Jon is deep in thought.



We went to a park Monday after school. Kids had so much fun posing for the camers.

Syd eating ice cream, getting it all over her face.
Friday night we went up to Lori's house for a girls night sleepover. The boys were all at the Father and Son's. We had a great time: painting nails, facials, eating pazookies, and watching movies. The girls were jamming to High School Musical 2 while Lori and I were watching the Jane Austin Book Club. We had a great time. Then next morning we made some cute Halloween hats.
Lori and I made these witch hats on our girls night. They were so much fun. Cute huh.

We took the kids fishing quite a bit this summer. Wyatt's favorite past time. He really liked it when I took the kids to the park nearby and he was able to fish by himself!!









Our friends got a Bonzai water slide this summer. We spent many days outside watching the kids slide. They had so much fun. Thany you to the Day's for providing many hours of summer fun.







Wyatt is now doing much better. He is still taking oral anticiotics, but his leg looks much better. Wyatt's work has been amazing to give him so much time off and be very accomodating to him..thank you sooo much!!! Thank you to our neighbor Bob, who has been mowing our front yard all summer!!! Thank you to Tom and Lori for all of their help, coming by to visit and everything!!! All of our neighbors who watched the kids!!! We have so many wonderful family and friends who have helped us out this summer.





Wyatt has had quite the experience this summer. It all started in the spring March or April. He scraped his leg on a chair, which never healed up. Then Lexy scrached his leg, then just before Memorial day he scrached it again. So it was the never healing wound. Thats how it started. Well July 9th about he came home from work feeling sick with the chills and his leg was really hurting. The next day he went into work for a few hours, then came home sick. We went into the Dr's office, they put him on a oral antibiotic. The next day his leg had turned beet red, and it had swollen up 3 inches larger that it was the night before. The Dr told us to go straight to the emergency room,frear of a blood clot. We dropped the kids off at the neighbors, they were awesome to take the kids!!! At the hospital they put him on IV antibiotics. He went in the next night for another dose of the antiobiotics. After we came home his leg broke out with blisters that covered his leg. They popped and were seeping liquid. It really didn't help that the next night we went to the neighbors and Wyatt ripped the skin of by scraping it on his bike. For the next 4 days he was going into the hospital every 12 hours for his IV antibiotics. After that he went to the wound clinic at Utah Valley hospital. His Dr bound up his leg and gave him strict orders to go home and elivate his leg otherwise he would admit him into the hospital for the week. Luckily the olympics were on tv.


Syd's first day of school, big 2nd grader. She loves her teacher and class. We go to school on the later track this year. Can I tell you how much I love that. YEAH! Looks like Payson is picking her nose there.


Payson's first day of school. She was so excited. She's not loving school too much these days. Last week her class got into trouble and missed recess. When she was telling us about it, she made it sound as if she was the only one kept in at recess. Then Wyatt asked her more questions and we found out that it was the entire class. She is a little sensitive....

My kids are absolutely crazy over zucchini.


This is our garden. We have had such an abundant crop of zucchini Every day I go out there I pick a new zucchini that is a foot long. We have come up with many creative recipes. If any of you have any outstanding recipes with the zuch please let me know... We also planted tomatoes, canalope, green beans, corn, & thai basil. The green beans didn't quite make it. We are still hopeful for the cantalope.

I love Fall Decorations. I already set up my fall decor. My fav stores are Tai pan trading, Roberts, Scrooge and Marleys and Rod works. They have the best fall decorations. I just LOVE fall, and I love it that here in Utah we actually have seasons.
