Mid November Miscellaneous

Cam updated her profile pic on Facebook - Beautiful !
She's been able to talk with Josiah on Sundays, and has finally received his snail mail.  She is busy busy with work and wedding plans.  

Lovin' the hot tub :)

Bren's dad, Jeff Claussen died this past week, on November 14th.  He had Parkinsons, and has been slowly declining for some time.  This picture was taken in 2011 at Manda and Bren's wedding. 
Jeff leaves behind his wife Lee, and only son, Brendon.  

These girlies love to decorate Grandma's Christmas Tree.

Leaf Lady

Man, I thought I loved fall (because the mowing is done), but this leaf pickup is NOT FUN !! 

Zac is making progress on the Dog Room expansion.

I helped CJ set up some things at Morgan Merc

The boys will have their first wrestling match with North Summit next Tuesday.  Treyson, Ezra, and Luke Woolsey were voted team captains. 

Front and center is Thatcher, with his middle school choir group at Family Tree

Got a kick out of this ! 

Had to get a picture to go with it :) 

Marnie Christensen sent me this picture.  She loves Thatcher.  She's an aide at the middle school. 

 

Fair Time

CJ had her booth there again, and boy did it rain the first day !!
Glad we were under cover.

Tagg and his friends competed in an event at the fair, for the 3rd year.............

This time they FINALLY came up winners, and each won
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS !!!!
Go boys !! 

 

Ivory & Birch - Big Event !!

It's all hands on deck as we prepare for Swiss Days (Sep 2nd & 3rd)

Tearing down the booth - will be set up Wednesday night in Midway (home of Swiss Days)

It's been a fun busy crazy weekend as we were in the home stretch.  Click here to see a video of the madness. 

Fun pics - I missed in July before the Crazy started !

Bright and Bent

These two both tried out for the Dominicana baseball team

I guess this pic is from part of CRAZY ~~
Cash (little dinosaur) visits the Property for breakfast.
We had breakfast at the Property, both Saturday and Sunday mornings when they were here. 

After Saturday morning breakfast, we STAINED !!!
It's so much better when all of us help.  It doesn't make you feel so overwhelmed :)

Even Josiah and Camryn helped, and we really appreciated it - talk about a working vaca, right?   

Zac has built the best booth for CJ to use at Swiss Days

CJ held a little 4-H class at Ivory and Birch
The kids loved it ! 

CJ and Zac were also in charge of the Silent Auction for the Morgan High Football team.  Can you spot Zac, Thatcher, Tagg, Treyson, CJ, and Grandma Shirlee in the picture?  

Good job guys !!

What's up with Zac and family?

Lots of helping mom with Ivory & Birch :)

Everyone gets in on the action.  Roger D does alot to help also. 

Thatcher has finished up baseball with the Tiburons (an Ogden team)

Utah History Fair Day at the Courthouse grounds, in cooperation with the DUP.
Here Thatcher and friends are watching a honeybee hive demonstration.  Shawnie Meacham (one of Landon's schoolmates) is his substitute teacher for the rest of the year (woman at the far right).  Some of the kids I know in the photo, are Crew Merrill (standing next to the Male leader - he was in our Primary Class), next to him an Archibald kid (in red) who used to live in our ward, then Thatcher, then Weston Judd (Garret's boy), then the tall kid is Body Nelson (Blake's kid).  The kid behind Thatcher with the ponytail is Kolby Kimbal's kid.  He and Thatch are really good friends. 

Tagg and Mason after their year end band concert. 

We got a call about an hour before the performance.  I think Tagg told his family when he got home from school THAT day - oh !  btw, I have a concert tonight.  

Click here for concert video - Tagg has a solo (on the ting tings per Grandpa Roger) at the end. 

Sorry these pics are sideways - I couldn't get them changed.  ZAC and CJ and Tagg and Thatcher went "Ranger/General Riding" up Chalk Creek and towards Whitney (in the Uintas) over the last weekend while we were in Arizona.  Click here to see Tagg do some of the driving.  They had a fun time 

Work Work Work

I love it when our family works together
