GRANNY'S BIRTHDAY BASH

The adorable birthday granny!

Sisters!
Why are both of you hunching down? I thought we were all the same height!

Burks & Kells listening to the poem uncle Ben wrote for Granny.



No smiles from sassy sisser for this photo shoot!
All of us grizzies.
We were only missing two (Nate kitty & Jeff Honey).

All the great-grandkids.

Granny and Grandpa's beautiful grandkids.
We haven't been all together for a really long time because of missions and such.

Some of the girl cousins!

Yay for acting like grizzies!

COSTUMES, COSTUMES & MORE COSTUMES





RANDOM FALL FUN

Fun Run
Ammon taking off like a crazy man! It was a 1 mile run and he took off like it was a 40 yard dash. I was screaming at him to slow down but he didn't listen. It was so funny to watch him sprint out like that...he looked so wild!

He is still rockin it at the halfway point.

He won the kindergarten race and ran back to cheer on all his buddies and the kids in his class. I was so proud of him. There is no doubt this kid is going to be a runner. Sprinter or distance runner? I guess we will see.


Indie loves to pull around the little kiddos.


Jeff was out of town so I packed up the kiddos and we headed to Soda to have some fun and enjoy the great fall.

Opening day = Good shooting


Burklee loves geese...I think they are her favorite animal. Papa asked her to give the goose a kiss...pretty sick! Thanks papa!


Me and Ammon got in a few good rides. He started to get a little crazy after a while and learned his lesson. He took the corner (in the picture) going about 20 mph and ended up in those little willows you can see. He did managed to stay on the bike. I asked him what the nack he was doing and he said he was racing me back to the shed. I wonder where he got his competitive nature?




What a mess!


These two sneak into the pantry ALL DAY LONG! I think they watch me to much!

DID I MENTION I LOVE FALL?

Fall has been amazing this year...we have tried to get out and enjoy it as much as we can. Here are some pictures from September.
Pretty tough ride...good thing the views were great!

The Boy's First Day of School

Loving the fact that he gets to ride the bus. He thinks he is so big now!



Fall Soccer...he has 4 buddies from the neighborhood on the team. They are such a fun bunch to watch.


Riding every chance we get because of the great fall color!

Hiking with friends for family night.


Teaching the the boy to ride...HE LOVES IT!


Gorgeous!

Hunting season

What a great time of year! I love being able to enjoy 4 seasons but fall has always been my favorite. I look forward to it every year. I absolutely love everything about it.

GRAINSTOCK

Grainstock started out as a small gathering of farmers a few years back. This year grainstock went big time. The day started with a Fun Run. Later that morning there was a trap shoot out at my dad's house. In the evening they had local entertainment followed by a delicious dutch oven dinner. After dinner we got to hear the Aaron Ashton Band, Baxter Black & Due West. Talk about a great way to spend the day.
One of my favorite quotes.

Me and my cousin Tony ready to run the fun run... farmer style!

Wishing I wasn't wearing overalls about now!


Ammon trying to make some money at the trap shoot.


Baxter Black on stage out at the grain bins.


My little farmer.

The twins even stayed up late for the concert.

Bad pic...great band! Due West on stage putting on a great concert. I think the concert got over sometime after 11 pm. It was so much fun to be surrounded by grain fields and listening to great music.
