Thanksgiving in Spokane

We went up to Spokane for Thanksgiving to spend it with Jenny and Neal and their family. Mom and Dad were there too. They flew up a few days before we drove up there. Wesley and I were able to leave here on Wednesday morning then we all returned on Sunday. It was a fun trip, we got to spend time with the kids the first night while the others went to a play. Thanksgiving we got to just hang out and Wesley played Wii with the kids. Thanksgiving night Jenny, Mom and I went to Wal-mart to hit the sales that night. Thanksgiving night Jenny's refrigerator stopped working, so Friday morning they went shopping for a new one and found a new one that would be delivered on Saturday. Friday day we went for lunch, and then we went to the Spokane temple so I could take some pictures. Then we all went and saw the Muppets Movie with everyone. Saturday we all helped Jenny and Neal put up all their Christmas decorations and then later that afternoon Jenny took Wesley and I to a park with the kids to show us the big red wagon and ride the Mary-go-round. Then Sunday Morning we packed up the car and headed home with Mom and Dad.

 We stopped by Hastings for the kids to find a new book and Wesley and Owen found new toys and got all dressed and had a light-saber fight, up so I took some pictures of them. It was pretty funny.

Halloween 2011

This year I dressed up at work as a hippie for Halloween.  My whole work team tried to dress up together. It was a lot of fun to be able to dress up and have fun at work that day.

After work we were going to go to a Halloween party that night but we had a change of plans and we dressed up and just hung out with our friend downstairs. It was a great Halloween this year. Wesley and I dressed up as Wybie and Coraline from the movie Coraline. Wesley made his mask and even painted his gloves to match Wybie.

Payson Lake camping Trip

Middle of Aug. we went camping with some friends at Payson Lakes. It was a lot of fun. We went to the grotto and Payson Lake. There were seven kids all under four years old, and nine adults. We had five tents on one large camp ground. We only had about two hours of bad weather. It went really well.
