Roaring River State Park

We got to go and explore one of Missouri's state parks this weekend. We didn't get to many fish, just a few, but we had a great time! This was Brandon's little guy that he caught.
Jordan had a little guy like the one Brandon got but he got away before we could snap the picture!

This is Jordan after he fell into the river!
This is him before he fell in the river!
I caught the only rainbow trout of the day! Yeah Me!
this is Schon the fly fisherman!

Halloween Decorating



I love Halloween! I don't know why? I love the Fall and wearing jeans and sweatshirts again...I love the sound of Football games and maybe because mine and eight other people in my family have birthdays in October could be the number one reason! I love to decorate for this holiday and this year Jordan was so excited to help me...I had him stuck to my side the whole entire day! Thanks Jordan for all your wonderful help!

Our new pets

So many of you know me....I don't do pets! But the boys have really been wanting a pet...so I compromised....we let them get hermit crabs.....they seem to be easy to take care of so we will see! They are really excited and are trying to think of names!

President Hinckley



I finally got this picture from my sister in law (thanks Amy)

On our trip to Utah Brandon had a conversation with his Grandma and told her that he wanted to go to the cemetery and see the prophet President Hinkleys grave. He came up with this all on his own and I am so proud of him! Brandon thanks for letting the spirit guide you so that your family could have this wonderful experience!

Utah

The city of Cottonwood just got a new police force and we were lucky enough to see our Uncle Randy sworn in! We are proud of the work that our Aunt Amy and Uncle Randy do as Police officers!



Picnic's in the canyons!




Utah

Although we went to Utah on a sad note...we did get to see and spend some time with friends and family. We went on a few picnics in the canyons.....







The highlight... an extra special treat, we got to visit East High School where High School Musical was filmed...our Grandma and Grandpa went to highschool there....and our cousin Reyna goes there now...the best thing about it was the principal of East High gave us an autographed picture of all of the actors! We promised him we wouldn't sell it on ebay! (thanks again to our grandma's friend CeCe)











this pink locker is Sharpay's! (they left it painted pink...I wonder who the lucky kid is that got it assigned this year is?)
This Locker is the Man...Troy Bloton's
This is our cousin Reyna and her locker!




We also got to spend a day at the cottonwood spa... swimming...thanks Uncle Randy!







Dear Friend Ashley

I haven't posted for the last 2 weeks because we had a dear friend pass away in Utah and went on a last minute trip to go to her funeral. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Thompson family and are so sorry for their loss. Ashley was a great friend..wife..and mother to her sweet little boy Connor. You will be surely missed Ashley...until we meet again.
