Taylor had a mountain bike race at Snowbasin this weekend. He did awesome even in the really cold weather. Go Taylor!!!

Beautiful day at the temple last week, it's nice to go to the temple during the day more now that all the kids are in school all day. 

We had an outing to the "American Doll Store"  with cousins to see all the adorable dolls and things to go with them. We had a blast! 

We adore little Jane and love to spend time with her, she's so cute! 

We spent a cold day at soccer watching Lizzie play, she did great!!

We doggy sat our friends dog, Bear. He is SO cute and such  friendly nice dog. It was a fun time to watch him. 

We started thinking about Halloween and even bought some pumpkins too, lots of fun in this season! 

Lots of fun with cardboard boxes! The kids love making creations out of these. 

We had our annual neigborhood and ward Fire & Ice party this week. It's a fun outdoor party with homemade chili and ice cream & live music! It was a beautiful warm night and so much fun! 

Emily and some of her friends performed a few songs on the stage. Also Lizzie sung two solos on the stage all by herself. She was SO cute and so brave! I love her little voice, its so cute! 

It was a a wonderful event and such a fabulous night!
We love "Fire & Ice"!

We did Family Pictures at the end of August.  We went up Big Cottonwood canyon right by the river and it was perfect. Kids were cooperative and even Danny too, I bribed everyone with dinner at a yummy mexican restaurant.

I love these faces! 

Taylor had a EHS high school mountain bike race at Powder Mountain this weekend. He did great, but had a bad fall on his bike. We're proud of him and grateful he is trying new sports and pushing himself. He also joined the swim team this week too! 

Here are pics from his race, Emily dressing up with friends, a gorgeous Sunset friday night and Lizzie scored her first goal in soccer and celebrated with a  chocolate milk shake! It was a successful all around. 

Friday after school we spent the afternoon at the zoo, and Isaac earned his wolf at cub scouts. 

We had a great week last week.
Taylor got his braces off, and he was thrilled!
Colton and Megan had a new little baby girl, Lucy. She's adorable!
We celebrated our 18 year wedding anniversary! It's gone by really fast!
Danny has been really creative at making the bed, here is one example. 

For the long labor day weekend we went to Flaming Gorge as a family. We had such a great time boating, fishing, camping, and spending time together outside. We had a great weekend.

We camped for 3 nights at this fun KOA campground It was perfect, showers, pool etc... 

The kids all caught fish, and had fun knee boarding and wake boarding behind the boat. 

The scenery there is incredible! So many beautiful things to see. 

Sunday after church we went and explored the Flaming Glorge dam and it was really cool! We had a fun tour there and saw all the sights. 

On sunday after school we went to the Green River to explore. The water was FREEZING cold, but he kids got in and cooled off anyways. Isaac caught a big brown trout, it as awesome unfortunately the hook wedged into his hand and he was so upset and in a lot of pain until Danny got it out! Ouch!

Labor Day weekend was awesome! We are sad the summer fun is over, and wish it was still summer. We love Flaming Gorge and can't wait to go back sometime soon.
