Max's B-day

Max is nine. I cant believe it. Max is such a great kid and such a joy to have in our family. This year he celebrated his B-day by going to his first UTAH JAZZ game. Brett and Mason and his friend Jake were the lucky ones who got to go with him. The JAZZ BEAR even signed his shirt. 400.00 seats, 25.00 in snacks, 30.00 in souvenires, 10.00 in parking, the look on Max's face priceless!!!!!! When he walked in the door from the game he gave me a big hug and said " this was the best B-day ever!!!" LOVE THAT KID....

Halloween 2008

I love, love, love, HALLOWEEN... although our kids have decided they want to pick their costumes. I remember the days when I got to pick. Those were the days, this year Max was JASON, Mason was SCREAM, and Sage was a BUMBLE BEE. they had a great time trick or treating with dad and an even better time counting the loot. Sage was way to big for trick or treating this year. She and Hannah went to a party.

Fall in Utah

TWO WEEKS EARLIER

The last few weeks have been beautiful. We had a cold spell at the beginning of the month. Now its absolutely gorgeous here. Fall is my favorite season. I love Halloween, the changing of the leaves, fall clothes are so much funner too. Orange and Brown and Green, Gray and Black too. Here are some pics of the crazy weather in Utah. Today was 74, yea !!! Finally TRICK OR TREATING without coats....

40th B-day

Yes can you believe it... I am officially 40. We celebrated with a couples weekend at the cabin. Brett and I headed up on Thurs, my birthday and went to my favorite restaurant Cicero's, in Park City. Brett out did himself this year. He and the kids decorated the house and got very thoughtful gifts and took me to the cabin for a kid free weekend. The Smith's and the Nielson's came up early on Friday and we went on an amazing ride. The leaves were Awesome. The Mismash's, Braby's and The Watkin's came up that night and all the men went on a ride up behind the cabin (in the dark). They had a great time. We played games and watched movies till the crack of dawn. Margie made me a birthday cake and the gag gifts were hilarious. Saturday the storm moved in but that didn't stop us. I have some pictures of our soggy ride. It was freezing cold. All in All the weekend was perfect we watched movies rode 4 wheelers, sat by the fire, and played golf for hours on end. Thanks for such a great 4 day party..

NIECES WEDDING

Brittany and Chris Kenner
My Nieces Ashlee and Heather
Holmans Salt Lake Temple
Max Sage and Mason

September 20, 2008. Brittany and Chris were Sealed in the Salt Lake Temple. My sister Dana is now officially an empty nester (at the age of 42) . Brett and I thought we were so smart waiting till we had been married almost 6 years to start our family, and having babies well into our 30's. The way that I am figuring it we will be at least 50 something before Masons out. Anyway the day was beautiful. Max and Mason were gift takers. Sage sat at the book... Brittany was a beautiful Bride, I cant believe our little BUBA is married.

PARK CITY

September is so beautiful in Park City. We had such a great time. The weather was amazing (71 degrees). We rode the Alpine slide, and Max rode solo for the first time. He loved it. We ate at Bajha Cantina an old favorite. And hit all the shops in town and at the outlets. I love Fall!!!
