Christmas 2014

 Christmas Eve. Enjoying some music.

 Aubrey and mini Cadbury eggs.  A whole bag just for her.

 Breakfast burritos YUM.

 One day a year that I don't mind a mess.

 Just Dance 2015.

 New stockings.  I'm kinda in to snowmen.

 Meet "Mo" the moose.

 Isn't he adorable.

 Out takes from taking pictures in Logan.

State DYW

 Finally ordered the pics from State DWY.  They were available until Dec. 31st.  Hesitated,  because they were pricey, but we decided on three we just had to have.

 The music to this was a great song by Frank Sinatra.  Each girl had to twirl at a particular part during the song and Aubrey's twirl was captured at such an adorable instant.

Picking her question.  What would be your summer dream job?

October 2014 Happenings

OH NO !!! A ZOMBIE    for HOMECOMING WEEK

 They dressed up in a different way every day, but this was the only picture taken.

 The parade.  Curtis, Courtney and boys had just arrived in Malad just a before the parade.  They came for General Conference and Fall Break.

 Nathan,  ready and waiting to go to the Conference Center for the Saturday afternoon session.

 Dad, Aubrey, myself and the younger boys enjoyed Temple Square.

 Bracken was a bit shy about going closer to the statue, but he really enjoyed his time there and soaked up everything.

 We had as many fire pit sessions as possible.  These boys are now very good at cooking Woof ems.

 

Nathan got to go fishing with Tony and grandpa.   They woke up very early, caught two fish and then the men hurried on to work.

 We cooked the fish, in a frying pan on the fire pit ,on the last night.  It tasted pretty good.

Labor Day

 We wanted to see what Cherry Hill water park and camp ground was like. So, we called to see if a tent site was still open, since it was Labor Day week end.  I had tried Bear Lake.  Also need to learn about that place.  Bear Lake required a 3 day minimum at the KOA.  We only had Sunday night available for leaving Malad.

 Never camped on nice grass before.  It certainly is not messy.  The tent sites are close together, but we had  one space empty on one side and two spaces on the other. There is a trailor park next to Cherry Hill.  It is not too dumpy.  

 This summer we have had this gas fire pit and it is very wonderful to pull out quickly and roast up something.

 It is also nice to just have on, to see a fire ,and keep warm.

We tried to think of things Aubrey could do.  Her doctor had not cleared  her for swimming or to submerged  the surgery site in water. Miniature golfing worked out well.  It is part of all the Cherry Hill attractions.

got the sunflowers

We finally got BIG sunflowers.  The package said they would grow 4 feet. Just wanted them for some shade.  The pumpkins most likely will not make it to full maturity this year, but we tried.  July fourteenth, with a cool spell, just is not enough time to get huge.

A Senior Dragon Lives Here

Aubrey brought home the sign for the window.  I think they are way cool!
