A frightful night making ghouls and goblins.
So much Halloween fun!
My two beautiful sister in laws and my wonderful Mother in law took a little trip up to S.L for some girl time. We shopped at Tai Pan for some super cute Halloween decorations and started doing a little Christmas shopping. We did a lot of putting things in the cart and taking things out of the carts because there is just too many cute things to buy. We kept asking ourselves do we LOVE IT or LOVE, LOVE IT or the big one, do we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT.... a little trick I use when I can't decide if I want to get something or not. It has to have the 3 loves attached to it. Silly, I know but it works for me.
It's my birthday.Lucky 13
Mad rock band skills.
Bridger and the boys rockin out.
Goodbye and thanks for coming.
Best friends.

It's "crazy" that I have another kid that is old enough to go to his first school dance.
This was Aubrey's 16th birthday party last year. We had it at the Mapleton barn and invited a ton of her friends. The theme was "sweet 16" so we had a "candy bar" set up with cotton candy and all of her favorite sweet treats. It was so fun to see her with all of her close friends enjoying her life. They danced all night to a DJ that we hired (that was a big hit.) She will be 17 in November and I can't believe how time flys . I love this girl so much, she hasn't given us TOO much trouble just the normal stuff and for that I am grateful (knocking on wood.) She is so fun to be around and has ALWAYS been so helpful to Regan and I. I can't imagine not having her around and I don't look forward to when she moves away. I will be sooo happy for her but I'll be sooo sad for me. I have one more year with her until she goes away to collage so we are going to enjoy every minute of it. 
This was Mckray's first year playing flag football with the 3rd and 4th grade leagues. He was a little disappointed at first that he didn't get to play with pads and helmets but got over it quickly. He will be able to play tackle football when he is in 5th grade. Like I have said before Mckray loves sports and he loved football. He knew when every game was and times and practices. I write all that important stuff on my calendar but most of the time he kept me informed and I never had to tell him to get ready for practice or a game because he already knew or was already dressed and ready to go. That is something that I love and admire about this kid, he has such a love of life and is sooo passionate about anything he is doing. He kept the coaches in line also, a couple of times there would be too many guys on the field and he would tell the coaches and sure enough a player would have to come off the field. He is so aware of his surroundings and sometimes I wonder if it is because of his hearing loss that his other senses are so heightened. He doesn't let his lack of being able to hear very well get in the way of life and he is such a great example of that to me. He never feels sorry for himself or stops doing what he really wants to do and I hope that he never looses that. 
They made it to the Superbowl and they could not have been more excited. We only made it through the first round but they really played well and we were all proud of how hard they worked this year as a team. Way to go 49ers!!!!

It was a fantastic year! All the kids and parents and coaches were so great to work with and I already can't wait till next season.
"If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen." 
"Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars... and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they are not going to become prime ministers or presidents and they are not going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers - for no reason. It is simply unbelievable how happy flowers are. " ~Osho

He drives a Harley Davidson street bike. The rest of the guys mostly race with drag motorcycles. He is a lover of a Harley and has another one that he drives around town with.
The next Drag race winner!!! Mckray really got in to it and it didn't surprise us at all because he loves anything that is competitive.
