12 Temples in 1 day

So here is a shout out for Tom and what he is into..... motorcycles!!!  He shares this hobby with his Dad and recently they did a long {cold} ride to 12 utah temples in 1 day.  You might only appreciate this if you ride and you can imagine doing 575 miles in one day... at the end of October!  Brrrr!  My hubby and father in law are crazy like that.  So I played around with imovie trying to learn how to do it and made this video of their trip... check it out

So long summer!

Whoa.... its been a while.  I am so far behind I don't know where to start.... so I will begin with a quick wrap up of our summer.  First up our trip to Cali for Adam & Nicoles wedding.

A few of Ellie and Dylans Cousins- I cant believe how old they are getting

 This was the kids first time to the beach... Dylan mostly slept but Ellie had a great time playing in the sand, sitting in the water with Daddy and eating all Jaime's M&M's.

 Ellie and Lexi.....

 While we were there we celebrated my Mom's big 60!

And finally from the big event- AK & Nicoles wedding was a blast!  She was a beautiful bride & he a very handsome groom.  We almost had the whole family, we were missing the Nicki's husband Jeff and their kids.

There rest of our summer was filled with

Days at the park

 Tom hicked Timp- something he has been wanting to do for a long time.

 Thanksgiving point- Ellie love's all the animals there.

 Wearing cute summer dresses- one of my favorite parts of summer.

 Playing playing playing

 Going to the zoo with Grandma & Grandpa

Sad to see the good weather go.... but all in all it was a great summer!

The night of the 4th the fireworks were so loud, now that everyone can do the big ones, we got Ellie out of bed to watch them and eat popcorn!

Counting our Blessings

Tom blessed Dylan on July 3, it was a special day for us spent with good friends and family.  Dylan got to wear the same blessing outfit that Tom was blessed in.  

 I was so mad that the picture below came out blurry!  In it with us is Brother Maughan- I served with him and his wife on my mission.  They were a big part of my mission and I love them so much.  So needless to say we were thrilled that Brother Maughan could be with us and be a part of Dylans blessing.

 Aunt Mary

 BK & Kelli

 The Proctors

 Grandma Paula & Grandpa Greg

 Some good friends the Boyakins & the Coombs came and also were a part of the blessing.
