                        Halloween

                  
                  
Halloween was a crazy rush we went to 2 trunk or treats and in the mad rush we forgot to get corey's picture.  He was a Football player.  Abbie was supposed to be an old Grandma she doesn't look real old though.  She used a wig our primary secretary made for a lip sync dance the Primary presidency had to do about a Grandma going down the mountain on her little ole lie he who.  ( I got to be the grandma and that is a story for another day.)  The kids got an extreme overdose of candy and sugar because we also went to the Care center and all the sweet old people there loaded them up with candy as well.  I am always glad to have Halloween done with. 

                         
Tyler was a Hunter and Jared made a great hunting dog.



Cole wanted to be Darth Maul for Halloween this year.  He was that last year also we googled Darth Maul on the internet to find a picture of what he looked like then we painted his face to look like Darth.  I don't know if I should worry that he is wanting to be a bad guy or not.
Hardcore Fisherman

Tyler has become the hardcore fisherman for our family and likes me to take him out to the Salt River and leave him there even  in the extreme cold.  He did decide he has his limits however after I took him and a friend on one freezing cold day in December and dropped him off (he begged to do this).  The wind was blowing and it was so cold I kept saying are you sure you want to do this.  I picked him up about a half hour later.  He and his friend were so cold that they didn't even get any fishing done .  They just sat there freezing and I felt really bad.  Tyler did not want me to tell about that experience so I will tell you he is one good fisherman and can tell the best fishing lie I mean story around.  He caught this fish on Great Grandpa Marchant's  in Peoa on the Weber River with his Uncle Kyle in the evening this was the biggest fish he caught that day.

   Pictures at Allred Flat

 
We went to Allred flat just south of Star Valley and took some pictures of the kids.  Boy was that an adventure.  we finally managed to get one of Lyndie were she wasn't balling or
picking her nose.  




Our House


   We Love Dad


Yes siree!

                          Body Art!

This picture is of some artwork Jared decided he needed to do on himself.  Don't get me wrong but being a mother of 6 kids makes me really appreciate "silence"  expect in the case when silence is followed by an awful gut feeling that someone is up to something.  I seem to have those moments often with Jared  hence the body art.  


Jared is crazy and lots of fun this picture is of Jared's Tiger face that I painted for him at the park.  I was asked to help paint faces for Cole's kindergarten for their field day.  Jared insisted on having his face painted as well.  

   

I Know this may not look safe but it is a great punishment to make your kid stand on the table legs  of a table for several hours.  I will say childrens services tend to frown on this for some odd reason.  Jared was entertaining us all with his balancing skills and we didn't have any major injuries from this experience amazingly enough.  The other pictures are just of Jared being Jared.  He makes the goofiest faces and its so hard to do a family picture with him and not have him do some quirky look.  Oh well we just decided not to try any more and just go with the goofy pictures.  It is not fun to have Jason as the photographer however, he doesn't know how to relax and laugh about it.  By the time we are done with family pictures Jason is fuming and I am sitting in the car vowing never to do it again.

Jared the Crazy Man!
