It's Probably Not A Conspiracy

It's not a conspiracy. It's just too much laundry and dishes. But here are all the latest photos.

Clara is a little (a lot) obsessed with those giant bears they have at Costco (Grandparents, please do Not get any ideas!!).

Back in September, My friend Julie and I ran the Big Cottonwood half marathon. It was a great run...all down hill!

At the beginning of October my family had a chance to get together. One brother came from Georgia, and another from Washington. We all stayed overnight in one of the lodges at Aspen grove. It was beautiful there! Above is my bro Bill trying out the stilts. This was before he fell over.

My brother Bryan. Wearing a wookie. Like you do.

My Dad, Matt and Clara playing some mini golf in the snow.

Matt checking out the bridge.

Beautiful Anna.

A bunch of cousins swinging.

Two of my sisters in law. Staying warm, hanging out with baby Maxx and Blake.

Matt getting tricky on his scooter.

Bryan and Brenda. Do you think he's waiting for a kiss or dreaming about a cheese burger?

My brother Ben.

Waiting around to take a group photo.

The lovely Carissa and cute Preston

We survived the group photos!

Legos are a big thing at our house right now. Here's Matt and one of his creations.

Anna even added Legos to her pinewood derby car. Her car was named "banana".

We have had some beautiful fall weather here!

Clara getting an early lesson in long boarding.

Clara was a lady bug for Halloween! She loved wearing her costume!

Anna and Matt were both Ninjago Ninjas.

Trying to get a group shot.

A very dangerous lady bug.

Brown eyes.

A week later... still wearing the costume.

Just having fun outside.

The lake was looking especially glassy that day.

Anna is an awesome big sister!

More Lego creations.

We went to cornbelly's during fall break. The children acted like animals.

Playing in the corn box.

Robot chicken show!

Sack slide! Whoo whooo!

Cow train.

  

Clara and Anna riding the tricycle.

 

A few more baby lady bug photos from my phone.

These first few were taken on labor day, when Kent finished up the first long board, and the kids got crazy with the sidewalk chalk.

Later that day we went swimming at my brother Danny's condo pool and had a BBQ.

Clara getting in trouble.

These last few were taken tonight. Matt and Anna are sanding their own long boards. Clara was sanding the drive way.

Happy Birthday Clara Girl!

Happy birthday to our Clara today! She has brought another ray of sunshine to our lives. I can't believe it's been a whole year already.

Thanks for the presents, Grandparents!

 

Pre Birthday Partiness

We had my family over on Sunday to celebrate Clara's birthday. She loved making a mess of her cup cake!

Tune in tomorrow for her actual birthday pics!

Back to School and More!

Matt reading to Clara. She is just starting to really get into books lately.

First day of 2nd grade for Matt and 4th grade for Anna

We felt like celebrities walking through this cheering tunnel.

Clara enjoying her breakfast.

She loves being able to feed herself!

We have  had a sick week this week. It started with Kent on Sunday night and has worked it's way through everyone.

Here's hoping for a healthier next week.
