Fall Fun and a Snowy Thanksgiving

Before the snow fell, Owen and Daddy would go outside and play football every day.
They also raked the leaves. Mommy came outside to help.

Then it was Thanksgiving and we all went to Grandma and Grampa Nash's house for Thanksgiving. Owen and Hunter had their own little table set up.

Owen played on Grandma's piano, danced with Hunter and had a great old time. He played with the kitty, the dog named Dave, watched Toy Story 3, colored on the coloring books and just had a great old time.

He also wanted his picture taken with his Batman toy.

Rainy Halloween

We had a great Halloween. We spent most of it in Tooele. Owen had a great time playing around with his cousins. He was like a little shadow with his cousin Hunter. It was a little wet tricker treating but all in all it was a good day with family! Here are just a few pics of the good times.

Six Years Ago Today...

On October 9th, 2004 two crazy kids decided to get married. The past six years have been wonderful with one great kid to show for it!

Potty Time

We have been encouraging Owen for the past 5 months to go potty. He FINALLY had success on Sunday. It has been a long road but he did it. I will spare details. I think mom and dad were way more excited than Owen was. It is time to say goodbye to baby Owen and hello big boy Owen. That was hard for me to say.

The last couple weeks ...

We have had a great last couple of weeks. First it was my oldest sister's birthday. Next was Bear Lake. We had a great camping trip it was perfect weather. It was also Heritage Days up there, and I got to catch a big fish with my hands. Unfortunately I didn't win the prize or get to keep the fish. I also didn't get any pictures of it but it was pretty funny. Next it was time to remodel our bathtub and shower enclosure. Chism's dad was a great help with the bathroom. Next was the bad Aggie game. It was a lot of fun and we had a good time. Unfortunately they lost, and I have yet to see them win.

What's Been Happening Lately

We've been so busy lately it has been hard to keep up with the responsibilities of the blog. So here is a run down of what we have been doing:
We went to the Hogle Zoo for Layla's birthday. Owen had a great time. We've been to the Logan Aquatic Center a few times this summer so Owen can keep up on what he learned during his swimming lessons. Mommy went to SLC for Auntie Collett's birthday. Grampa and Grandma Nash as well as Uncle Chase, Auntie Luz and cousins Olivia and Hunter came up for a visit on Saturday. We also went to Willow Park and took a look at the animals at that zoo as well a played in the park.
Owen has also taken to copying Dad even more so than ever. On Monday morning, Dad was mowing the lawn and as soon as Owen was dressed he raced outside and grabbed his little lawn mower to help!
Here are some of the pictures we have taken over the last few weeks:

Raspberry Days

We had our annual Raspberry Days trip. We had a great time camping out and having a fire. Owen most enjoyed the sand and water and hanging out with his cousins. Here are some pics of our great weekend.

Another Busy Summer

Well, it's been another busy summer! From Lagoon at the end of June, the Fourth of July, the 24th of July and then Bear Lake this past weekend, we've been some busy folks. Add in job interviews, a trip to Wendover, getting the house ready to put on the market and work it's a wonder we can still breathe. Yet, we managed to get most of it caught on film. So here are some pictures of the last few weeks' activities. We have some pictures of our second trip to Lagoon, Owen sitting in his booster seat like a big boy, the Fourth of July at Grandma and Grampa Nash's house and just general screwing around!
