Jason got out the power tools and carved pumpkins with the girls.

Hunter ready to go out on the town.

Halle came up with her own costume. She went down in the container of dance costumes and came out with this witch costume. Halle is very crafty.

This is the 2 annual Halloween Garage Party. Everyone brings food and we sit and watch trick or treaters. I highly recommend it!

Doesn't this look fun. The best weather and best friends. Super FUN!

This is Lanny and his boys.

So sad! Lanny, not the boys.

Hunter and her friends counting their loot.

The best Halloween ever.

Disneyland 2011

We were planning a trip to Disneyland and after talking to the Edwards (they go every year) and talking to the Barlows (they want to go every year) it ended up that we were all going the same week.

YIPPEE!
Jason enjoying himself at Disneyland. I hope he is checking out the new app for Disneyland. It tells you how long the waits are for the rides. It is a cool app. Or maybe he is looking at Monster Muleys, who knows.

One of the favorite ride, Thunder Mountain Rail Road.

Was I ever that sweet? (NO!) Hunter and her best friend Lauren went around holding hands. AAHHH.

Good thing it wasn't Issac. (I don't think Isaac would have gone for that.)

Best Buddies.

Indiana Jones.

Terry and Margot= Die Hards!!!

Lucas and Halle

They went on 2 different rides together where they encountered barf!
They were barf magnets.

Edwards-Barlows-Willis-Hawkins

It was a great day at Disneyland. We had great weather the first day and then all heck broke loose the next day. I will post more rain pictures later.

We love Disneyland.

YIPPEE!

Fireplace redo

I have wanted to paint this sweet fireplace for a couple of years. I recently got a bid from a painter and he told me it would be $400.00 buckaroos! I hate paying someone to do something that I could probably do, so here goes. I went to Four Chairs in Orem and got some advice. She told me I could be done by the end of the day. Wrong! I wanted to go slow and steady. It took me one week.

Jason wasn't a fan of me doing this but when he came home and saw this, he had to start seeing the vision. I was practically crying after this picture was taken. This was after sanding and painting 2 times. I was so mad that I tried to do it. I had ruined the fireplace.

This is the final result. Not to bad! I am pretty happy with the results. Is it perfect? NOPE! But I tried and did something that I had wanted to do for years. I now have to tackle the banister going downstairs. The bid for that was $1300.00. I bet I can do it for cheaper. I better get something good from Santa this year!

Fall Bike Ride

We went with our neighbors the Sandstroms on a bike ride down Provo Canyon. We have been trying to get together and do this for years. Finally we did it. It was perfect weather and the scenery was beautiful.

Jason loves a good close-up.


Hunter was on her cruiser bike. She did awesome, other than the time she ran into a sign and was inches from going in the river.

Halle did great too. Her bike was making a weird noise so she was paranoid the entire time that something bad was going to happen to her bike. Why is she so paranoid?JK

Speeder!

We ended the ride at Utah Lake. It was a great time. We we definitely be doing this next year.
