Apron Sewing


We are off track again. This time for 4 weeks. That's more than we had in the summer off. CRAZY! Last off track Hannah wanted to learn to sew, We started making these aprons with her friend Kristen. This off track we finished them. The girls sewed all the straight seems and I did the pocket, put in the ties. They both turned the ties too. They were a lot better at that than me. It must be the there small fingers. I think they turned out great. It was fun to make the aprons with them. I made myself one too. But you can't take a picture and be in a picture at the same time.

Our Fisher Men

The first three pictures are from Eric, Trever and their Dad's annual trip to Island Park. They go up every fall. I think it looks way to cold. The last two pictures are from Last Saturday when Eric and Josh went fishing up on the Weber River. This was Josh's first fish he caught fly fishing. That explains the big grin on his face in the last picture. He said it was the best fishing trip he has ever gone on. He loves it. Thank you Dad and Brother Clegg for helping him get this one in.

Trick or Treat

The kids went trick or treating tonight. Hannah was a crocodile. I took her and her friend Kristen and My niece Mikayla around our neighborhood. Auston started with us but Curt took him back after one road. Josh and Braden made their costumes themselves. I called them alien bobble heads. They went trick or treating with Camron and Josh's friend Micheal. They got to go by themselves this year with no parent. We made some rules and they got our whole neighborhood. WAY TO MUCH CANDY...But a lot of FUN!!!

Stupid Halloween Decorations

Braden told me about a month ago that we have stupid Halloween decorations and we need scary ones. So we made some grave stones to put in the yard and bought a couple of skeletons too. The kids had fun making the head stones. They made up the names to put on them. We had "You Go Here", "Manny Bones", "Hal O Ween" and "Hope and Dreams" (Sponge Bob joke) The kids set everything up today. They put out their pumpkins and some spider webs too. I think it turned out great. We already are making plans for next year and what we want to add to the scary yard.

Jack-O-Lanterns

Last night we made our Jack-O-Lanterns for family night. This is one of my favorite Holiday traditions. Eric does not like doing pumpkins. So we have this deal. I do the pumpkins for Halloween and he makes and decorates sugar cookies for Santa with the kids on Christmas Eve. Works out great. Although this year was not that bad doing pumpkins the boys did everything on theirs by themselves. I think they all turn our great. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!
