Be Careful What you ask for....

I posted on facebook to have people leave their blog addresses, alot of time I don't sleep or I am up late because of work, and I wanted to see what is going on in peoples lives, better than calling you at 12pm or 1am, anyway you get the idea.  Well Brandon Wilde left his blog.  So I went to check it out, ok I added it to my blog so I don't have to remember the address, then viewed.  They posted funny pictures of people from their wedding pictures.  I thought many some of those are bad, I wouldn't want to be one of the selected photos.  And then I remembered my kids were driving me crazy so I missed being in the temple photos.  I am safe.  Then I scrolled down the post to the end and this is what I found



A. had changed out of his church clothes into the green jacket that he wears every where and pulling this lovely face.

Blood

Have you ever been sitting and you remove a bugger from you nose, using a tissue..... and then you feel something wet beginning to run down your nose.  You think oh it must be allergies.  Then you wipe and it is red, and blood.  Yep fall is here, it dries me up and causes bloody noses.  I guess I should eat more green stuff instead of other things and I need to go the the health food store to get cholorophyll, yep it helps. I like the tablets not the liquid because I am not a cow.  I don't know how those animals do it eating grass.  What about the meat?

Raspberries

I had gone to Ashton, ID to pick some raspberries with the boys and my sister.  We didn't get many but enjoyed our selves.  I eventually smashed them a put them in double zip lock bags and placed it in the freezer.  This last weekend Eli came up and I worked.  He left after I went to work Sunday.  Then I got a call Monday morning it went like the following: 

My phone rang and I answered, it was Eli,
E: " So I took the raspberries from the freezer"
A: "What I was going to use them with the huckleberries to make jam so it is not so strong"
E: "I took them so you wouldn't make something weird.... and I forgot to put the in the freezer and I went to get dressed this morning for work and my clothes are red"
A: "Why"
E: "I put it in my suitcase"
A: "1st why would you pack it in the suitcase and 2nd serves you right for stealing my berries"
E: " well you double bagged it--stupid ziplock bags"
A: "Well maybe you won't steal"
E:"All my clothes are red"

He then left for Casper, WY the clothes were still soaking and I don't know what happened to them if they came out or are still red.

Boys- Random pictures

The boys love to do what each other is doing.  So they have backpacks, and jackets.  Here are some pictures of them playing outside.


Taking a bath together

Two curly's

I love this the hair, the look of the eyes.

Pretty much amazing, that my dad is smiling nice and everyone.

What do you think they are thinking

Watching TV, and do you think they would both look and smile nope, I took about 10 shots.

This was when A. would wear his jacket with the hood on and a hat on backwards with his backpack, so C. would wear a backpack and boots that were A.

Coming the rock stairs.

A. was worried that the deer would not be able to eat the grass and starve so he was shoveling the snow so they would have grass to eat.

Team work

Skiing the Canyons, in Park City Utah

We had some lift tickets that we got by going to the Canyons and listening about owning a timeshare. Yeah little did they know we had no jobs and no money, haha we got the tickets and you could choose any resort we went to the Canyons Resort.  It was huge and the had added one since Eli has been and have more plans to add on.  It was beautiful everything was covered in snow ok 3 feet of power fresh. We were on run that were not groomed, I like groomed it is hard for me to turn in the thick stuff.  And skiing past beautiful homes wow, I kept thinking what do these people do?

I had to go to the bathroom, and where I was they were only outhouses.  I was shocked when I got in, granite countertops, and it smelled great.  So I know people were wondering what I was doing, what ever one does take pictures.

/the outhouse aka royal restrooms

I forgot, to grab goggles lost somewhere in a box who knows where, so I wore....
A.'s lightening mcqueen, after a while I took them off they were squishing my brain.


Eli with his board

Labor Day- aka Fun Days

Activies:
They brought their 8 horses up so they went on a ride for an hour,
came back and then went on homoney.

Dan Fishler, Eli, Daniel-a relative to Matt Allison, and Brad Allison.
Dan rode blue, Eli rode Tonka, Daniel rode Chip, and Brad rode Bo.

