Wax Museum/Reflections/Springville Art museum

The weather recently has been SOOOO beautiful! I am not ready for 30's. 

I went to UVU Graduation meeting with Lucy and Liv (Olivia Carrol) the other night. They were doodling. Liv's is on top and Lucy's on bottom.

Mary's elephant is (not surprisingly) headed to State for Reflections. 

Karla Froelich gets the best coupons for her winners!

The newest vehicle for our parking garage...just kidding. We have a lot of vehicles though. 2010 Honda Odyssey. This is what Mary will be driving. Joe has already fixed the things that needed fixing. He has saved us so much money on car repairs. We got this for 2500. So thankful. Brigham's car is almost done. He interviewed with Deseret Meat this week and is still delivering pizzas.

Marjorie was Pocahontas in her wax museum this week. She did a fabulous job. She spoke loud and clear. She also had call backs for Finding Nemo, which will be in March.

Our YW painted Books of Mormon this week. It was so cool! The girls did an awesome job. I had to go to an area training and didn't get to do one yet.

Yesterday we got to go to the Springville Art Museum to see Marjorie's painting that was selected to be part of their Inspiration show. 

These are 2 of my art student's, very hard to tell apart. Rosie's beautiful bird was included as well and she got an additional award too.

After the museum I picked up Jenny Fowler and we hurried up to Kyhv Peak, behind Provo Temple.

It had just rained so the trail was a muddy mess, but we had a great time and enjoyed it very much.

 Still very beautiful. Sad I didn't make it up there in full Fall. I could tell it was amazing. 

I went to Ogden on Friday because Heidi (Olsen's) Dad got us a booth at the Marriot-Slaterville Boutique to sell our art. It was totally lame for business but fun to be with Heidi. Bill and Erin Hansen came over on his lunch break. My mom and Shan came by and I got to eat with my mom before coming home. I also got to pass on some clothes to Mindi Lima for refugee's she is helping.

This week is Thanksgiving already and Heber's birthday. Time is FLYING by. We had David and Brooklyn Madsen and their 2 littles over for dinner tonight. It was fun getting to know them better. The kids loved having little kids over here too.

Reflection Winners and Sadie's for Lucy

Our Thanksgiving Tree. Fran spent some time at home this week sick. 

Sarah got a new dress.

Brigham got to see lots of his mission friends and his first mission President (Anderson) and his wife at his friend Jace Lowder's homecoming.

Frannie drew this for Joe.

I finished this watercolor of Mt. Timpanogas Temple for my friend Lindsey.

Mary had her band awards, they gave out a bunch of spoof awards. She was annoyed to receive this since she made a point of wearing BYU attire to every practice again.

I am not sure they know how much time and effort she put into this past band season but she deserves an award for all she did.

Heber received an honorable mention for his painting for Reflections. The Theme was I am hopeful because...

Mary submitted her elephant drawing and it is moving on. Marjorie and Frannie are both moving onto the next level as well.

It is fun seeing Grandpa's picture in the hall every year during this month. Thankful for him and all Veteran's and their families.

For YW we made our own pizza's, it was fun!

Lucy took Jake to a date her softball team planned in place of Sadie's, since they were playing ball during ours.

Liv Carrol, Jack Fowler (Allie's little brother), Lucy, Jake, Jake's neighbor ?, Alyce Archuletta

They had a really fun night. They all ended up at the Tibbals home. Alyce in front, Liv, Allie, Addi Drake, Brooklyn Zajac, Addie Duke, Lydia Tibbals, Ashlyn, and Lucy.

Brigham and I have been enjoying weekly temple dates the past 2 weeks. He is waiting to hear from the meat plant, I am guessing this time is really limited.

Heber loves every box he can get a hold of. This is his port a potty.

Frannie's drawings. She is writing so well, most of this all by herself not even asking spelling sometimes.

Today we went to my parent's and celebrated Heber so we don't have to on Thanksgiving. He loved the attention and we enjoyed a yummy dinner. He chose cheetos mac and cheese. We had cheeseburgers and broccoli salad too. And of course several yummy desserts.

Money from Gma Great. Thanks Grandma!

He is having so much fun with this tonight! My parent's gave him something from his wishlist.

The kids ran in to get us to see the sunset. Brady texted Shan a picture of it too. We have trained them well! ;)

 

Joe and Brigham are making lots of progress on his car. I am guessing it will be running soon. The interior is all done and it is amazing.
