It's coming along!

It was another excitng night at the lot.
Look how far it has come! The roof is on so at least next
time it snows, everything won't get soaked inside!
Blaine, Stewart, Andy and Charles all worked really hard tonight!

Well.... at least Blaine did!
They were all on the steep, I mean really steep, roof putting on the tar paper.
Here is Andy ... I'm sure he is being very careful.
We don't want another Uncle Grant incident!
It looks like they were just hanging out up there on the tippy top of the roof!


At least they were able to get an amazing view of the Hunter's Moon.
It was MAGNIFICANT!

Thanks boys... for all your hard work tonight!

We almost have a roof thanks to the Smity's!

After a quick sloppy joe dinner, Charles, Uncle Grant, Blaine, Lori and Truman Smith all went to work on the roof. The Smith's are our neighbors and some of our favorite people.


Blaine is a builder and was kind enough to offer to come and help with the roof.
Chalres is learning a lot about all this construction stuff and Truman watched a lot!
We love you Turbo!

Charles is a little... or a lot... afraid of heights, so way to go babe on helping put the roof on!
Lori is AMAZING!! She just get's down to business and helped where ever she could!

It was another successful night at the bunkhouse! Thanks so much to the Smith's for all your help! It is always great to spend time with you guys!

A cold Saturday!

My darling niece Victoria runs cross country for Timpanogos High School and she is only a freshman. Her Region meet was on Saturday. What a day for a 5k! It was totally cold and wet, but that didn't slow her down. Her JV team took first. Good job Tori!

Josie loves her "friend" Tori! She was cheering for her.
I ran Cross Country at Mountain View HS (go Bruins!)
and so I was totally excited for Tori when she made the team.
Being at the meet brought back so many memories. It was really fun.


Next Nick, Tori's younger brother had a football game.

By the time the game was over it was sooooooooooooooooo cold. Charlie had had it!
Even though it was cold, it was so fun to go the these events. It makes me excited for my own kids to be involved with things as they get older. I am afraid that will be here before I know it! Yikes!

Snow already?

Josie was so excited this morning when she woke up, to see 3 inches in our yard. She was ready to go out and play in it, but unfortunately we have early church so she had to wait to play in it after church. The second we got home she ran to get her boots and was out the door. I barely cuaght her to get her coat on.


Her hands were so cold from picking up the snow to eat it,

she found it easier to just bend over and eat it right off the ground.

I am excited for Fall, but I don't think I am ready for Winter... yet. And I just posted how much I am enjoying an Indian Summer. I guess that is good old Utah weather for you!
