Thanksgiving 2010

For Thanksgiving, we had my parents over as well as Nate and Brian and their families. It was a wonderful dinner. Afterwards, people slept and we played Uno and Hangman with the kids. Here are some pictures of the main characters at the Thanksgiving feast:

Jaimee and Brandon's Birthday Party, November 2010

Hi All,

Jaimee and Brandon's birthday party was a smash hit. As you can see the cakes were great; Jaimee delighted everyone with a dance and Brandon lined up all his presents in a row. It was fun to see everybody at the party.

Zoo Trip with Brandon and Jaimee, Nov 2010

Hi Folks,

We took Jaimee and Brandon to the zoo this week. We learned from Jaimee that the reason some animals can live in the desert is because of "Friction". That is where they get water. So now you now. Here are some pictures:

Halloween Party 2010

Hi Folks,

We had a fun family Halloween party. As you can see, we dressed up in costumes and had Halloween food--"Graveyard Greens"(Salad), "Dracula Fingers"(Carrots),etc. We played Halloween Bingo, Throw the Spider in the Pumpkin, Bobbing for Apples and sang along with Kaelynn as she played some Halloween songs and others on her guitar. Everyone had a good time.

We had a lovely dinner between conference sessions. Below are two pictures of the dinner:

Kaelynn's Mission Return, September 8, 2010

Kaelynn returned home! She looks great, she had a wonderful experience and is ready to move on. We had a lovely dinner with many family members that night. Also, Andrea and Chris called her. Thanks to everyone for making it a great day. First day back started well--we started the day with a three mile run and then scripture study.

Hi Everybody,

Sunday was Spencer's birthday and it was great. He had a "Snake Theme" and I would say we had some great Garter Snake meat!
