Random Pictures

It has been nice to slow down a bit this month.... Brett has been watching a lot of football and loving it! We have some fun things coming up in the next little bit and will post a lot of pictures.



Wanna travel????? ME TOO! I just barely got my passport and I am so excited.... now I wish I had lots of money to go somewhere!
We are going to Cancun for Christmas (actually leaving on the 23rd)- we are so excited! I have never spent Christmas away from home, and have never been to Cancun, so we're looking forward to it.
I have been off work quite a bit this month (Dr's been hunting), and have seen a few Rachael Ray's shows- she had this really yummy looking French Onion Soup I just had to try and make. Well.... 2.5 hrs later it didn't quite taste like Im sure hers did. (maybe I didn't "carmelize" my onions correctly (not even sure what that means!!!)

We have been golfing at Gladstan in Payson a few times and it is so pretty up there- I love it. This is looking north as a storm was coming in


Us at the Golf course



I recently joined some friends for Indian food (Bombay House) for the first time. I was very nervous I wasn't going to find something I would like, but I found a really great dish and loved it. Brett said he was certain I shouldn't bring home leftovers, but I did and he liked it too. We will definitely be going back.

Me and Brett's Birthdays are pretty close and Brett's parents got us a joint present... PATIO FURNITURE!!! Because it looks so good and it is starting to get colder outside we just set it up inside are are really LOVING it!!! It matches our floor perfectly- Thanks to the Christensen family, they are the best!





We recently went 4-wheeling around Genola in the mountains, here is the view of Genola from the top! We are really loving it here.
Well, that's about it.... for now anyway!

Camping again


We went camping again last weekend down by Manti and Sterling. Brett has been fishing a lot this year so that's been fun for him. I'm not much of a 'fisher', so I just usually hang out.
My perfect family


Brett and Brett with some of their fish they caught.

We went to three different places to fish, but only one of the places had a lot of fish.


Us at Ferron reservoir they day it rained very hard.



Brett fishing
We are starting to wind down and hopefully will be spending more time at home- it seems like we're always gone doing something.
I have updated our blog a little with Lake Powell pics.


Labor Day Lake Powell trip

We went to Lake Powell for Labor Day with my family for the last trip of the year. It was really fun and there is another post after this of our hike.

Look at my next post for pics of the hike at Lake Powell.

The Hike

At Lake Powell we went on a really cool hike. We go up a slot canyon, swim to the end, and then hike to the top. It is very tight quarters and everyone helps each other because some spots are very hard. It was very fun and we had a blast.

My hot husband

Brett helping Ty on the hike

Most people turn around here, but not our family.... Bryan, Brent, and Brett all tried to climb the rock to make it over the top rock- Bryan finally made it and then got us all up with the rope.

Me and Brett (as always Brett is SO EXCITED to have his picture taken)




Our family at the end of the hike. We found another boat at the bottom and they also joined us- about 20 people in all.
