Halloween at the Petersen's

The Petersen's annual Halloween party! We are so lucky to have all of our family around!

Grandma telling Halloween stories!

Jack just waking up from a nap.
Seriously, how cute are those cheeks!!

Grandma made every family a Halloween cat and Jack decided it was all his!

Halloween at the Leatham's

We had so much fun at the annual Leatham Halloween party. We ate yummy food and carved pumpkins!

DeEtte, Madi and Ellie

Hilary, Curtis and Dallin

Betsy and Fletch

Davis looking scary without his costume!

You know Dad's in charge when a one year old has a knife in their mouth!

We were trying to pictures of the kids with their pumpkins and we had some meltdowns. I can't even remember what they were about but I love how mad Madi and Davis are.

Good old uncle Fletch finally got them to smile!

Brothers

The older Jack gets the more him and Davis play together. They are so much fun to watch. Davis has the laundry hamper tied to him and is dragging Jack all over the house.

Redneck Therapy

To describe what kind of a family we are I believe Obama put it best, We cling to our Bibles and our Guns!

Today as Kelly puts it I was accessorizing (notice the tape measure hanging off my pocket) but with a little more than the tape measure.
If you just happen to be a bank teller this will give you some comfort, this is an old teller window out of a bank. The first few rounds are out of an XD .40, the next are out of a ruger 10 22 then a 5.7 x 28 and the large burst are both the .40 and the 5.7 x 28 after the large bust of rounds is a 38 special and finishing off everything is another clip of .40. We are shooting from about 30 ft away. (I'm not to interested in shooting any closer then that.)

Here's whats left after it was blown over by a shot gun. It was definitely good times and comes highly recommended as a good stress reliever.

Sunday Morning

I am not the only one exhausted before I even get to church on Sunday. Davis fell asleep on his scriptures waiting to have prayer on Sunday morning!

Fall Cleaning

Isn't it amazing how much crap gets under the couch cushions. These are pictures of the boys helping me vacuum out the couch during Saturday cleaning.

Mark Junior

Cultural Event of the Summer!

Some people go to the symphony some to the ballet others to musicals but around here we get our culture in a much more practical and budget friendly way!

DEMOLITION DERBY!!!!

I've been to many derby's before but I will say Spanish Fork has hands down the best derby that I have been to.

This Beast made those Mary K caddies look like sissy cars.

Look at the satisfaction on their faces!

Some day I'll be out there bashing away in my own car. As for now I'll just instill in my boy a little bit of red neck.

Sleep - Eating

They're Home!!!!!!

Yippee! I am soooo happy to have my parents home. It was a very exciting day. I could not believe how happy Davis and Dallin were to have Grandma and Grandpa home too. Davis worked very hard on the sign and we even checked him out of school to go to the airport!

Jack and I met them first because we were taking rides on the escalator! Check out the tears on my mom.

Group photo!

Davis had to try on every single necklace my parents brought home.

Grandpa showing off his new toy.

Jumping right back in to being Grandpa!
