On our way to Utah we stopped in St. George to see Grandma Fuhriman. We had dinner with her and stayed over night. That was really nice! We love visiting with her and it was also nice to break up the drive a bit.
While in Utah we had some fun adventures. The kids LOVE playing outside at the farm and helping grandpa with the chores.
Tyson went to the auction with his dad and grandpa to sell some animals. He came home with a rabbit!
Hunter had some quality girl time with aunt Brielle. We went with her to teach dance one night. She did her hair for her and got to wear her dresses!
Hurley took lots of naps in the car!
Thanksgiving was spent at the Cobbleys in Mantua with the Jensens. It was fun. The kids got Brielle, Grandma, and Jaylin to slide down the stairs! We played "Things" that is always a fun one, especially with the Jensens! Read stories, Played video games, and made a plan for BLACK FRIDAY shopping. I did NOT participate. I get kid duty. Gladly! Maybe when my kids are older I will THINK about going, but I enjoy my sleep! The next night we had Thanksgiving with the Roylance side. Its always a nice visit!
The annual Lamb Harvest took place the weekend of Thanksgiving which was a BIG part of the reason we went to Utah. Tyson got to participate in that while the kids had fun playing outside and going with Jaden on motorcycle rides. I went to my sister Ryans house in Malad with my 4 siblings as we went through my Dads things. I am SO MAD that I didn't get a picture of the 4 of us together. We hardly ever are together all at once and it could be a LONG time till it happens again.
We went to Willard Bay and drove through the lights and sat on Santas lap!
Tyson cleaned up the pasture for his dad, he got grandpa Jensen to help. They removed an old sugarbeat elevator that a tree had grown through. They hauld off almost 1.5 tons of scrap metal.
We hung out at Grandma T's house and read stories under the "Hut".
Jaden turned 16 and was ordained. He asked Tyson to do the ordination. That was really special for Tyson! (He told me he choked up! How cute is that!?)
We spent a day at the Treehouse museum in Ogden. Most of which was spent at the train station. Hurley has an unconditional love for the things! He literally was there for almost the entire 5 hours! I got him to break away a couple times but he always fought it and went right back! Huxley pulled himself to standing for the first time!
Tyson and I kinda got to go on a date! We took Huxley and went Christmas shopping for the day while our moms watched the other 2. It was fun. We need to go out more often but we never do. I feel bad pawning my kids off when I have 3 and the people we trade with usually only have 1! I think it is important for couples to go out without kids and I always said I was going to do it. But we never do. We can't afford it. Maybe we should make it a goal for next year?!
