Wedding Plans and Fall Fun!

Spencer is our resident pool man.  He would clean every Saturday to earn money for...well, whatever.

Hailey and Hannah off ice-skating.

Kohler and Suzy took some amazingly beautiful engagement photos!

Tamara and I stopped off at the Back 40 Restaurant outside of Heber.  It is a beautiful view of Hever valley.

We decided to put up a barnyard wall.  We bought all the materials (we thought) and spent a record 14 hours putting it up.  Despite all the expletives, the wall went up without harming our eternal marriage and our physical bodies.

So we went to the ends of the earth, then kept driving to a small town called, Eagle Mountain,  for a lantern lighting.  We bought the lanterns and took a seat, then found out the lantern lighting wasn't for another 5 hours!  We took the photo as proof we were there, then left for home.  We got to see a part of Utah that we thought we would never see again.

Hailey had her first girls camp.  She is a natural at making friends.

Some drone fun

Family dinner!

Hailey played the flute in 6th grade.  She was able to perform for the primary program in our ward.

Spencer played sophomore football.  Best looking guy on the team!

General conference weekend.  We loved lounging in the spirit of the weekend.

After Priesthood meeting we met up with Steve Hixon at a mexican restaurant.  I love going to priesthood with my boys!  Some of the highlights of my year.

Two absolutely gorgeous people! 

Halloween, Thanksgiving Week, Remodels . . . Oh my!!

It's General Conference weekend!  One of our most favorite weekends of the year!

 Crepes . . . yes!!!

 Tom and I picked out this new wedding ring and I'm in love!!!  (with Tom, of course!)

 We went to hear Suzy Nielsen give her farewell talk for her mission.  What an amazing girl.  We loved the talk and were so happy to be there to support her!  She is going to be a fantastic missionary!

 I LOVE that my Kelsey wanted to dress up on Halloween anyway---being a Senior in High School, she still has that spirit and I love that about her!

 Here is Hailey and her bestie, Isobel!

 I am the Relief Society President of the Gilbert Ranch Ward and am so blessed to have these amazing women by my side.  Far left is Heather Prusse, my 1st Counselor, then Melissa Thatcher, 2nd Counselor, then Liane Carmichael, Secretary.  Honestly, some of the most amazing women in the world that I love and respect so very much

We compiled favorite recipes from the women in our ward and made a cookbook!  It turned out so awesome!

 This is what we sent to Elder Chamberlain for Christmas!  I sent a Christmas Stocking to his companion too so he could have something fun to open!

 Look at these amazing Activity Day Leaders and the spread they have put on.  I tell you, we are so blessed here in this area to have such dedicated leaders who really love our girls and give them their best effort.  It's because they also love the Lord, and they magnify their callings to the fullest.

Hailey gave a talk and did such a great job!  I am so proud of her!
