Relief Society Meeting and Temple Square

We were down in Utah last weekend when Grandma called me and Daidree and told us that she had two extra tickets to the 2011 Relief Society Meeting! How on earth could I have said no to that? So Daidree was super excited to go see the prophets and go to Temple Square for the first time! This is a picture of her in front of Joseph Smith statue in Deseret Book.

Daidree and Grandma in front of one of the world's most famous statues of Christ.

These last pictures are of Grandma, Me and Daidree in the conference center after the meeting. It was such a wonderful message filled meeting!

Root Beer!

For mutual, Daidree and the mimaids were in charge of the drinks and main dish for a dutch oven cookoff. Daidree got put in charge of the drinks. So guess what she made for the first time? Root Beer!!!!! It was very delicious!

That's right, she used a cooler to put the root beer in!

Look at how concentrated she is at making it. She stood there for an hour stirring it and later found out she just needed to let it set. Haha!

Fall Pictures!

Dristin with his amazing goofy looking smile.

My two adorable daughters. One day the were just messin' around when Daidree got bored and decide to make her and Bells look cute enough for pictures. Believe it or not she took this in the backyard by the fence. Suprisingly this picture turned out really good!

Bella

This is one of those days that I feel like making my babie's hair look cute and take lots of pictures! She was actually happy that I did this because she "looks like a princess." I agree with her. My little cutie!

Football

Dristin the little jock is such a good football player! He is so excited to be playing for the middle school!

Audios High Schoolers!

The school system this year is different to what the normal school schedule usually is. The High Schoolers (due to sports and other after school activities) get to have Fridays off and only once a month they have to go on a Friday. But because of this system, they get to start earlier than the Middle School and Elementarys, and end later than the other schools. So this morning, Dom and Daidree were sent off to their first day of school today, while the younger kids stay home until next week. Then I have the house all to myself with Bella going to Preschool!

Happy 12th birthday Dristin! Wow, I can't believe you are now old enough to recieve the priesthood, and old enough to play middle school football! His birthday was such a busy day! We had to pick up Daidree's friend for them to go raise money and work, then to pick up Dristin's friends to go to the bowling alley! Crazy!
