Its about time! FALL!!!

I was hoping to rope someone into climbing the Y with me this weekend...not thinking Shawn would be around!
To my surprise - HE WAS!
And ended up being the lucky candidate to carry the over 40 pound pack up and down!
It was glorious.
I love this family I call my own!  Weird to see me in the pic : )

Perfect day...right?!

Loving dads company.
And Evans walking stick -
that the kids ended up fighting over it and sitting on the trail for a small time out...
but we won't mention that ever happened cause kids don't fight when they are supposed to be having fun...right?!
Stick got tossed back up into its family of trees...thank you stick.

Still haven't gotten enough of this goodness.
I could live in the mountains.
I really think I could...with the help of Shawns hunting skills...and some deodorant...Id be good.
Tinfoils. Smores. Fire. Stars. Fresh crisp air -
and 2 loads of laundry each trip.
Still worth it.

Wesly got to know uncle Coulton a little better.

So did Evan.  He really took an interest in Coultons beard.  Couldn't stop petting him.
Guess with the BYU job - he can't remember dad with anything but a little stubble.

Beautiful sister. We Love her.

A different trip.
A perfect picture.
Another 2 loads of laundry : )
I make the kids strip in the laundry room before they enter the house.
I love the smell of campfires - but not in there sheets!

A Sunday adventure to Tibblefork.
Getting colder - So we panic.
We try to capture every last bit of fresh air minus the snow!

Another night of tinfoils.
This time I pre-cooked them so we could just warm them and eat quickly.
Its torturous to wait:)
>>>I promise Elsies face didn't get 1st degree burns<<<
By the looks of this pic...Im not sure how she didn't!
