JACK IS BACK (real quick)

It will tease, torture,  and yes the suspense will eat me alive! So they decided to do a ONE NIGHT 2 hour special on NOV. 23rd. (OH what a wonderful weekend.... 24 premier, and TWILIGHT movie! Geez, can life get better)? But the bad news, the season won't start until January! Ahhh... killer! So, we watch the premier, and then we have to sit and wait a month and a half for it to RESUME??? What were they thinking? Well, I guess they knew crazy fans like me couldn't resist and will for sure be waiting for the return of JACK!

Stewart Falls Hiking Adventure

Last Sunday we were out on a walk enjoying the beautiful weather, when we realized we have not been hiking in awhile.  Now that Grace is a little older (almost 3 months) she can fit nicely into the Baby Bjorn and Jade can ride with Daddy on her nice pack (thanks to Jen).  So... we decided let's GO!! We hiked to Stewart Falls which is up Provo Canyon past Sundance.  It was BEAUTIFUL! The colors are amazing as all the leaves are changing.  The hike took longer than we expected, but it was worth it! The weather was perfect and the fresh air was so satisfying! We had a BLAST! We were tired and dirty as we made our way back to the car.  We can't wait to do more camping next summer and enjoy the wonderful, amazing surroundings we are lucky to live around! Isn't it gorgeous? What a beautiful earth we have! 

Training 'em when they're young...

Don't call 'child protective services' ... she VOLUNTEERED to do this!! Yeah, it's great! Jade loves to help clean. So, I gave her the scrubber, and said, ' have at it'.  She did a GREAT job! :-) She also does dishes, and puts them away in the correct cabinets and drawers and everything (we'll see how long it lasts)! 

Finally some more PICS!!

Yes, I am terrible at taking pictures! I think I need to take a photography class.  I would enjoy that.  But, I had my neighbor take some photos after church last Sunday.  They both had these cute matching dresses (thanks to my friends in my ward) and Grace is already busting the dress at the seams! So, we had to take a picture before it was TOO Late! Jade had a little trouble holding on to her (poor Jade, she's almost her size already)!
