Happy Thanksgiving

For Thanksgiving this year we headed out to Utah to be with my family, We had a wonderful time, and it was great to get to see every one that was there.

7 of the 9 grand kids and one uncle Justin!

The next day Grandma made Turkey noodle soup, with some help from Bostyn and Mclane.

After the noodles were in the pot Grandma made sugar cookie dough and the kids each traced and cut out cookies in the shape of their hand to make turkey cookies.

The finished cookies!

Tavies cooke, he was napping so I decorated it!
We hope every one had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Mini vacation

This weekend Adrian had an extra day off so we decided to have a little mini vacation to Breckenridge Co. It is a beautiful area and we had such a fun time.

Breckenridge is a small ski town maybe one day they will get big enough to get a "W"

Happy Halloween!

We had a fun Halloween this year, even though we were planning on going to Panguitch and couldn't, Mclane was rather bummed. but we did get to go with Amy, Lisa and their kids.

This year Mclane wanted to be Spider man so much that when we got his costume he wore it for two days till I put it away, I was afraid it wouldn't make it till Halloween.
Tavin made such a cute little Vampire I thought Mclanes old costume fit him perfict.
He hated getting in the costume but he let me paint his face with out a problem. ( his eye brows are still black two days later, oops)

Here is our group, It was so fun Amy made dalmatian costumes for all her kids and Lisa's kids then dressed herself us as Cruela Davil.

This was at our churches Trunk-or-treat, no mask so we get to see Mclanes handsome smile.

Tavin with no face paint but a mouth full of candy!
We hope every body had a fun Halloween this year!

The Art Museum

This week my friend ,Bea, and I took the kids to an art museum down in Pueblo.
They have a section just for kids, they can create their own paintings, play on computers, read books, make all kinds of crafts, dress up, or even play mini putt putt.
They have four themes a year and right now it is the wild west.
The boys loved the statue out front. Bea's daughter and Mclanes "Girl friend" is in the back ground.

Mclane loved all the craft projects that there were to do, He was so proud he made this horse all by himself.
Tavin on the rocking horse.


Painting! They made and painted western vests made out of paper bags but they wouldn't let me take a picture of them on.

Tavin had so much fun painting we stayed and painted for about a half hour!
