Murder Mystery Dinner Party!

We finally did our murder mystery dinner party! We did one a couple years ago in our old ward and had so much fun! We've been wanting to do it forever but it takes a lot of planning so I kept putting it off!

We're so glad we did it though, it was a huge hit! Everybody came so dolled up and in character

This was out table setting. This was the day before so no candle light.

This is the finished product! It was all by candlelight. Very 1940's! In the vases were real gold fish! Thanks so my good friend marni, the decorations were very authentic!

All of us in the game! It's very intense!

These are all of our Gangster husbands!

What a blast! This will definitely have to be a yearly thing! We'll have to figure out a way to fit more people into the game!

Cedar City Breast Cancer Awareness Game!!!

All us girls headed down to Cedar City last weekend for the SUU Breast Cancer Awareness game! It was such a fun girls weekend! My first time leaving Jon with the kids overnight! I am definitely doing that again!

It was so cute, my grandma is a 19 year cancer survivor and she was invited to go out onto the field to kick the soccer ball to Shelby! It was great having all of us there in our matching pink! We love you Grandma and can't imagine life with out you!

Grandma had a lucky weekend. She won a gift basket from Great Harvest too!!! YUM!
Ok when us sisters get together..we are just nuts! People were stopping to stare! I haven't had that since...hmm.... high school days!
Pedicures at the ONE good salon they had there in Cedar! It was pretty ghetto but it did the trick!

They pulled out all the stops just to get us 5 in at the same time!

What a fun weekend! Just what the doctor ordered!

Things we missed!

Camping up at Trial Lake! It was such a beautiful and fun camping trip! i loved all the camping we did this year but i can officially say that I am sick of camp fires. Don't get me wrong, I love the mallows, the smores, the biscuits wrapped around a stick with honey butter poured down the middle... but there's just something about my own stove that makes me happy! Plus I'm just super excited for Fall and sweater weather!

Family night up American Fork Canyon!

All us girls! Shelby is VERY picture happy!

The kiddos! We're missing Ky and Bridger though!

Camping with the whole family up at Trial Lake! It was so fun!

The hikes always seem to fall on Bridger's nap time. poor kid, I promise I'm not using the binky as a mute button!

Yellowstone!!!

I am FINALLY posting our trip to Yellowstone! I wanted to make the scrapbook pages for this trip so I could just print them off. So I thought I'd kill 2 birds with 1 stone and post the pages! Hopefully they're centered ok!

I have a few more pages I am finishing but this is what I've been able to get done over a 3 week period...I'm terribly slow!

Happy Birthday Hunter

Hunter had a very cool Super Hero party with 10 of his best buddies. He opted for Chocolate and banana cream pie instead of cake! We set up a projector and mega speakers for a super hero movie up in our loft! I have never heard the house so loud!

Grandma's house! We had a weenie and marshmallow roast! Papa is the best slippin slide tosser!

Hunter, you add so much to our lives and we love you so much! Here are a couple of funny things I have written down through the year that Hunter said!:

"Mom, I can't find any mushrooms downstairs, can you just squeeze the mushrooms out of this cream of mushroom soup?"

"I'm gonna go scale myself to see how much I've grown,"

"Rock out dude,"

"does this have sugar in it?"

"Mommy, I like you better than daddy, he makes me do so much work."

Oh and this one was said last year but it was hilarious..

in primary they asked him what families are made of, he said

"um...like bones and blood and stuff, oh and sometimes they build us with a heart."

We love you buddy!
