MIRROR LAKE

Mrror Lake

We decided to take a drive and head up into the mountains. We ended up at Mirror Lake. On the drive Ethan kept saying that he wanted to go up in the mountains. We tried to tell him that we were, but he just kept on asking. The weather was nice and cool. It started to thunder and lightning after awhile. We got back to the truck just after it started to rain a little. Ethan was asking if he could take some pictures. I had to delete a few because I don't really care what the roof of the truck looks like. He did take some good pictures though.


Here is a picture of the boys sitting on a tree by the lake. After we were walking for awhile, there were pine cones that kept falling out of one tree. Or so I thought. I looked up and there in that tree was a squirrel. It kept throwing pine cones off the tree. It was so funny. The boys got a kick out of it.
Ethan took this lovely picture of us by the lake. Not bad for a three year old huh? I think he did pretty good with this one.
After the Lake we decided to go see Provo River Falls. On the way Caleb was really tired. We tried to keep him away so that he could see the falls. I got it on our camcorder him falling asleep with a Cheetos in his mouth. We kept calling his name so he would wake up. We didn't want him to miss the Falls as they are so amazing. Almost as soon as we got to the falls the rain started to fall down on us. We got down to the falls took a picture and ran back up to the truck. Then it started to down pore. Caleb wouldn't go back to sleep in the truck after that.

Being silly

SILLY SILLY

Caleb chilling out in a chair watching cartoons. Isn't he the biggest ham? Ethan trying to hide the fact that he is eating chips for breakfast. He loves to hide things and play little games like that. And this is a picture of me so I could show my sister how much I've changed since I saw her last. (Hi Jodie!) Any way we are just doing are thing in the morning time and have a good old day. I'm really excited for tonight because I get to pamper my Mom! We are going to have a good night with all the Mary Kay women at the studio getting facials, eyebrow wax and Olive Garden for dinner. Yea for us! I'm really excited since it has started getting cooler over the past few days and can hardly wait for the kids to get out and play in the snow! This family loves the snow. I said that already didn't I? I just thought I would say that again. I think the best part is sitting by the fire with hot cocoa. YUM! I don't really like to freeze. I'm also excited for Thanksgiving this year, because my whole family will be together in Wallsburg. Thanks to everyone for being so supportive!

Having fun

Ryan has been fixing the boat trailer and they boys wanted to say with him. Ryan set up a nice little bed in the boat for them to lay in. They have had so much fun playing in the boat! Good thinking Daddy! This way they can stay with Ryan and not get in all of his tools. Ethan and Caleb LOVE to play in the garage with Daddy's tools. Ryan doesn't like it so much because they make a mess. Plus the get all dirty and bring it in the house! The bath tub gets that ring of dirt around it. They are very active boys and I love them. If they weren't dirty would they really be having that much fun?
We are looking forward to the fall and most importantly the snow. For this Holt family loves to be out in it. Ethan and Caleb are all ready asking Ryan when they can go on the snowmobile. We have also be trying to do some winter clothes shopping to get them ready. They truly love to be outside and with their Dad.
We have also seen some of the Halloween costumes out. They boys have to ask me about everything. Ethan is now asking "why" all the time. Sometime I just have to end by saying, just because. They are such a joy to have around. I love my family!
