Fun in the Leaves!

My favorite part of Fall is playing in the leaves. We have a big back yard at my parents house,& it's great to rake a big pile & get buried in it, jump in it and best of all, get thrown in it!

Fall leaves, I love the smell, the feel and the crunchy sound!
Me and my girls! A Ray Monster! AAAH!
Bekah
Weston
Ellie

The best part is being thrown in! 1st you have to rake a BIG pile, My Dad and Uncle used to throw us in, now my brother, Tyler has taken over, & the kids LOVE IT!

Here's Ellie, this one jarred her a bit, we needed a bigger pile!
Mia said it was fun, but that's not what her face says!
Bekah loves it of course.

Again, and again!

Fall Soccer!

Bekah and Ellie played soccer this fall.

They both had a great time and learn a lot.

Bekah #7 played 7 on 7 this year, she really liked to play mid-field or defense.

She was a little go getter until she would get tired. This was the 1st year that she had to run up and down the whole soccer field.
GO TIGERS!

Ellie got to play co-ed soccer this year, and really liked her coach.

He did a great job of letting the kids play every position.

She really liked the oranges and drinks they got for 1/2 time too.

She realized that she is a great mid-fielder,

but she still liked to play defense.

Last year she loved playing goaly, but not this year!

Her team was called the Cannon Balls, and by the end of the season they were really playing great together!

Ellie and Jacob made a great defense team.

She said "Jacob is so cool, and he is really nice & really fast!"
When I asked her if she had a crush on him she said "No Mom! I don't like him like that"

Ellie's 11th Birthday!

Trip to the Zoo!

For part of Ellie's birthday, she wanted to go to the zoo!

So I took the kids out of school for the day, and we went with the Berg cousins.

It was a nice day, and we had a lot of fun!

Most of the cousins by the big ape.

Ellie and her little cousins Sydney and Brieanna
For part of Ellie's present was a date with her Dad. She was very excited about it and took a while getting ready. She wore her new dress, and looked so much like a young lady it scared me. They went to Szechwan in Park City. Which was not fair, because he hasn't even taken me to eat there yet!

Ray's 1st Field Trip!

Ray's preschool class went on a field trip to the fire station. Ray thought it was fun to try on the fireman's hat and coat,
Get to squirt the fire hose,
and show his big fireman muscles.
All the kids learned a lot about being safe around fire.

Remember: STOP, DROP, and ROLL!

Happy Birthday! Grandma Berg!

My Mom had her 20th birthday for the 3rd time last week. So on Sunday we all got together at my brother's house and had dinner(that she didn't have to fix) and her favorite Choc. cake from Costco and her favorite Farr's Choc chip ice cream. She got some fun presents. My Dad got her roses and a 2 1/2 week trip to Switzerland to see one of her newest grand babies. She and my Dad left today. I hope you have a great trip Mom. We LOVE YOU!

Grandma Berg's 3rd~20th Birthday

Mudpies, Peaches, and a Fashion Show!

Mud Pies

One day last week the kids were playing outside, after awhile

I noticed it was to quite so I went outside to check on them, and this is what I found.

Weston's double layer mud cake.

Ray's mud pudding with green leaves.

Bekah's 2 mud pies with leaves for decoration.

The mess wasn't too bad,

but I wonder if they had more fun washing off the deck

with the hose or making the mess.

Peaches

Mandy cutting the peaches to fit in the bottles.

Mom, checking the peaches in the canners.

Peaches that are ready to be processed and some that are done.
I love how pretty they look in the jars.

Fashion Show

Yesterday, Bekah was invited to her cousin's dress-up birthday party.

It was a lot of fun. They got to decorate their own dress ups.

Then have a fashion show for their parents
