Evacuating the church...

(Thankfully, the weather was nice)

...because Cameron pulled the fire alarm

We had to wait for the firefighters to come turn off the alarm and check the building

Then we went back in and picked up where we left off.

Fall Trip

Sandra, Brittana, and Naomi came to Utah last weekend. Layne came from Logan, and Annett and the kids from Salina.

It's not a Fall trip to Utah without Gardner Village, and some entertainment from the witches.

Grandpa Rulon Cook is moving to Elko to live with Judy. He frequents Chuck-a-Rama so often that it has become his second home. He was sad to leave. This is with one of his favorite waitresses.

Hop Scotch

We went to visit Grandma on Mother's Day evening.

Makayla wanted to play hopscotch. She asked Grandpa to play with her and he refused. She asked Grandma to play with her and she was very willing to do so.

*Listen to Grandpa in the background telling Grandma how to play it and laughing at her. How often do you get to play HopScotch with your Great Grandma? Makayla had a great time.

Annual Egg Hunt @ Grandmas

Robin was telling us that Addie calls Grandma stokers house, "the Grandma with kids."

Unfortunatley there were not very many kids this year for the Easter egg hunt.

Miranda and Grandpa did a great job of hidding the 6 dozen + eggs in the front yard.

Addie, Kayden, Makayla and Cameron were the HUNTERS. Hopefully they found them all.

Cameron didn't really know what to do with them.

Soo excited to find that egg. It was in a tricky spot.

Robin, Corey, and Jack were there too. Along with Eileen, Kimberly, Sawyer, Heather, Andy, Clint, and Josh. We later ate hotdogs, salads and chips, and TOO much candy. We had a relaxing and fun time and the weather was decent.
