Utah for Thanksgiving Day 1-2

I can't remember all of the details, because I'm so far behind with blogging, but I do at least have pictures from when our family decided to celebrate Thanksgiving in Utah with extended family. We enjoyed several really nice weather days and playing in the leaves as well as going "out to the farm."

Love my mom in the background smiling. :)

It was a gorgeous sunset and the perfect evening with family.

Myles' Thanksgiving Program

We love Myles' Pre-K teacher, Ms. Kristen. All three kiddos have now gone to her and this our third and final Thanksgiving program with her. I love Myles, even though he is quite the turkey on occasion. :)

Serenity Now

This Summer I discovered a new found love for mountain biking. I'm grateful for trails that are located literally behind my home and for great weather lasting late into the Fall that even allowed for me to take a quick ride on my lunch break home from work. It is therapy for my mind and body.

Church Stuff

The kids and I cleaned the church and the four of us more than doubled the number of who showed up to help (Bryan had a work event to attend). I love that my kids are good cleaners and look forward to it at the church. Now, how do I recreate this at home?!?

My calling in YWs has been the most challenging and rewarding calling. I have grown to love these YW I serve. Their example to me of standing up for their beliefs and sharing their testimonies has affected me for the eternities!

Prepping for the LAST Young Women In Excellence. The theme was "Capture the Vision of your divine nature and eternal destiny." The decorations were over the top with a YW and her family doing them to help her complete her Personal Progress. Annnnd I don't have any other pics of that night, ha! **RIP YWIE.** 

No tears were shed by me with that night going away!

On the fun side of life, I've also shared my love of "TPing" with the YW and have also been the recipient. It makes me laugh especially because we don't have any trees in our front yard so they need to be creative. The guilty party has yet to be found from the last time...maybe it's spread to the adults in the ward. Haha!

More of Myles' Tummy

This kid! Hahaha...

Another tooth gone!

I picked Emma up from school and she was missing her front tooth! I can't believe how quickly these kids are changing! Sure love this sweet girl.

Donut Factory!

One Sunday evening we cranked out a few dozen donuts and shared with some of our friends. It was a fun family time with delicious results.

Yessss! Give me all the donuts! :)
