Late Christmas Pictures

I has taken me forever to post some Christmas pictures. We had a wonderful time with all of our family and friends. I love Christmas and am so sad that it came and went so fast. I hope I can keep the Christmas spirit with me all of 2010!

Happy Birthday my Love!

Today is my best friend's birthday!
I heart you so much you don't even understand!
Thanks for being my better half!
Love, Laynie

Happy Holiday!

I love this time of the year! I have been so excited for Christmas and it is finally here! Happy Holidays everybody!

Clayton's Hunt

Clayton was drawn for Elk this year and brought this home. He is huge and I don't expect to run out of meat anytime soon! I just cooked my first elk pot roast and it was delicious!

Where did November go?

Thanksgiving was so fun this year! We had a great dinner that was hard to stop eating! I was in charge of the sweet potatoes, peach pie and coconut cream pie this year. I was so glad that all of them turned out so delicious!

Air show in Vegas this year. I never get tired of going to the Thunderbird Air Show! It amazes me that my grandpa used to fly airplanes like that! He is so talented I can't believe it.

Here we are next to one of the Thunderbird airplanes.

October!

I know it has been forever since i updated our blog. October is my favorite month and has kept us very busy! We have spent time outside soaking up the wonderful weather, taken some trips out of town, and enjoyed the Halloween activities! It has been a great month and here are some pictures we have taken during it.

On our way to Utah for a quick trip.

Phase 1 of Clayton's pumpkin. He always shows the rest of us up with his free-handing skill.

We are getting ready for the pumpkin carving to start!

Here are just SOME of the finished pumpkins this year!

The whole gang and all of the pumpkins!

BYU vs. TCU Homecoming game

While the BYU game was going on, my Aunt Lisa threw another fun witches party. I didn't have my camera with me so I'll have to post more pictures later. Happy Halloween!

Camping

We were so lucky to get out of the heat and go camping a couple of weeks ago. The weather was so nice we even had to bring jackets! I hadn't been camping in forever so it was so much fun. All of my nephews were there and were thrilled they got to sleep in a tent! Penny and I also made friends with a chipmunk while we were at the lake. It was so funny but it would not leave us alone and kept coming and trying to eat our crackers. Overall it was a great weekend!
