Labor Day Weekend!

This Labor Day weekend was a little different for me... There was no fair, or rodeo... just a little of this and that. Saturday night we had a family reunion up at Duck Creek. All the Forsyth side of the family went up there for camping, four wheeling, hunting and an awesome dutch oven dinner! It was delicious! We all just hung out and enjoyed the nice weather! There was a tree that was leaning enough that the top of it was touching the ground, so we had competitions to see who could walk across it first with out falling. The boys struggled a little bit but by the 5th or 6th time they finally made it across. Then I went... yes I made it on my first try! Tony was mad that I was better than him at something! :) Well Sunday we all hung out and had a delicious dinner made by Naomi. Then we went to Parowan that night and just hung out with my family. Monday morning we went back to Parowan for the Parade.. it was fun to see.. but kinda long! I was just glad I talked Tony into going! Then after that we went home and had a BBQ and rode four wheelers in the fields behind our house! Justin finally got my Dad's four wheeler running so it was fun to go ride with Justin on it! Brought back memories of riding behind my Dad! Justin is just as crazy as he was! My Mom even got on it and raced again! It was fun to see her out riding again! It has been awhile! Well Justin had to head back to Logan after dinner ... so we just hung out for a little longer and then came back to our humble abode! Happy Labor Day!

My family all out riding!

Tony & I at the Labor Day Parade!

Eclair's

I just had to post that I made something from SCRATCH and I didn't ruin it! (it probably only worked because Tony helped.. but still) Tony has been bugging me for months to make him some eclair's they are one of his most favorite desserts ever... well we finally decided to make them. All from scratch! Even the frosting! ha ha the first batch we did ended up being little baby eclair's.. so we did a second batch and they were normal size.. now I just hope they taste as good as they look!

Baby Plant....

This is my new "baby" plant! So Tony has told me the whole time we have been married that before we can ever have kids I have to 1- grow a plant and have it live! 2- have a fish...that lives. 3- Get a dog,(Tony just really wants a dog) and keep it alive and in shape! And after I can accomplish these things THEN we can talk about having children. So I decided the other night that if I have to go through this list of things BEFORE we can even THINK about having kids, that I better get started! Especially if I have to keep them all alive! :) So we went to Wal-mart the other night and picked out a plant, pot and soil! We came home and planted our "baby" plant... now Tony says it is my job to keep it alive! We have had it for a week now and it is still alive! :) I think it might even been growing! ha ha so I guess wish me luck! Maybe someday soon I will have a little fishy!

Loves!

Tony started working at Loves in the Tire Shop last April. He has loved every minute of being there. He was with all of his friends, working outside, and working with his hands! All things that he enjoys! Well although he has loved it there, it is going to be a tough semester in school this year, and our brother in law Trevor found him a job at SUU working in the HVAC department with him! So he has decided to take it! Today was his last day working for Loves! I am sure he will miss his good times messing around with the guys, his FREE COKE!, and many more things but he is moving on, and hopefully this means that he will be a college graduate sometime in the near future! :) Love you Tony! Good Luck at SUU-HVAC!

The Tire Shop!

Tony! Enjoying his coke and good friends!

Welcome Home Elder Call!

Justin came home from his mission in Santiago, Chille on August 16th! We were all super excited to get to finally see him after his two years of service to the Lord! He was supposed to be flying into the Cedar City Airport at 4:12 p.m. so we had all of our family and friends there waiting with signs and smiles to meet him! The little kids had their noses poked up against the glass watching the plane land and everything. My Mom was standing in the back ground like a nervous nelly! ha ha Well the plan landed, unloaded and closed up.. and no Justin! He had missed his flight! Well we talked to the Delta people and after a long run around we found out he got on the next flight into St. George. So we all hurried and drove down there as fast as we could! Well flying is faster than driving and he ended up beating us to the airport... he got off the plane and no one was there to greet him! We made it a few minutes later and were all very happy and excited to see him!! Well come to find out his baggage was lost so we were sitting there for about an hour trying to track it down! After that we were all starving so we went and ate at In-N-Out! One of our families favorites! Well Justin was only here for a week before leaving for Logan to start school again up at Utah State. So we had a fun filled week! We had a family BBQ with good ol "american" food! :) Justin got Dad's fourwheeler out and running! We went down to the temple and did sealings with our family! We went out to the Lake to wakeboard and wake surf! And we all just hung out and enjoyed our time together! Sunday we had all of our family and friends come up for a breakfast, then we all went to sacrament and listened to his homecoming talk! He did great! And his spanish is amazing! After that we had one last family dinner and sent him away for school! It was fun to have him home for a few days! I am just glad I can talk to him whenever I want to now! :)

Everyone waiting for the plane to land in Cedar!

The plane he was SUPPOSED to be on!

Elder Call is home! We finally saw him in St. George... don't worry he was waiting for US!

Our family in St. George! We finally found him!
