A little fun in addition to Thanksgiving

    We had some fun stuff going on last weekend. Charlie got to have a fun late night with her 'bestie', Kat. Greg and McClane got to go on a little camp out with a few priest quorum boys and leaders. And we had a fun Sunday with the grandbabies. And then it was Thanksgiving and it was a great day and we had plenty of yummy food and although we were missing several extended family members we still managed to enjoy our time at G & G Kmetzsch's.

McClane may not be priest age yet but neither is Buddy. Ha ha, fun times.

All my kids and grandkids together for Thanksgiving.

Beau wasn't too excited about dinner, at first, but she finally came around.

This cutie was the best.

    So now it's time to get serious about Christmas! So far we've got the majority of our decor up and just have Christmas lights to put up outside and a new wreath is on its way. I've also done a good chunk of the shopping this past week. I still don't know how it's holiday season but a little snow might help bring some Christmas spirit but sadly there's nothing on the upcoming weeks forecast but we'll see what we can pray into effect.

Fun extended

    We had an extra day of fun celebrating Greg's birthday. We went on a nice motorcycle ride with a few of our neighbors, which was super fun and we stopped for some really yummy pizza in Santaquin. Then, later that night, we went for ice cream with the same neighbors plus a couple more. Greg was pretty happy to get out on the motorcycle for the first time in a long time. And bonus, free pinball games at the ice cream parlor!

Brock had fun at a campout with his Deacons quorum. They were at Scout Cave up in American Fork Canyon.

No motorcycle photos but here's the gang at ice cream.

Greg was having the 'best day ever'!

Cute Harley showing Charlie some love.

And McClane found this clever phone holder idea on TikTok. (We might have a device problem at this house.)

    Greg is on a campout this weekend with the Priest Quorum and he snuck McClane along and I'm sure they're going to have a blast. They're headed to the sand dunes. And in case you don't know, Thanksgiving is in less then one week! WHAT?! That's crazy!! Have a great Thanksgiving!!

Happy 49th birthday to Greg!

    It's today! It's today! Happy 49th birthday to this guy! We're so lucky to have such a great husband, Dad and grandpa! He's the hardest worker, most helpful and kind guy around! 

A cordless grinder, just what he wanted. (So he bought it for himself.)

Charlie's sausage 'cake' will work.

    Here's a few throw back photos that capture some of his personality.

 

 

 

 

 

 

    We may not have celebrated 'big' but we feel BIG love for him nonetheless!

Halloween 2021

    Only a few photos this week. The kids had a fun Halloween and life has been a lot simpler this week.

Charlie's trick or treat crew.

Not a bad haul for this "Unicorn Rider".

And the "Dinosaur Rider" didn't do too bad either.

Sadly the only photo I got of Brock was a screen shot of his snapchat.

    So now we're in November and that's just crazy!
