Shooting with the Largey Family- Oct. 22, 2016

It's always fun to go out and shoot targets and have some family time.  This is the first time that Calvin was able to shoot, he loved it and we made sure we stressed the rules of guns.  As for these big kids this is some thing they enjoy and I love that they are always so excited to shoot.

We tried teaching the kids how to throw the skeets.  It's tricky.  

Jared is worried one might get him.

Family Pumpkin Carving- Oct. 15, 2016

We love carving pumpkins.  It is so much fun to see these kiddos start to try new things and want to be creative.  I also love how excited they are to finish with an awesome pumpkin and be so excited to see it lit up at night.

Hagen's Cub Scout Activities- October 2016

The Cub Scouts has had a lot of fun outings this month.

They were able to have a tour of the Orem history museum with Docent Campbell. He grew up in Orem, raised his family there and served in Vietnam. To hear the stories told from his perspective- not the media's- was pretty incredible. I hope Hagen and these boys remember it.

They were also able to go the the Fire Station Open House

Hee Haws- Oct. 6, 2016

Every year we have the opportunity to go to Hee Haws thanks to Amilyn, who sold my dad's houses.

We look forward to this every year.  It is nice that it's not too big and we love that fun activities.

Miscellaneous Pictures- October 2016

These three boys went to Joy school together and still are good friends and hang out together.  They are in the 5th grade now.

This picture was taken at a funeral on October 1st, for Hagen and Weston's teacher, Mrs. Hone, whose daughter had passed.

Sammy, Weston, and Hagen

 For the school carnival on October 3rd, the 5th and 6th graders had the opportunity to decorate a cake for the cake auction, themed after a favorite book.

Hagen loves Harry Potter so this is the decoration that we put on his cake.

Conference Weekend- Oct. 1-2nd, 2016

Conference weekend is a great time to just relax, listen to great messages, and spend time as a family.

These two couldn't help but fall asleep while listening to conference.

After listening to conference on Sunday we went for a ride through the Alpine Loop.

It was beautiful.  The leaves in the trees had changed colors and it was nice to get out into nature and experience it.

 It never fails, anytime we go for a drive most everyone falls asleep.

 Sid woke up just in time for a picture.

 Kaleigh was the only one that stayed awake the whole time.

Woodbury Art Museum- Sept. 24, 2016

You would never know it but their is a small art museum located right in the university mall.

Hagen needed to finish his "Art Explosion" project for webelos and the last thing he needed to do to complete this was to go to an art museum.

It was a cold and rainy morning so we hopped in the car and went to the "Woodbury Art Museum" and then walked around the mall.

The museum and selfie stations set up to take pictures reflecting different times.

 The kids couldn't believe that people would have carried a stereo on there shoulders.

 We put a nylon over the lens to get the old school picture look.

 The kids especially liked the 70's pad.

It was fun but now we are off to explore the mall.
