Beards are not allowed at BYU

We have the coolest projects in my makeup class. Today was my first attempt at putting on a beard. It required 5 dollars worth of hair (wool), and a teaspoon of spirit gum (makeup glue). I got some great looks from my fellow students as i walked home from class. YAY for beards.

Legos & Fall

David and Stephen wanted to see how high they could build a lego tower. It was pretty cool. When they were done we took turns shooting it with a rubber band trying to see who could knock it over. All is took was one rubberband hitting it and over it went.

These are just some pretty fall pictures that Katie took of the tree in our backyard.

Ciara + Quad = a trip to the ER

Yesterday Ciara went out to priarie city to ride quads with her friend Marissa and her family. They were having lots of fun until their quad flipped sending Marissa and Ciara into space. Ciara has no memory of what happened. We took Ciara to the ER because she was acting funny. She has a concussion but no broken bones. She is fine just really sore. No quad riding for her for a long while. Here are some pictures of her boo boos

road rash on her wrist, elbow and hip




When I first saw Ciara her face was covered with dirt, infact she had dirt everywhere, but she had dirt all stuck in her braces and a fat lip

Mr. Perry's

Friday morning after our performance we decided to go out to breakfast. Mr. Perry's is one of our favorite places to go for breakfast, so we decided to go there. While we were waiting for our food Stephen began telling us a story about something that happened during the morning performance of Aristocats but as he started telling it he began laughing and started laughing so hard that he couldn't even talk which in turn made us all laugh at him laughing so hard which in turn made practically everyone in the whole restaurant turn to look at us and wonder what was so funny. In fact, the whole meal was a little embarrassing because we just couldn't stop laughing. Even our waitress said something to us. You see we were laughing so hard we were crying and she said something like "oh don't cry the food isn't that bad". I think the people right next to us thought we were crazy. Anyway, it was lots of fun, even if it was embarrassing -- you just have embrace those moments because they don't come along that often. And it makes me just love my family!

Honor Roll

We wanted to share some very exciting news with everyone. David has been working very hard at school and has wanted to make the honor roll for the last 3 years. He has been close several times but finally after lots of hard work he made it! We are very proud of him and his accomplishment.
