THRILLER AND RUTH'S DINER

October 24 2015

Jessica and Debbie invited us girls to go to THRILLER at Kingsbury Hall. It was nothing like I had expected! I enjoyed the dancing a lot but some parts were just way too long and a little weird. Glad I went but wouldn't see this every year as a tradition. It was so much fun just being with all the girls.
 We took a pic while waiting for Jess and Deb to get the tickets from Will Call
 Here we are: Mona, Mikell,, Jessica, Deb, Mom Ashley, Jana, Diane, Me and Morgan
                                We entertain ourselves with Selfies waiting for the play to begin.
                                       I love these three cuties! Jessica, Mikell, and Ashley
                                                 Mona, Mom, Me, Morgan and Diane
Jana (Brody's Mom), Debbie, Jessica, Morgan and Ashley 
                                                     Me, Morgan and Diane

Afterwards, those who could, drove up IMMIGRATION CANYON to eat at RUTH'S DINER. I have always loved eating here when I was dating back in the 1980's and haven't been back for 30 years and I still loved it! The food was great. and there's always something fun about eating outside in the mountains and with the FALL LEAVES in bloom, it did not disappoint! Thanks for the fun day girls!
                                                          Me and my sweet Ashley

                                        Jana took one so I could be in the pic. Thanks Jana!
 


Most of us ordered the Meatloaf, Potatoes and Veggies. They did not disappoint! This fed me for 3 meals. Not kiddin'!    We also ordered an appetizer, my favorite! Fried Okra and Pickles...delish!

PUMPKIN CARVING PARTY

October 23, 2015

We all met at Dad's and had a PUMPKIN CARVING PARTY! We had a POTATO BAR (thanks to the Bastian's for the Idaho spuds!), with chili and cheese over Frito's etc...and Mikell brought her delicious CARAMEL POPCORN!

Ashley and Lytton also brought all their leftover PUMPKINS from their PATCH. We had gone up a few weeks ago and got our PUMPKINS and she let the Young Women in her Ward and another family to come get some PUMPKINS so these were the leftovers. They were on the small side but they still worked great!

We CARVED and CHATTED and had a great time! I usually don't CARVE, I just take pics so I decided this year I would CARVE me a PUMPKIN.  I wanted it to be SPIDERMAN but I didn't have the right tool to lightly shave the web so I messed it up. Instead mine was a mean SCARFACE! Once we lit it up it looked mean and I liked it!

Check out the FUN!

                                                          My little Waylon eating potatoes!
 I died laughing when I saw Mom dressed like this! She is so wacky when it comes to the holidays. She thought she was so funny and I just hoped she wouldn't get in a wreck on the way home. How embarrassing!
                                                                            Party Grandma!
                                     My attempt at a selfie with Ashley. Sorry Ashley!
 Remington kept stealing the donuts. He ate 3 in like 3 seconds flat! Silly boy!
 Boston is obsessed with Ruger! He holds this puppy all night long!

                  Look at the loads of pumpkins Ashley and Lytton brought! Thank you!
 Mona begins the carving process. She is always so good at this kind of stuff.
 We were so shocked to see Graham! He has grown a foot in the past few months! Holy cow!

 These little boys sure love jumping off Grandpa's stairs. This keeps them entertained for a long time!

                                      These are fuzzy but I loved getting the boys in the air!
 
                                                     Man alive! I love these three boys!
 My Remi is such a big boy! He totally cracks me up. I just love watching him to see what he's going to do next!
