Food Storage

We found the best food storage, thanks to the Jeppesons, called Daily Bread. For those of us that do not know what to do with 1000's of pounds of wheat and flour this place is the answer. We had the guy come out and did an little taste test and the food is great. It has a shelf life of at least 25 years and 6 months worth takes up very little space. It is like the mountain house food if you have ever tried that during camping or hiking. You just add water. Anywho you should check it out www.dailybreadus.com It is awesome, the guy was not pushy at all and he was happy to help with all the food storage needs. Awesome!

Temple Square

Monday we went to Temple Square for FHE and it was so much fun. I love to go to the temple and see the lights. It was so neat to still hear President Hinckley's voice during the story of baby Jesus being born.

What we've been up to.

We have had so much fun this month preparing for Halloween. The kids had a great time trick-or-treating. We always have a great time with our neighbors on Halloween. Thanks Erin for letting us come and hang out.

My brother-in-law runs this gigantic track hoe and Gavin thought it would be fun to stand inside the bucket.

Anniversary

It is our anniversary today. 13 years!!! It is hard to believe it has been this long. It has been a great 13 years and I am looking forward to the next. I am so lucky to have Tyler for my husband. He takes such great care of me and our family. He works very hard for us and I wouldn't know what to do without him. He is my best friend and I love and appreciate him very much.

Mornings !@#$@!

We love mornings at our house. The kids are so excited to go to school.

I get out of bed every morning and tell myself that this will be a good morning, I think that if I do this everyday we are bound to have one.

Yellowstone and Bear Tooth Pass Ride

Yellowstone
So Cold!!

Yellowstone and Bear Tooth Pass Ride

We just got back from our motorcycle trip to Yellowstone. We did just around 1100 miles in 4 days. My butt seriously hurts. Here are a bunch of pics of our trip. We went over Bear Tooth Pass and it was 39 degrees @ 11, 000 feet and as you can see we were riding in the snow. Nothing else but the snow can live up there because it is so freaking cold. Luckily I had a nice heated vest and many layers of clothes on to keep from having frost bite. Anyway we had a great time, I love all the people that we ride with they are such a great group. I cannot wait to do it again. Enjoy the pic's.

Big boys like big toys! When will it ever end???

This is Tyler's new hobby with his uncles. He is all about speed these days.

Gavin says they are like the "Men in Black".

Jason's wedding
