All in a Nutshell!

Where has the time gone? I've been neglecting my blog(my journal) that I print out and file in a notebook. Hey, it's an easy way for me to keep motivated on keeping a journal but lately it has been hard to keep up with what has been going on in the past few months. There's just not enough time time in the day to get what you would like done.
So I will start by venturing back to early September.....SOCCER!!

Caitlyn has really warmed up to playing and actually enjoyed the last of her games. She even "almost" scored a goal at her last game. I was able to watch only a few of her games due to Ballet Solana's dance show practices(which I will feature later) but Grandma and Team Coach Daddy where always there to support her and cheer her on.

Here she is warming up with Aubry.


Our Goal Keeper



Buddies!


A champion Team "GO HAWKS"


A great coach and proud Dad!


Pioneer Day celebration was simple and fun! Our view of the fireworks is fantastic. It's so close it's as if you can touch them. Caitlyn however did not take her finger out of her ears once!

Can you see the fear in her eyes?


Kylee had no worries?


Love her pout!


County Fair in Salt Lake was NOTHING compare to LA county fair in home town California but it was nice. Highlight was the rainstorm but it was worth the time together, the all you can eat ice cream and fun encounters with friends!

The animals were fun and great getaway out of the rain, stinky but memorable like this one! GOT MILK?


Had to have a pony ride! She chose the smallest!


A much needed love pat!


Can't drive into Salt Lake and not stop at IKEA on your way back home, so we did and for any one interested Monday nights is family night. They had a FREE balloon artist and face painter there for the children. They also had all you can eat pasta for $1.99. Not the greatest but a great deal!


My Family has been down for the past two weeks. First my cousins Mike and Ricky and Uncle Joe and then my Father. It was so nice to have them out here. I didn't want them to go back but that's life and we all move on. I just wish they would move on out here! we made one trip to The Grotto up the canyon and the scenery was amazing.

Look at all those colors!


Cousin Rick!


Mike taking the lead and who Caitlyn loves!


Don't fall!


We made it to the waterfall!


One of my favorites!


We headed north and ended up at the Gateway to stroll the mall and of course ended up by the water show!


On our way home we made a stop at Bridal Veil Falls up the Provo Canyon.


I hear they are panning to remake the tram to get to the top of the mountain. They may even reopen that restaurant that was once there long ago!




Cracker Barrel Restaurant is always on our list to eat at with family down.


With the overnight weather change we had to clean out the bath tub and dive in! I was a little too excited and added to much soap!


Raspberry picking was not over for me and Uncle Joe. We picked and canned 15 jars so he could take home!


Daddy bought Caitlyn a new puppy!!!! She had to take it to preschool and it was so funny and had to capture the moment!


Grandpa came down and it was soooo nice to spend time with him! We did lots of things like, the Grotto trail again,the pumpkin patch, Peteetneet Mueseum(Actually quite interesting)walks, laughs and memories I hold close to heart!


I've burnt myself out writing all this down so I'm taking a break till I build my motivation for a new one!
