The Turkey Tri

My sister Ashlee and I did a triathlon on Nov. 7, the turkey tri in Orem. It was great fun even though it was probably the least ready for one I've ever been. I made it right?

update madness

Wow, it's been a while. Well, we are finally in our house (pics to come). It has been great to have more space. The ward has been super nice and we like it already.
Here is what has been happening the past couple months.
Halloween:

Todd, sheesh he looks fat, it's all the costume ;)

The hicks.

oh, I probably chose the wrong picture but oh well, the kids. We went to my parents and had a party.

Me and the Toadster or the Cat in the Hat.

Going to our ward carnival. (Jon had to work late)

Gardner village.

Feeding the ducks with Aunt Malia.

Autumn hike.

We went on this hike before Halloween and the snow. It was so lovely, I don't know why I haven't done it way more. Probably just getting out the door is hard but I should have. The kids loved it and I could let them explore and not worry about them running into traffic. It was so great. Joelle once was exploring off the path and said, "Come on Mom." Me: I'll just wait here. (I didn't want Todd to be poked by branches.) So we argue for a minute about it and she said, "you won't fall, I promise." I just thought it was a funny comment. And then she was walking around and said, "Look, someone forgot their grapes." I look and it's deer poop.

Joelle took this one of us. pretty good.

New pics of kids and some of Lake Powell

We went to Lake Powell with our friends and had a blast. I'll have to post more pics later but heres a couple.

Joelle's in the green jacket.

Todd chillin

I was playing with my sister's camera.

Jon's graduation and Joelle's birthday

So I tried to post more pics of this but it wouldn't let me.

An August party before Brit and Adam moved to Montana.

Each graduate got to say a little something.

Summer catch up- The lodge

I finally got a new camera so I can get my pictures from the summer and recent so it might take a while to post them all. And some exciting news is that we found a house! We are excited to move and have our own place but are also sad to leave our wonderful neighbors/friends and family here. We have been so blessed to be here for the past 5 years.
