Fall and Halloween

Nothing like a big pile of leaves and a good book to read in the back yard on a lovely Fall day.

Fall means time for soccer.  Bump and Lee coached Corban and Peter's team again.


 Happy Halloween!  The kids had a costume parade at their elementary and Casi took pictures of the kids for me.  Sadly it's the only picture I have of Quincy in costume.

BYU Football!

Dave got us tickets for the BYU vs UCLA football game, so we drove down with Jared and Casi in September.  Bump's Mazda gets great gas mileage and so it was a quick, cheap trip.

On the way down we stopped at a gas station and ran into Kaylea and her fiancĂ© Kirby.  We had never met Kirby before so it was fun to get to meet him.  What a great surprise!

I finally got the chance to use my BYU nail stickers!  Gotta get in the right spirit!

 We had great tailgating food and watched other football games on tv while we waited for our game. Tracy and Steve, Steve and Sara, and Steve's brother John and his wife Molly joined us as well.



What a game!  BYU looked AMAZING and lead the game right up until the end and UCLA came back and beat us.  Dave was thrilled, but we were all very bummed!  Still super fun to be there!

Later in the season Jared was able to snag us some tickets for another game.  Bump took the kids and they had a great time!  Corban had more fun than the girls did (they just don't get it yet). After the game Corban got some of the players' signatures.

Ed and Jared needed to get in the picture!

Tanner Mangum had the best attitude with the kids.  He made each one feel so special.  He's a great quarterback and a really good kid.

Corban loves Nick Kurtz!

 He added more signatures to both his shirt and his ball at later games.  We love BYU football!

Fishing at Currant Creek

We went with the Hancock Family to Currant Creek Reservoir for a few days.  It was hot and the fishing was terrible, but it was fun to hang out with good friends.  Gabby caught the only large fish of the trip.  Ema caught one tiny one that she didn't even know she had on the line!  Levi brought his kayak and Corban thought it was wonderful to paddle around in it.
