November 2016

These cuties got their school pictures back.  Lincoln is in kindergarten, Sterling is in 2nd grade, and Makayla is in 4th.

Scott had a throat scope to see why he has difficulty swallowing.  Turns out he has acid reflux enough for a prescription.

We took a load of junk to the dump. We got rid of lots of things in the garage.

Built some helicopters at Home Depot.

We stopped at Nickelmania in Springville.

We traveled to Cedar City for Thanksgiving.

Emiliya painted Christie some shoes with a "Tangled" theme.

She was pretty excited!

Christie and Emiliya.

We did a fried turkey this year along with a baked one.

The cousins sat at one table and the adults at another.

Delicious!

Scott snuggled the pets.

The boys teased Mason.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We adventured to the Moroni Cave.  Supposedly Moroni, from the Book of Mormon, hid out here when he was being persecuted.

Inside the cave.

Each family got their photo taken.

Bryan and Candi's family.

Christie and Scott's family.

Grandpa and Grandma.

Quite the view!

Cousin bonding time.

A random picture I found on Grandma's phone.  All of Christie's kids plus Mason.

After, we played at the park for a bit.

Then we ate at La Fiesta.  Someone was worn out!

He slept good this night, even with a nightlight in his hand.

These two slept well also.

Actually getting along, yay!


We played lots of games and watched the new Star Trek movie.  What a great Thanksgiving break!

Ben and Rachel's Wedding

Ben and Rachel chose to be married and sealed on Friday, October 21, 2016 in the Oquirrh Mountain Temple, on a crisp autumn day.

Everything was beautiful.

They are happy together.

So in love.

Their colors were navy blue and gray.

Ben chose 5 groomsmen including brother Danny and best friend Kyle Healy.

All Ben's siblings in age order: Maisy, Kristin, Wendy, Danny, and Maria.

Next, all the nieces and nephews on Ben's side; missing Will and Xander.

One more family shot.

Lunch was at the Pizza Pie Cafe.  The reception was at Rachel's stake center.

The whole family. (minus Blair, Will and Xander)

Siblings and spouses.

Mom and Dad.

Pretty cake display.

After some photobooth pics (don't know where mine are)....

And some dancing.......

The happy couple drove blissfully away.

Congratulations Ben and Rachel! You make a great couple!
