Kara's Rock

All on Kara's Rock

They made it all the way to the very top

Mom and Peyton watching them climb to the top

In part of our trip to Capitol Reef we ate lunch at Kara's Rock the kids thought it was fun and a little bit of a challenge to get to the top. Kara is a cousin and my kids wanted to know how she bought this big Rock. They can't wait until we see her again to ask her.

Fall Recess

For Fall Recess we took the kids to Capitol Reef and hiked all day. We had a lot of fun. I really enjoy spending time with my family. We have done a little bit of hiking this year and have really enjoyed it and the kids want to go on a hike all the time now.

This is the hike to Chimney Rock which is about 3 miles and Gracy hiked the whole way there and most of it on the way back. She is quite the little hiker. Matty is hot on Wyatts trail and does what ever he does. As for Abby she was not to sure about how high we were getting but she made it and soon decided that hiking was really fun.

We had so much fun we have decided to go back next year and camp for a day so we can do more hikes. But we are not taking the dog because there are no dogs allowed on the trails.

Bump on the Head

Peyton has been walking for about 3 months now but this last week he has looked like we beat him. Steve was chasing him around the house and tickling him when he found our only corner on the kitchen cupboards. It scared Steve and I because it swelled up really big and really fast the pictures do not do it justice. I think we are luck that we didn't go for stitches. But everywhere I took him this week I think there was someone who thought maybe they should turn us in.

Cute but Crazy kids

I was trying to take a picture for our Chistmas Card but they were
all being just a little silly so I will try anther day.

America's Got Talent here we come

Over the last few week Peyton has become a very different child. I have always loved him but there were days I did not like him much. He has been a very very fuss baby. But I have come to find out that he is really really cute and fun. He has a dimple on his right check when he smiles it is so cute but am not sure we knew was there. He and Gracy get the Giggles and it is so funny to listen to those to laugh at each other. In the past if you roared at him he would cry now he laughs and roars right back at you. But one of the things Peyton enjoys doing is spinning my pan lids. He knows just how to flip the lid so that it spins on the floor, he is very good at it so look out America Peytons got Talent :)

Flag Football

This year Abby choose to play Flag Football instead of Soccer. She told us that she was going to play Flag Football until that career ended and then go back to Soccer since she can't play Football in High School. We hope next year she plays Soccer (Even though she was one of the best players on her Flag Football team) because she was the only girl in the league.

Wyatt also played Flag Football. He loves Football and can't wait until he plays tackle. Steve got to coach Wyatt's team. It has been nice since Steve started working for Farm Bureau he has been able to coach some of the kids sports.
