It's Fall

Well, it's been quite a while since we have added anything new to our blog. So lets get you all caught up on what's going on with us. Here is cute little Lance before he had his hair cut, his fo hawk was really long

This is Amanda on the first day of school, I think she is the most kind and beautiful 4th grader I've ever met.


This was David's first football game he is #29

I had a birthday in August and it was by far the strangest ever. Down on the corner of 400 south and 450 west is an empty lot, for the last few years they have tied goats there to eat the weeds. Well school had just gotten out and Aubree was walking down to pick up Amanda at South Elem. When Aubree called me in a panic because some girls had taken one of the goats and it was now on our front lawn... As I went outside 2 little girls were trying to get this goat to walk home with them, I said I knew where it should be and that I would take it back. They then insisted that they had found it and were taking it home because it didn't have a home, after much persuasion I took the goat by it's rope to take back to the vacant lot. The only problem was that I had just got off work and was still in my work clothes high heels and all not realizing how strong goats are I tried to take it back and was then in for the fight of my life. Just picture me in high heels attempting to pull this goat by a rope that was tied around it's neck, well he put up a great fight. I had cars stopping, kids asking if they could pet my goat and it pooping all over the place and some lady drove around the block 3 different times so she could take more pictures. In the end we got it tied up, I looked like I had been drug by a goat with only a few stickers in my toes because of course my shoes were open toed and spiked heels. So this is a picture of my new favorite friend the GOAT....
David standing on the sidelines again #29 and I promise he does play.
Craig and I also had the opportunity to attend his 25th class reunion, we had a great time. Not a really big turnout but had fun visiting with the people that were there. Pictured left to right back row is Mark Ashdown, Mark Esplin, Mike Smith, Eric Tait, Rick Brown, Craig Cardon, Shawn Hinton, Brantz Gentry, Byron Linford, Mark Drawe. Middle Cindy Ashdown, Donna Bulloch, Diane Esplin. Bottom Michelle Mason, Michelle Miller, Danette Matheson, Jill Bauer, Linda Prince, Dialea Shirley.
We also took a weekend and took David and his friends to the cabin where they spent the night then came home saturday afternoon notice no pictures. So the next weekend we took the girls and their friends and we have pictures, we also took Lance along with us what a fun time we
had . I'm so greatful that my girls have such great friends.
My dad's headstone was finally put into place we were very pleased with how it turned out.

I think this picture is funny because Craig reminds all of us that he hates the cat and the cat hates him, but every chance the cat gets he sleeps by him so me and the kids took a picture.


These are pictures of David waiting to get in his first Varsity football game, it was so much fun watching him play with the varsity.
