Party at Grandma's

My mom makes dinner and has a Halloween party every year. Last night we celebrated Grandma Robbins 86 birthday too. Here are all of the cousins and Kevin. I was a scary witch.

I took these at our house before we left.

Batman

On Wednesdays my mom, sisters, Kevin and I try to go to lunch. Today at lunch Grandma painted a bat on Koda's cheek (because he is obsessed with super heros and batman is at the top of his list) we didn't have a mirror to show him so I took a picture. It was even better than a mirror he has looked at the picture several times today, the bat came off durring his nap.

Trevor got his wolf badge

Tonight Trevor got his wolf badge at pack meeting. I'm new to all of this scout stuff, but I am proud of Trevor for being motivated and working hard.
Trevor wanted me to make the paw look like there were scratches, I did my best with a Q tip.
Trevor drew the "milk the cow cheer". He is "milking" my thumbs.
The boys are sapposed to pin the parent pin on the parent, I did alot of helping.








Way to go Trev!

Deegan's Birthday Party

My nephew Deegan had a birthday party at Classic on monday here are some pictures of the boys.

Koda is a super hero. He doesn't have a secret identity, he doesn't care who knows.

We love Uncle Kevin!
Trevor
Bodie
Amy made hamburger cup cakes! What a nice mom!

Corn Belly's

We went to Corn Belly's today at Thanksgiving Point. I was fun. All of the Clarke cousins were there Grandma, Amy and Melanie came too.
The Creature
Princess Koda

I want this little house for my back yard but I bet we couldn't keep it pink

Koda fixed the scanner

As most two year olds, Koda likes to be where I am. A few days ago I was sitting at the desk in front of the computer with Koda on my lap. I, of course, was into what ever I was doing and wasn't paying attention when he opened the front of the printer and pulled out whatever would come out. He "fixed" it, what a good helper!
Any way the boys brought their school pictures home yesterday and I wanted to scan them so you could all see but my printer/scanner doesn't do anything. So, sorry no pictures today.

Does anyone have a scanner I can use?

10 Years!

This year Clayton and I will be married 10 years! I have meaning to do my first post for a long time but now I have a good reason.

In 1997 at the end of both of our missions in Arizona Clayton was transferred to Mesa and I got a new district leader. We had never met before, but I thought he was a nice guy. He baptised a guy we taught for a singles ward we were serving in. Here is a picture of Clayton and Jose. (Sorry Clayton, remember that jumpsuit was a little snug?)
So Clayton went home after just a month of being my district leader. And we wrote each other for one month until I got home. We were just friends but started hanging out when I got home. We did fun things burn our socks when there was a full moon for good luck. (I guess it worked!)

Here we are fishing (We haven't fished again)
Clayton was working nights at UPS and I would sometimes bring him dinner so we could see each other. I brought him dinner one night and was late so I was trying to get him to hurry and eat. He started to chock on his drink then said "Look what was in my drink" he held out his hand and there was my ring! and he said to me "will you be my wife" I was so surprised! But I said yes.

Now it has been 10 years. It hasn't always been easy but I really love my husband and am glad he gave me my 3 little boys. Thanks Clayton, happy anniversary.
