Brett's Birthday!

Brett is older than me (for a few weeks anyway)!!

Halloween!!!

It was raining and cold on Halloween! Not the best for little trick-or-treaters! Luckily, it is great for cheese soup and chili!! Andrew decided that they needed to go trick or treating at the last minute, but managed to look fabulous in his 70's rock star costume. Ryker was a pirate and was just happy to wear his costume!

Fall Colors!

This was the most beautiful fall colored year I can remember seeing. I wish I would have taken some pictures around my house and of our view. I did take some when Brett and I took a trip to the cabin.

South Weber Days!

As always, we attended South Weber Days the first part of August. Andrew and his football team were in the parade. Ryker gots lots of candy. AND of course fireworks!!

At The Cabin!

We always go to the cabin for the Davis family reunion. It is so much fun to sit around and talk to my parents, aunts, uncles, cousins nieces, nephews. It is such a wonderful place to be, especially during the hot summer! The weather is always cooler up there! We ride 4-wheelers and horses. We play lots of games and sometimes even do something ambitious like make a craft.

The view from the deck of the cabin is so beautiful....I love area and always have a great time. The weather was beautiful. We went from 96 degrees here to 72 degrees there. The nights were cool (great sleeping weather).

Jill and Tracy!

The kids all made foam swords. We couldn't get them to stop sword

fighting long enough for a picture.

Summer Updates!

Summer is speeding by...It is already half over! This is what we are doing....

1. Brett is working a new job and has no vacation! Sucks for him!

2. Andrew has a billion friends and spends a ton of time going to Lagoon, laser tag, swimming, bowling and always - PARTIES ! They like to have night games every night.

3. Matt and Jordan are working...Matt is taking a summer class at Weber State.

4. I have been cleaning stuff out like crazy!! I am trying to throw away one box per day....I haven't hit every single day, but I have done plenty!

5. Melissa and Ryan are planning their wedding (August 5th).

Earlier in June, Andrew made the all-star lacrosse team. This extended the season a few weeks and they took the team up to Park City for a three day tournament. They won all 5 of their games and we all had a fabulous time!

Here are some pictures:

Jaime and Andrew are happy!!

The kids rode the zip line at the Olympic Park.

It was tiring!




The Team!

We stayed in a condo with Andrew, Jaime, Daxten and Cade. The boys met up with Hunter and Nathan for swimming, eating and touring. There were vendors selling lacrosse stuff. That was a big hit with the kids! They all got some cool lacrosse socks. Some of the family came up and watched a few games. Thanks! The weather was beautiful and we all a great time!

We haven't done much else this summer...just the usual! A few more highlights:

1. Andrew and Brett went on a 12 mile hike with the scouts. Pretty tough!

2. I bought a cool new shelf and table to organize my sewing and craft area. It looks really cool!

3. I have been to lunch with the girls - A LOT!

4. Connie's dog Farley was good enough to have a party for all the kids. That was fun!

5. Read some good books!

I guess (after reading this) that we should do something really big and fun or at least really constructive!! Oh well!

Sand Hollow

We went down to St. George for Memorial Day Weekend. It has not been warm up here at all, but it was beautiful down there! The beach was awesome. It has the coolest sand ever! We went boating on Saturday with Tracy and Cheryl and families. All the adults went out to dinner Saturday night. Sunday, we went to Zion's and took the shuttle through the park. We did a little hiking, but not too much. It was very crowded there, but still fun to see! I haven't been there for a long time!

Andrew & Brody are playing a "minute to win it" They have

to get the oreo into their mouths with no hands!
