Playing Catch Up...the Halloween Version

Here are some pictures from Halloween.  I am a little bit behind....

Madee's New Backpack

Madee LOVES her new backpack!!! 

Those One Direction boys certainly do have quite the effect on girls.  I'm  assuming that's why there is a sudden fascination with the British!!!

Destrie's Basketball Team

This was Destrie's first year playing basketball.  They had a small team, so this meant lots of playing time!  It was great and he loved it!

This picture is too cute!  He has a self-inflicted wound on his forehead...he drove a remote control car into his head on purpose...not sure why???

 He had just lost his first tooth...Yay!

 And he had a messy face!

That's my boy!

Weekend Road Trip

 A few weeks ago, we went with some friends on a weekend motorcycle trip.  We visited Jackson Hole, Yellowstone, and Teton Village.

This is the cabin that we stayed in.  It was in Victor, Idaho.  It was super nice.  There was a bedroom and a bathroom for each of the 4 couples.  We had a drawing to see who got that master suite...and Kile and I got it!  Lucky us!

Here are some fun pictures of Kile and I outside one of the restaurants we ate at on the trip.

This is a picture of a bench in Afton, Wyoming.  I thought it was funny

Pictures of the Rolling Thunder couples at Jenny Lake....which is just outside of Jackson.

So much fun!  Can't wait to get out and ride again soon!

Labor Day Weekend

For Labor Day Weekend, we had a ton of fun things planned.  It didn't really turn out the way we expected...
Saturday, we headed to Brigham and had dinner at Maddox.  After that, we headed across the street to the fruit stand to pick up some peaches and some tomatoes-we are going to make salsa!  Anyway, after that we headed to Ogden, to the Raptors game.  Upon arriving at the game, we were informed the game had been cancelled due to rain and wind.  (As we are standing there, the weather is fine.)  I know it had been windy and rainy, but it had pretty much stopped at this point.  Great...we drove all this way, now what?

We head over to the Salomon Center  and watched a guy who was "flying" at I Fly.  Next we played mini golf and some video games at Fat Cats.  After that, we stopped at a cupcake shop and the kids got cupcakes.  An ok night, I guess but missing the baseball game was a bummer.  We dropped Destrie off in Clarkston to sleep out in the tent with Eric and Kate and we head home...excited for tomorrow's adventure.

We head out again, and this time we are headed to Blackfoot, Idaho for the fair and horse races.  We get there, go to buy our tickets for the races, and they tell us that races have been cancelled due to rain yesterday that messed up the track....Damn the bad luck!!!

 Destrie and Madee did get to ride the mechanical bull though, so it wasn't a total loss.

 After that, we walked around and checked out all the sites...

Oh, and then I had a crown break off while I was eating some fudge....good times.

And that was our disappointing Labor Day Weekend.
Oh wait...we did go to a cookout in Clarkston on Monday that actually turned out good.
