Fall Days......

Grandpa and Grandma "D" have harvested all of their pumpkins, and all of the grandkids were able to choose one or more.

They are working at getting the garden "put to bed" for fall/winter.  We finished cutting down the corn stalks yesterday.  I'd say 95% of them went to our animals for food, and we also bundled a few for decoration, and put the rest of the burn pile. 

While we were at Costco on Monday, a random lady handed Cam a rose !   

The baby goats, Paris and France are getting more and more tame.  We can hand feed them, we just have to keep Billy and Sam (and their mean ways) AWAY from them if we want to get close.  

With Miss Piggy

Tuesday we went to Morgan Valley Crafts and painted up another Halloween decoration.  It was alot of fun !

While we were eating lunch at Deb's Spicy Pie (with CJ and Thatch), we got a text from Bruce, who let us know that Linda's headstone was in place.  We ran right up to the cemetery to check it out.  IT IS BEAUTIFUL !

We had a nice visit with Bruce and Brenda, and Grandpa and Grandma Ben.

Cam is a great baby-sitter :)

This girl is getting TALLER !  One of these days she's going to pass them up !

Our finished project !

Later, when we were putting the cornstalks on the burn pile. 

Two peas in a pod

The Welch Ditch Dam has been removed, and the creek is really low. 

We are getting ready to build a shed at the property. Hopefully we'll have some of it done before the snow comes,

We brought Thatch back to our house while the other crew went to the year end football party at the bowling alley.  

Vegas and Marathon ! Great Weekend :)

That is our hotel in Old Town in back - the Downtown Grand.  It was great !  We are just walking into Fremont Street, so we weren't far away at all. 

We walked down the strip (about a mile) to the Pawn Stars pawn shop.  FYI - It's not called "Pawn Stars" :)  Chumly wasn't there :(  

I love to get pics like this !

If you weigh over 350 pounds at this eating establishment, you can eat FREE !  These two didn't quite make it :)  Me and Manda weren't even going to hop on to try !

Just cause.....

Nice Wig Cameron !

Saturday morning Rog and I got up early and headed to St. George to watch Zac finish the marathon.   We met CJ and the kids and Grandma Shirlee there. 

These boys are ready to greet Dad !

We had the discussion about the spelling of Zac's name.  This kid is growing up so much !  Understanding more and more.  

Everyone was in FINE FORM this morning !

Here he comes !!  He can't miss us !!

He always has a BIG GRIN when he sees us all.  I know he really appreciates the support. 

And look who we bumped into !   Can't believe with all of those people that we "found" them without even trying?!?
Dallin is going to Dixie University, and Dax hadn't seen him for two whole months.  I guess it was quite a reunion.

Dallin, Devin (in back)
Dax, Treyson, Tagg (in front)

Picaboo !

Zac felt pretty good - only a few blisters.  At least he wasn't one of those hauled off in the ambulances (we saw three).

Good job Dad!

Back to Vegas, we drove down to the Luxor to view the Titanic and Bodies exhibits.

Then over to Mandalay Bay to see the Shark Encounter.

We could even TOUCH some stingrays...........but no one (not even Roger) wanted to try that !

At the Bodies Exhibit

Here we are on the grand staircase - with Captain Smith's ghost behind us !!

Crazy FUN !!

Pretty intense !!

Rose and Jack - aka Cam and Cam :)

We all had a great time.  We brought Cam home with us for a week during her fall break.   Life is good !

Filipino Babies :) Miss them !

Wow - what a BED HEAD !

Brightyn got her ears pierced :)
Maybe now they will stop calling her a boy !

This is Payson's Preschool

And his favorite teacher (I think)
He LOVES it :)
