So Curtis and I decided we were bored one night and thus decided to be spontaneous We decided to take these doughnut shaped blow up tubes that we bought a while ago to play in the water and go sledding. Now see if you can tell from the picture where we decided to go.
If you guessed Beaver Mountain you would be very correct. I'm by the ski lift for little Beaver. We trudged over with our tubes all ready to go. The rope attached to my hand has the tube tied to it that is cut out of the picture and ice axe in my other hand I'm ready to go. It was such a blast and we both went way fast. In the end I decided to stop with my boots down and totally covered my face with snow; talk about a brain freeze! We hope to do it again soon, the only problem is by the time we got up at the bottom we both realized our tubes were flat and so we either have to fix them or try something else the next time.

Lamb
Ok, I posted about the boys wanting a lamb. Well, my father in-law and Curtis found one to buy and slaughter. They were so excited and of course I had to take pictures but WARNING THIS CONTAIN GRAPHIC IMAGES FOR THOSE OF THE FAINT OF HEART!
Of course the other little brothers had to help too. It was all very interesting and now we proudly have lamb to eat. And no more chasing random ones.

Ok, I know I have not updated this in a long while. We moved and so I have not succeeded in finding my camera yet. It also does not help that I started school and have been really busy. So just to catch up. We are house and dog sitting for the time and I'm taking four classes right now. My favorite one so far is the Kayaking one. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to have some water fun. Other than that nothing too exciting has happened.

So we went on a drive up the canyon with our friends and it was still so pretty up there even with all the colors gone completely now. It's not exactly my favorite time of the year. I like it more when it's early fall or there is snow covering everything.
And the sky was clear and a beautiful blue!
Here's Kate and Sam. They are such an awesome couple!
So the real reason we went up the canyon was to bag us some sheep. Mutton is one of my favorite meats! A good leg of lamb slow cooked in the dutch oven is a slice of heaven. They were going to die during the winter anyway so we grabbed the guns and went hunting! The big one is the mom and she was too smart. The moment they saw us they ran and never stopped. Its OK because we found out its illegal to shoot them and so they live another day to be killed by trucks or the cold or even a lucky mountain lion.

So I went to Twilight with all my sisters, mom, and other friends. Twilight actually turned out to be a good movie! And I got to have fun catching up with everyone!
Here's Natalie, her and I have known each other since we were babies because our moms are old highschool friends. I was so excited to catch up with her because I had not seen her for years.
And here is my mom with her friends Ruth, Gaylynn, Ruth and Wendy the bear (she represented the missing friend). Ruth is Natalie's mom.

Colors
I have to say, we love this season with all the changing leaves. We took a drive up in the mountains and got to see the beautiful colors.
The road we drove on.
