Thanksgiving

Last Sunday we decided to have waffles with peanut butter and powdered sugar, not to mention lots of syrup which Michael loves on everything especially his "Cinnamon toast crunch" cereal.
This was taken at Grandma and Grandpa Ray's house. I love Cole in this shot, look at his missing tooth and crossed eyes!

Kim said it was time to shave the beard so I went with the Elvis look.

Fence


Just some more pictures of our finished fence!

Fence











Courtney and I were out playing in the yard this evening so I thought I would take some pictures of the fence. I'm not sure why I started this project in October and finished it in November but it is done, other than staining it white in the spring. Thanks for your help Dad, Patrick, and Greg!

Haunted Hayride


Steve & Tama Wixson

Patrick, Kinsey, Camilla, Courtney & Kim


There is a place we try to go to every year that has a haunted hay ride and a haunted house/barn. We all did the haunted hay ride and then only a select few went in the haunted barn. The hayride was really good especially if you sit in the very back of the wagon like we did. There was a headless horseman (on a real horse!), chainsaw guys, trucks banging the back of the wagon chasing us and much more! It was very entertaining!
And by the way, this is a real man we are standing by! I'm not sure how tall he is!

Fall Projects

The final step in finishing our room addition project is to complete our fence. While my parents were visiting, my dad and I got a good start, now I need him to come back out and help me finish. We found a preying mantis hanging out on the new structure. (The top photo not the bottom, that's Camilla)

Kinsey and Patrick's Wedding

The wedding was a blast, we partied hard and it was fun to have all the family there especially mom and dad. Kim was the matron of honor and I was the best man so things were crazy, but luckily mom and dad helped relieve some of the stress.


Dad and I hit the jackpot when we found this plastic chain at Walmart, we thought we should do a ball and chain but we didn't have any balls. Dad found some Nerf balls and painted them black, it was a huge hit!



Kinsey and Patrick's Wedding

Kinsey and Patrick got married at the White River Gardens at the Indianapolis Zoo. It was such a beautiful place and the weather was perfect. Doesn't Grandma Clark look stunning next to her granddaughters.

Back To School

Courtney has entered middle school so she gets her very own locker! She had fun decorating her locker, she even had me put carpet in it.
My girls are growing up too fast. Camilla is in the second grade and Courtney is in the sixth.
Kim and I surprised the girls with a new trampoline, we just got it put up right before the bus came.

July Fun

This was at a pizza place in Lexington, KY we were acting surprised for some odd reason.

Summer Fun






Having fun with Kinsey and Patrick!












I've been helping with Stake Girl's Camp for several years now. It is such a great experience for young girls in the church who live in an area that is not saturated by members. The last few years I have been assisant to Lorrie Monn who has directed the camp for 9 years. This was her last year as The Lafayette Stake Girl's Camp Director. She is ready to start some new endeavors in her life. I just hope she knows what a difference she made in the lives of so many young women. The only thing she ever hoped to accomplish while serving as camp director was to help the girls have an experience that would strengthen and help them gain a personal testimony of their Savior, Jesus Christ. I think every year she accomplished that! She is an amazing woman. Lorrie, thanks for such wonderful memories that I will always cherish!

Storms in Indiana

We've had some pretty bad weather here in Indiana. My Grandma and Grandpa Ray had a huge tree fall on the back of their house that caved in their whole back porch. We had a big tree fall down right behind our property in the back yard, and we had our neighbors (The Allen's) trampoline end up in our tree in the front yard. The neighbors were watching the the storm from their front window and saw the Allen's trampoline go over the top of their neighbors house and ended up in our front yard tree. It was pretty crazy! I've experienced storms like this since I was a kid, but still is a little scary and fascinating when it happens. Michael goes crazy! This is a picture of Kent and Michael pretending to hold up the tree that
fell at Grandma and Grandpa's House. What strong muscles!
