My Adorable Niece, Visitors, Yellowstone, Conference, Best Friends...

First of all I wanted to post something funny Gavin said the other day...

Me: Gavin, will you help me clean up your toys so that I can vacuum?

Gavin: No
Me: I'm gonna spank your bum!
Gavin: Well come over here & spank it then!

Can you believe that? It was really hard not to laugh. He never talks back like that so I was in shock! Where do they learn these things?

Now for an up-date with pictures...

My sister & her husband had a baby girl in August and she is beautiful! She weighed 10 lbs & was 22 inches long! Poor Ronda! We are so happy for them to be parents. Here are some pictures of when she was born... (I know, it is really sad that I am just now posting pictures from August!)

And here are some pictures from her blessing day. She is a gorgeous baby! Also in August: Brent's brother, his wife & their 3 adorable boys came from Maryland for a visit! We were glad we got to spend some time with them while they were staying at Brent's parents house. Here are some pictures from their stay & some of us at Tony Grove...

In September we went to Yellowstone with Brent's cousin, his wife & their cute kids. We were hoping to see more wildlife, but that's okay! We still had a good time. We camped there for 3 nights & it was cold but fun! It was Gavin's first time camping in a tent & he loved it! On the way home he said, "I don't want to live in Bear Lake anymore. I want to live in a tent at Yellowstone." Oh boy, no thanks!!!

The Hirschi family has a tradition of going & staying at their family cabin (The Hirschi Hide-out) during conference. I love family traditions like that! We took some four wheelers up the canyon to see the pretty leaves. It was so nice to be with family and listen to conference.


I got to go stay in Park City with my best buddy Wendy a few weekends ago. Her work paid for 3 nights at Hotel Park City (so nice!). Her husband Sean couldn’t go, so she asked me to join her! It was awesome! We actually stayed there a few years ago & had so much fun so I feel spoiled that I got to go again! Thanks Wend! You’re the best & I love ya bunches! (And thanks to my mom for watching Gavin for me so that I could go!)
