Thankgiving!! Birthdays for Caitlin and Rachel!!!

This year we only had three of our children
home for thanksgiving. So we wanted to have
a place that we could be outside and roast
marshmellows. Dad and I put this fire ring to-
gether. Pretty Cool! Of course on Thanksgiving morning in the rain
soaked ground the boys, Jake, Ben and Sam went
up to Butler and played football. Sorry the pictures
were not better. But the guys had a great time.
Dad and the boys helped but the stepping stones
around the fire pit so we would not be standing in
the mud. Thanks guys for all the help!!


Isaac helped by picking up the little rocks around
the yard.

Happy Birthday Caitlin and Rachel. It was delicious!!

Emily as usual found a hat to put on.

On saturday we all went out shotgun shooting.
We put ear headphones on the grandkids to protect
their ears. A little big on them but they did the job.

Jake and Deanne and below is Jake and Ben.

Ben and Caitlin!
Sorry about the blur.

Dad went fishing and shotguning this past Sat. We hope everyone had a fun and happy Thanksgiving. We missed Nathan, Lori, Katie, Kevin and Ryley, Ben and Olivia. We love all of you and hope that we can ALL get together again soon. Love Mom and Dad

We hope you had a great day, even though you were
trying to get ready to move, again, and being pregnant
added to all the fun we hope you had. We miss you

with you. We love you so much and are so very proud
of you. Here are some looks back down memory lane.
We hope you enjoy them. Love Mom and Dad

Ben has always like jumping around and getting into
things since he was little.
Was not happy with what I tried to feed him.
Loved to build things even at a young age!
His first motorcycle or close to it.
Exploring the rocks and the water at Lake Powell.
All moms have a picture like this of their little boy.
Ben loved playing in boxes.
Nothing more fun than playing in the rain water.
Who would have guessed this little soldier would
become a real one some day.
He has always been full of energy and still is.
We love you bunches Ben. Mom and Dad.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Happy Halloween!! My visiting teachers came
by and shared a little message that is so good I
wanted to share it with all of you and then you
can share it with you children. It is about Christians
and Halloween.
Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. Our Heavenly
Father lifts up up, takes us in and washes all the dirt off.
He opens us up, touches us deep inside and scoops all the
yucky stuff our (like seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc.) Then
He carves us a new smile and puts His light inside of us to
shine for all the world to see. (Matthew 5:14-16)
We can let ur light shine by being a good example. When we
keep the commandments we are showing others our love for
Heavenly Father, and they will have a desire to honor Him as
well. We should follow Jesus. If we do, we will be able to live
happy lives and return to Heavenly Father someday.
I hope you like this and I have shown some of the past Halloween's
that my children had. I hope you enjoy!







As you can see we had some great times and lots
of different and re-used costumes. I hope everyone
has a fun and Happy Halloween!! Love Mom and Dad/
Grandma and Grandpa Miller........
