A Hunting we will go.....or at least Karl will.....

Karl and his Dad (and other family members) went hunting a couple of weeks ago up Spring City Canyon. Karl just went along for the ride and his dad got this nice Buick. Karl said he had a great time; but, that keeping up with his dad was really hard. Roy is in great shape. Here are the pics for that event:

Karl in his hunting gear.....or Hawaii "want to be in" outfit??

Karl's Dad, Roy, and his Buck.....how about some deer jerky Roy???

We should be getting more pictures soon and will post them as soon as possible.

Kolton, Kolton, Kolton....

Kolton had a "Murder Mystery" party with his High School Drama Club. His part in the Party is a "Scottish Businessman"....So I had only a few hours to sew a kilt....and here it is.....


His dad was nice enough to make his little "purse"
(I don't know what it is really called).....of course Utah could be apart of it..... :-)

It wouldn't be Kolton if there wasn't playing around....
here he is showing off the pleats on the back of the kilt.

Happy Halloween!! Part Three......

We went back to Utah for Halloween so I have more pics of Kaylee.....she also cut off her long hair. It was hard for me at first; but, she kept reminding me that it was for a good cause, "Locks of Love". She is definitely right!!! I had my hair cut on Friday morning and Kaylee really wanted hers done too, so my dear friend Tracy cut her hair Friday night....she is so sweet!!


Kaylee and I just before she went "Trick or Treating with her friends"

Kaylee just before her hair was cut!


Tracy making the final cut......

Tracy holding up the two pony tails she cut from Kaylee's Hair...THANK YOU Tracy for being such a great friend and doing this favor for Kaylee....we love and miss you!!

Kaylee holding her hair....it will now go to "Locks of Love"....
I will get some great pics of her new hair do soon.

Happy Halloween!! Part One....Our first adventure!


So our Ward had a "Trunk or Treat" tonight so we all decided to go and have some fun.....
There was food, games and a lot of treats.


We decorated the truck (so I guess we were a "Truck or Treat").

Dinner favorites: Hot Dogs, Chips, Drinks and Krispy Kreme Donuts!

Here is one of the games....eating Krispy Kreme's off a string.....yum!

In case I forgot to tell you, I left Karl for this hot old guy!

Kaylee's waiting to play a game.

Kolton is so dramatic!

CIMI Trip continues......

Kaylee is back from her trip to Catalina (CIMI) and brought pictures with her. She had a great time and talked for hours about the trip (a moment by moment recap). She is having a great time at her new school and the opportunities she is being given are fantastic. This a was a great hands on experience...plus, we didn't have to worry about fighting teachers about missing school....her teachers went on the trip with her!

Kaylee is off to Catalina.....

Kaylee is off to the Catalina Island Marine Institute (CIMI)......She is so excited and although we miss her we know she will have the time of her life........

We got up at 1:40 this morning to get her to the School for the big trip to Catalina!


She is so excited to get going......

She was trying to get on the bus without saying goodbye....

But, she turned around just in time to smile and say goodbye.....


Karl thinks it is so cool that Kaylee is so happy about this opportunity!!
