin at the top of all the campsites. There was a mouse, it was cute but it was running around by my bed! We went on a long hike thing that was horrible and some groups got lost for 1 1/2 hours. We played lots of silly games. We sang some silly songs, you know how it goes girls.

After Girls camp my family went on a vacation to Wyoming. We staying in a really nice and large cabin. It has a very large kitchen and lots of bedrooms for us all. It also had a pool table and an awesome wrap around deck. We went and saw an amazing waterfall that jeff and i camped at on our 1st anniversary. We took lots of fun pictures. We went river rafting down the snake river. That was way fun. Jeff and I also did this on our anniversary. We went shopping at Jackson hole and we ate out at Bubba's. We had lots of fun!!

After the vacation Jeff and I went on Trek. We were Ma and Pa for a family of 5 kids. It was really fun and actually not that difficult. Way, way easier than when I went as a youth. We walked about 6 miles a day and it was 3 days long. We ate pretty good and had a fun time in the wind (not).

After we got back from Trek Logan started school! Logan is in first grade now. He loves school so far. He gets to have 3 recesses and a lunch. His teachers name is Mrs. Thacker, she is very nice. Logan also just lost his other front tooth so now he has no teeth in the front.

Wow and in other good news Jeff got a managers position at Million Air. He is doing training right now and is really enjoying it. His schedule will be a little crazy but nothing we haven't done before.

Vegas Vacation, Fun in the sun!

Well Jeff and I decided to go to Vegas for a Vacation this year. We got a really good deal in the mail and said "why not"! We drove about 7 hours to Nevada. We did read almost all of "Catching fire' the sequel to "The Hunger Games", on the drive. I read it out loud to Jeff. It made the time go by a lot faster. One of the things we did is go to the Hash House a Go Go. Jeff got this huge pancake that was so yummy. It was pineapple mango.

Another place we ate at was an Italian restaurant across the street of our hotel. We ordered these stuffed mushrooms. Don't be deceived by Jeff's face, they were very good. Jeff just didn't want his picture taken.

We walked lots of miles up and down the strip. It is a lot farther than it looks. We only would walk about half way down and back for one day. There were lots of bridges that you have to cross to get across the street.

This is inside our hotel, the Wynn. This was in the middle by the entrance. Fresh flower balls were hanging from the tree.

This if Jeff being a dork in our hotel room. I told him to button up his shirt and he decided to button in all the way up and tuck it in and act like a dork. So in revenge I am putting it here on the blog.

One of the nights in our hotel I was waiting for Jeff to grab something from our room and I started watching a game at the casino. It was a large wheel that they spin and it lands on a number. You bet on what number it lands on. The numbers are 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and two different symbols. It starts with 1 having the most spots on the wheel and goes less and less until there is only one of each symbol. So the less spots a number has the more money you can win but the less likely you will win it. Well, we decided to play it since is was only $2 min bet (which means you only have to put down 2 dollars for a bet) and all other games, other than the machines where around $10+. So anyway the lady that was spinning the wheel had hit one of the symbols 3 times in a row. So we decide to put $3 on it. Well she hit it again and we won $120!! It was very exciting. The chances of that spot was 40 to 1.

This is me looking out from the Venetian Hotel.

These are some waterfalls right outside of our Hotel.

We got free tickets to the show in our Hotel called Le Reve. It was part of the good deal we got with our room. These tickets where $150 per ticket. We got really good seats and the show was amazing! It was a circular seating with the show being in the middle. It takes place in a pool of water. They had different things rise up out of the water and they would dance and do cool tricks off of them. They also had water falling from the ceiling and people droping from like 100 feet into the pool. This was by far my favorite thing in Vegas!

One of the days in Nevada we decided to go see the Hoover Dam. It was really amazing. Jeff really liked this part of our vacation.

At the MGM they had a lion exhibit. We thought we would see more Lions and maybe tigers but we only saw these two lions sleeping. The trainer was sitting next to them just petting one. She was crazy, just sitting there getting photographed by everyone.

This statue is the largest bronze statue in the western hemisphere.

This is the New York, New York hotel. This one probably my favorite hotel. It was cool.

This is the Treasure Island hotel. We could see this hotel from our room really good. They have a show that they do outside on the pirate ships. It was a little cheesy but they had a few cool affects.

This is our hotel The Wynn. We stayed on the 60th level, which is the very top level you can stay on. The elevator rides always made our ears pop and we always felt a little sick afterwards.

Our Hotel room was really nice. The view was amazing. We had a window that was floor to ceiling and a huge bathroom.

We also went swimming at the pool but didn't get any pictures of that. The weather was around 100 degrees the whole time so the pool was really nice. We had lots of fun!
