Thriller

I conned Sherri into going with me to Thriller.  It was a lot of fun.  We went and ate at Heaps and watched the show at the Covey Arts Center.  Of course I loved it, It's Halloween, my favorite.

We planned a quick weekend get-away with the Manookins to Moab.  We had so much fun and they were so great to show us around.  We were totally clueless.  I haven't been to Moab since I was 17 and Mark can't ever remember going.  Sydney was so excited to go with Carson and even more excited when he brought his friend Braden, a new crush for the week.  She goes through them about as fast as toilet paper.  We stayed in some pretty swanky KOA cabins.  They didn't have much, but the kids were extremely excited to stay in a log cabin with bunk beds.  Even though the weekend was pretty wet, we managed to get in a couple of short 4-wheeler rides to Gemini Bridges and Metal Masher and a few hikes to the arches.  I can't believe how much bigger Moab is than I remembered and there really is a LOT to do there.   We look forward to going again.

Mark's Job

Mark had to take my camera out on one of his jobs the other day since he left his at work.  Now I have 500 pictures of dirt, but I thought I would post a pic of what he works with.   Since I never have really understood what he does.  This is a track mounted screen plant he started up in Hanksville.  His job it to go out and show the people who rent their equipment how to run and maintain it.  He has really loved his job change.  He gets to meet a lot of people and loves it.  

SFHS Jr Drill

Sydney's cousin Allison is on the Spanish Fork Drill Team this year, so she got to teach Sydney, Emily and Josie for a couple of weeks to perform at a JV game.

My beautiful baby boy

We closed out the summer with a camping trip with my family or at least those who could make it.  (Clint's family, our family, Grandma, Grandpa, Dayna's kids and Sherri's kids)  The kids had a lot of fun building hut's, roasting marshmallows and walking around the lake.  We had great food and I learned a ton of different ways to make a tinfoil dinner.  Who knew??
