October 2011

Jackson liked drawing on the face.

Trying out grandpa's motocycle.
such cute girls!

Jackson loved going to see the progress on our neighbor's train exhibit.  He likes to pull the horn.
Jamie and Dave came to visit the first part of October.  Jamie ran in a Half Marathon in Park City and we got the tend the kids.  It was fun to do a little Halloween fun with them since we wont see them for the actual day.

September 2011

I got out some play dough for the kids while Mary Ann and Kacey helped Jamie organize one afternoon.
Dave got a job!!  He is working for US AirWays in Tempe AZ. He is an analyst for the airlines, analyzing the feasibility of putting in a call center or something like that.  They love the benefits like free flying, health care and retirement, etc.  Dave moved down the last part of Aug and found a house for them to rent.  He flew back and they loaded everything up in a large moving  van.   I decided to drive down with Jamie to help with the kids and driving.  We had a great trip except the delay at Hoover Dam.  Jackson and Hallie were so good in the car. We were so blessed because Tyler and Kacey had a dinner ready for us when we got to Mesa.  It was especially fun because Ryan, Mary Ann and their 2 kids were there also.  Ryan just happened to be working in Phoenix that week so Mary Ann came to visit a friend. 
Walking along the Tempe Beach one evening.  How fun to be with six of the 7 grandkids!


The only family that didn't move this summer was Ryan and Mary Ann.  They did come to Utah and I got to help tend Dayton and Afton.  We went out to our garden and picked one of the large pumpkins and then Dayton got to paint a face on it.
