Emma was a HSM Cheerleader/Zombie Cheerleader and Sam was a Power Ranger. Notice Sam with the dark hair….doesn’t look like our Sam that is for sure! Doesn’t Andy look hot in his red jacket! Thanks to the Browns for coming over and sharing cinnamon rolls with us!


Oh, this poor kid. He gets a little scared on a ride and now the whole Internet knows. The joy of technology.
Thanks, Boyd, for the heads up.
Carved pumpkins tonight for FHE. The girls opted for sissy time, while the boys opted for creepy. As we say in Cache Valley, “Injoy yer Helloween, feller.”

Thanks to Natalie and Boyd for putting on a great FHE. From the game to the food, it was good times all around. Those that dressed up really added spice to the whole affair. Thanks! It was great seeing you all!






We will be thinking of all of you in your costumes out having fun. Be safe and have lots of fun and candy. Remember to eat a Snickers and some chili for me. Love you all so much.
Hey, with Tonya popping a kid out any day now….we are all going to have to help out a little with the Fossil’s house. Just a couple reminders that will help Tonya help the Fossil’s keep their house in one piece. Before you leave…no matter how long you stayed…please be sure to check the following…
*The garbages are empty (it can get kinda stinky if they aren’t)
*The heat is turned down to 60 (we’ve all got to do what we can for the environment)
*All window’s are closed (I know you stunk up the bathroom and wanted to air it out…THANK YOU…but now please close the window so the snow doesn’t get in the house :-) )
*The water in the Laundry room has been turned off
*All doors are locked (we gotta protect all those clocks the fossils have purchased over the years)
*Leave with a smile…hope you enjoyed your stay at Hotel Fossil
The house looks awesome and is in great shape…thanks for helping to keep it standing….only 4 months left and then our cook, slave, housekeeper, room-service provider will be back….and she’ll bring her husband too! :-)
Check out the new Jib Jab movie starring yours truly.
Okay, I thought I might as well put some pictures from our Chicago trip on here as well. It was way fun. I told our friends last minute, like two or three days before leaving and they said, “we’ll come”. It was great to have them.

Well, the Leanards have been very good kids. They love saying prayers and reading their scriptures each night and even say our cheer with us. They are all very good readers. Each have a good testimony. We had a regional conference on Sunday and they were very well behaved. Kaden didn’t have his scriptures and as we pulled into the parking lot said, “it feels weird not having my scriptures.” It was very precious. Tonight we carved pumpkins. Each got to pick out their own pumpkin, from a real pumpkin patch, and then drew their face for me to carve. Kaden and Alex carved their own and did an awesome job. The hole time Alex was carving hers, Kaden was right there coaching. It was fun. Anyway, there are some photos on Flickr.com Sorry if this link doesn’t work.

Well just to let you know we ended the season with 3 wins, 3 ties and 1 loss. It has been great to have Chase enjoy this sport so much. He’s a fun kid and is a joy to have in our family!!
