A Fall Hike

I love the fall! We want on this awesome hike just up past our house. There is an old Ski lift and an amazing view of Monticello. I sure love it here. The weather is cooling down and I'm craving pumpkin chocolate chip cookies and apple cider!

The Hunter

Tyler got a deer this year-it was just a depridation tag, so he could only shoot a doe. He was still happy to get one though considering it has been 7+ years since the last time. I made the pic black and white so the blood wouldn't be so gross:)

An Elder's Quorum Lesson

Tyler had to teach Elder's Quorum and the lesson was on the Relief Society organization. He used this as his centerpiece and the hand-outs even had magnets on the back-it was pretty funny. I think the "Scentzy" was the best part about the whole thing-so typical mormon woman....

canning

Allie is always front and center when it comes to working. We did plum jelly and syrup, apple sauce, and peaches this year. Gotta' love the bounty of somebody else's harvest!

Cloe

Love em'

This is what happens when I put Cloe down. She is like a magnet.

















Allie found a caterpillar and LOVES it! She wants to sleep with it and take it everywhere.

girls, girls

Where do we sleep?

Backyard Fun

A Great Weekend

Tyler's neice Angela has been called to serve in Baton Rouge Louisiana. We all went through the temple with her as a family. I love doing that. We also Celebrated Tyler's parents 50th Wedding Anniversary on Friday. I sure love them. On Saturday night we had a spontanious cookout at Foy Lake with a little fishing and we brought the canoe. What a great weekend we had!

A little family time

This is Cloe's favorite position...her face squished in Tyler's hand.

A visit from Alta

My lovely Alta came to visit from Winnemucca for a week before school starts-she is almost 17, yea I know she looks older... It was great having her. Here we are showing off our first place ribbon on some cookies we made for the fair. The next picture is of her and my nephew. We don't have couches in our basement yet, so pillows will have to suffice. I like to call this formation the "pyramid".

Allie's first fish

She couldn't stop smiling, and she didn't want to put it down! She reeled it in all by herself-Tyler was pretty proud of his girl. Especially since this is his favorite lake in the whole world and has many memories of fishing here as a little boy. This lake is just right up our street 10 minutes away.

Cloe's blessing

Cloe is wearing the dress my Aunt Tammy was Christened in-and my sister Tye made the little bootys. She was pretty little thing- but it was hard to get a good picture considering our crazy morning.
My mom was the proud Grandma holding her 12th grand baby- not bad for a woman looking as good as she does.
