{Halloween}

Halloween can get a little crazy when Dave's sister is involved :)

We didn't really have a desire to go out that night but they wouldn't take no for an answer.

Result?

Dave dressed up like a girl.  She always wanted a sister!

And Jeff ended up being a girl too

They were a hit at the party!  We even found the theme this year had a lot of men dressed up as women

And us girls...well we were just cute!  No cross dressing for us!

He is sure lucky I love him!  He looks better is tights than I do!

Then at work I got talked into dressing up as the Three Amigos.  If you know me, you know that I HATE dressing up.  But this turned out fun and we looked awesome!

This was another group that cracked me up.  They were called "The wrong direction"
an old man boy band.  I have a signed picture of them.  I'm sure it will be worth some money one of these days

Buddy the Elf was there.  Who doesn't love Buddy!  He did really good at keeping in character.

I am really a party pooper about Halloween and I feel bad that Garrett gets the crap end of the deal.  I forget that he is still young enough to do these things.  He was able to throw a costume together and him and Izaak went as nerds.

This kid IS too old to dress up!  I'm not about to go spend $40.00 on a costume.  So he gets to dress up in an old costume.

{Remembering}

Today marks the 6th year that Dave's dad passed away.  He was a great man!  He didn't have an easy life but he made the best of what he had.  He was such a hard worker even when is health wasn't that great.  And he had a laugh that made you smile!

We went to dinner with Dave's sister and his mom to celebrate his life.  One of his favorite places to eat was Brick Oven.

 

{Race Time} {Engaged}

Jeff invited us to the races at Miller Motor Sports and we had a blast!

We have so much fun with him, Tara and the kids.

 

Dave and Jeff are such goof balls together  They crack me up!

At the end of the night I got this text.....She said Yes!!!! 

Along with these pictures

I am so excited for them!  They are so cute together!

{Nascar}

 Dave was able to get tickets from work to Nascar in Vegas.

 

We are not Nascar fans...at all....BUT

Vegas?

Why not!?

Any excuse to get away.

 

This is what I did for 5 hours

 

We dropped the kids off at my Dad & Vickie's in St George

 

Then we met up with these 2 crazy people!

I freaking love them!

Tara is the only reason we spend time with Dave's family

Then to add Jeff into the mix is EVEN BETTER

Love that guy to death!

So glad they are together!

 

The first day was a little chilly.  Watching cars go around in circles is exciting

at first

Then it gets a little old

BUT

the people watching is AMAZING!

 

 

Dave got some quality time in with his sister

Who knew skipping was so fun! hahaha

 

Yep, he is all mine ladies...back off!

 

Then we hit the town and had a blast!

 

I think we are too old for Vegas

We were TIRED!

 

Next day the weather was beautiful!

We watched the races and then headed home.

It was a fun little getaway

{Birthday Party}

FOR THE LOVE!!!! Can it quit snowing already!? Yes we just got about an inch of snow on the ground this morning. I'm ready to move somewhere warm since Utah isn't providing that right now. Please remind me in the summer when I am complaining that it is too hot that it could be worse! I would much rather be hot.

On Saturday we went to my Sister-in-Law (Tara's) birthday party. Now that Dave's family is getting closer (weird how a death in the family does that to ya) We had a great time!

We spent a little time outside while the sun was shining. The boys even found a clown bike to ride. We laughed our pants off when Dave started riding it!

This is Tara, me and my soon to be sister-in-law Kelsey. I love hanging out with these 2! They crack me up. And the kids got a hold of my camera. These are just a few of the pictures they took. I think my entire memory card was filled up.

Not so cute Kory!
Cousins
Her parents are in so much trouble!
