Halloween 2017

Grandbabies and Halloween...a match made in heaven. Ashley's kids got to go trick-or-treating at OPD. That's a tradition now. To make it more fun for everyone I sent Mendis with full size candy bars. He ran out and had to run down to Maverik to restock! Most of the kids had fun. Shay did until Ashley put her on Grandpa's lap for the picture!


Nope, she's not having it!
 How cute is Kallie! What a darling little unicorn. That's alot of poof.
Here's a great pic of Christina with some other teachers at her school for Halloween. Looks like alot of fun.
Hayden did a fantastic job with their trunk for a trunk or treat for their ward too. Looks like they had fun. This year I stayed home and prepared for a ton of trick or treaters since I was handing out full size candy bars at the house too. Nope we had an all time low of three plus the grands this year. No prob except we had lots of leftover chocolate to eat. Oh darn.

Cedar City Temple

This fall we were able to attend the Cedar City open house.
 Stacey and Terri had been working tirelessly the whole time to get ready and worked the entire open house. They were able to get all of us tickets together so we went up on NV Day to see it.
Love the details in this Temple. It was really beautiful. Loved the high ceilings and wonderful woodwork and windows.
Now that's a great group of Coopers!

Cooper's Speed Meet

The elementary school had a really fun speed meet. The kids from each grade level were timed as they ran to determine the fastest 4 boys and girls from each grade. Then those fastest kids got to go to the "Speed Meet". Four schools attended and it was held up at the high school here. Cooper was chosen as one of the boys from 1st grade. He ran in the individual race and the relay race as well. He took 2nd in the individual race and his relay team took 3rd overall.
It was really exciting to see those little kids race their little hearts out.
Cooper did so great. It looks like all his practicing paid off. He even got new shoes that he helped pay for. We are so proud of him!

Cedar Mountain

We decided we wanted to see Grandpa & Grandma Cooper and see the fall colors too. Grandpa is a real fan of fall colors so we were happy to oblige. So Saturday we hit the road during the first session of General Conference on Sunday so we could listen in the car on the way to Cedar City. Then  last minute we decided to take the back way and go through Gunison and Enterprise on the way for a change. It was a really fun drive but it cost us our schedule. We ended up 45 min late. We all went to lunch when we got there so Grandma didn't have to cook. After our lunch we went up the mountain but we went in Grandpa & Grandma's car. 
 We managed to listen to some of conference but not alot. The colors were so pretty. Well we really liked it until we went to North Carolina the next month and really saw some great leaves.
 I loved to see the reds mixed in with orange and yellow. It's my favorite! It was a lovely day and we were really glad we made the trip.
