Our First Family Turkey


I have become one of those crazy coupon shoppers. I was able to get everything in this picture (including the dishes) all for $5.00. So I decided that I couldn't pass up this deal and had to learn to cook a turkey. So now we have tons of turkey in our freezer.

The Funnest Day Ever

Today unexpectedly both Orrin and I had the day off of work so we decided to take advantage of it and go out and have some family fun. We first decide to go to one of our favorite places Usery Pass. We did all our favorite things...
1. played on the playground

2.had a picnic

There are my crazy boys posing for the camera. Lately Wes has been very annoyed with me taking pictures all the time and will now just turn away. So I will take any pose I can get from him.

3.and hiked our favorite mountain (really it's just a hill).

Wes did great he wanted to hike all by himself and got pretty far until he fell on a rock then wanted Daddy to carry him the rest of the way.

That night we decided to use our free passes to Fiddlesticks and go goofy golfing. Wesley had a blast throwing the ball into the holes and into the water. Orrin had to go fishing for it a few times. There also was a guy there that let us ride some rides for free. Don't let the picture fool you he later had fun on the rides. But my favorite part of the night was when Wes got his arm stuck in a whole on one of the picnic benches. It was really stuck but he thought it was the funniest thing.

Halloween Night

On Halloween Night we went trick-or-treating with the Adams side of the family. Wesley caught on to the whole idea really quick. He loved seeing all the dogs that people had out with them and had to pet each one. He definitely got sick of me taking tons of pictures and would just turn away so it was really hard to get a good picture of his costume. Orrin said that I was a little crazy with the camera so I guess I don't blame him. Here are some of the best.

Carving Pumpkins

We decided to carve a pumpkin this year with Wesley. I thought he would totally be into it and getting dirty but the whole time he just kept saying ewoo. We even got a picture of him saying it.
But he did have fun watching daddy carve the pumpkin with all his tools. We wouldn't let Wes have a knife so he got to hold some pliers.

There is our pumpkin all done "scary".