The first ride A. rode with Eli. 




A. loves to ride.


C. before they left, He also loves horses but we have not taken him on a long ride.

Dan getting ready for his ride, and his dad Mark helping him, giving him pointers.
Dont you love the pink saddle bags.

A. brought his baseball and tees he got for his birthday, truck, tractor, golf balls which he
would hit off the tee, the make a better hit sound- it sounds like the pros.

We walked around to see the creek

Hunted Huckleberries

Huckleberry plant


My berries after picking for an hour, and watching 2 kids, more C, so he wouldn't eat the wrong berries.

Rode 4-wheelers, Rzr

Talked

Cooked

Sometime we shoot guns, for targets, we left before that,
but the older guys did shoot guns some of Seth's and it scared the horses and kids.

Roasted marshmellows

Looked at the stars

Huddled around the fire sometimes it was cold and very windy.
Dan Fishler, Eli, and Mark Fishler Chatting after eating around the fire.

C. loved playing with this wagon.


Say Cheese, wait you dont have to because we are full of cheese.

Before going riding the kids got on their gear,
boots hats and chaps
A. and a friedn he met kenzlie.

C. A. Kenzlie

Aren't they so cute.


I took this leaving and while driving, that is why the windshield is dirty.  It was really windy that day about 30-45 mph.  But I wanted to show how wooded it is.

I love driving up to the place, this is looking around at the farm land with the trees, and the dirt, it was really windy.

I have to post this since we camp by them but closer, this is about 20 minutes away but you can't get a clear view when you are camping of the Tetons Mts.  The day I took this it was really windy and caused it to be very hazy.

This is by left shoulder-what is left, C. bit me on the side where you rotate your arm and it hurt.
He drew blood, and it had a huge welt for several days.  Two weeks later it still has marks of teeth.

A. & C. Birthday Day Celebration

So being lazy and not wanting to do two parties I didn't.
We combined them, right now C. doesn't know and A. doesn't care.

We had a party at Eli's parents in Wanship, Ut.
We were late because of road construction, I was going to get some stuff in Riverdale, by Ogden, UT but a semi truck had wrecked and caught on fire so the off ramp to get back on was closed. So it was
good that Kathy-Eli's mom made a cake.

A. received cowboy boots from Grandma Frahm and Grandpa Frahm
Cowboy Hat from Aunt Mary, and an outfit that included a zip up jacket
Baseball Tee, Bat and Balls and stuffed doll sheep from Eli and I & Cameron
Binos from Grandpa Pace and Grandma Pace
Some models to put together from Sadie, Boston, and Izzy

C. got a matching short and shirt outfit that has Thomas the train and talks and so did A. from Aunt Mary.
Eli, me and A. got him some toy dinos and a puzzle.
Toni got the boys stuffed animals C. a moose and A. a buffalo.
C. got a tractor from grandma and grandp frahm
grandma and grandpa pace got him a front end loader
Sadie, Boston and Izzy got him some little yellow trucks and mader from toy story that you insert a plastic thing pull and it goes.

Coyoetes and new friend

Going in for the kill.  Eli has found a love to hunting coyotes.  He loves to try and call them in and pop them off.  He found a friend that live in Tollgate, an exit by Wanship, Utah that loves to hunt and he has a fox pro call.  It is an electronic device that has many different recorded sounds to call in different animals.

So they went to Wolf Creek up past Woodland, Utah to try it out.  They saw several and killed one.



Someone asked me what they do with them, leave the varmints, because I don't want their disease.


/New friend, shooting buddy, hunting buddy.
This is Pat Jones

Homoney Horse Ride

Eli loves to ride and Jim Bollinger and Eli decided to go on a ride the next day after we rode to Hidden Lake.  I opted to not go my butt was sore enough.  They rode to Homoney.



I think this picture has elk in the upper parts of the mts.

I would have a tired look too.





They were scoping out some elk.  This is Jim Bollinger.
