We need music on our blog. What song do ya'll think is fit? We are a Happy Family or some Elvis for Dad? I nominate Nate for this.

Lexie and friends going to the high school championship football play offs (at the U, I must add). I don't know how much of the game she saw with her hair in her eyes.

Go UTES (on Sat.). Its going to be rowdy! You know we have three Ute grads in the fam.

I told my girls that they can cheer for the U, because of their Dad-aka a Ute fanatic. And to find their spouse at the Y. I think that is wise advice.

Look at Syd's ear. Weird! All the great advice I have whispered in her ear is now evident.

Oma looks great for 83. A good thing she does her daily exercises with her cane.

Hello Family,

I'm hoping this will work, I'm such a goof when it comes to this blogging stuff. I will try to keep in better touch with everyone, as the few times I have been on it, I enjoyed it. Hope everyone is doing well.........looking forward to seeing everyone on the Holidays!

Cheers!

Meeting my Utah Family

Uncle Nate is a pro at this baby thing. Hopefully he'll have another one soon.

Help? I don't know who this crazy lady is... j/k we love Great Grandma.

Maybe one day I'll have enough hair for Aunt Tiffy to style.

After holding me Aunt Angie told my mom she wished she could have a baby :)

Sydney is one of my BFF's. I love her.

Handsome Boy...hanging out at Grandma B's. Between my mom and Grandma I was held 24/7.

Getting excited for Halloween!

Cougar was a ducky. He only made it to two houses before he decided the party was over and went to sleep.

Halloween

Spookier things are afoot! One little girl passing by our house thought it was real and was almost in tears. The kids thought it was funny! Our neighbor across the street was wondering what Randy was up to and then decided she had rather not know.

Cayden was Survivor Man, Madalyn a diva named Pumpkin Spice, Cayleb was a snake for our ward Trunk or Treat and then decided to be an army man which was never on the list until Friday morning, (his other options were dragon, superman and pumpkin), Makayla was Twister the board game and Makenzy was a ladybug on the leaf. Our other option was baby on the hip or growth on the wart - the first wasn't too original and the second was a little complicated; wart costumes are hard to come by!

In the other picture we went to the Cedar River to see the salmon run - the largest sockeye salmon run in the U.S. except for Alaska. It was really neat to see them swimming upstream and making their nests. As you know, the salmon is an icon of the pacfic Northwest and were one of the lunchpin species that susutained human populations for years. Cayden has also been studying the salmon life cycle in his class. These salmon migrate from this river just minutes from our house to Lake Washington, then to the ocean. They spend about 2-4 years in the ocean and then make the trip back to their birthplace by swimming through the Ballard Chittenden Locks (Nate and Ash went with us there), back to Lake Washington and up the Cedar River because they can only reproduce in fresh water (Mom and Dad and Randy's sisters have been to the River with us).
