Potty Trained

We are so prouf of our little Jayde, she is officially potty trained. Only diaper at night and nap time for now, but other than that she is doing great. Last night she was out ridding her bike and she told us "I am going to have an accident" only accident comes out at asctedent or something like that. We ran in and then she said, "oh accident is gone." But then a few minutes later she was going to have another accident and she went on the potty. What a cutie!

Face Painting Practice

Jayde is going to be a kitty cat for Halloween this year so we decided to test run the face painting - she loves it! After I had made her into a kitty cat, she took her run at painting her face.

Fall Color Ride

Last Saturday we decided to go for a drive east and see the fall colors. We ended up in Randolph, UT and then to Bear Lake and then to Logan. Colors were really pretty, not quite at their peak yet, but we had a fun drive. Finally out into the mountains. Jayde asked me the other day if we could go into the mountains. She loves what we love - the outdoors!

Herriman Fire - My Hero

Tom was on this fire, the Herriman Fire, in south Salt Lake City where several thousand people were evacuated from their homes and a total of 3 homes lost. He arrived with the rest of the crew on Sunday afternoon in the helicopter, landing in the neighborhood. A dozer was sitting there waiting to be told what to do, so Tom got the dozer and started making a fire line around the homes. Tom literally ran in front of the dozer telling him where to go trying to save the homes. He worked all afternoon Sunday and all through the night like this. He saved over 35 homes that night and was exhausted on Monday morning when he finally got a break.

This photo was taken by a friend of ours who lives in the area. Tom said the fire was biting their butts the entire night. But because my husband is so awesome, he saved all those homes. Later that week when some of the families were able to get back to their homes, they were brought over to Tom because they personally wanted to say thank you to him. He said one lady was crying hysterically. Made him feel good - like what he does really makes a difference. I proud of him!

Heber Valley Railroad

We went over Labor Day Weekend to Heber and road the Heber Valley Railroad with some friends from Idaho - Summer, Kevin and little Addie. Jayde and Addie really bonded and had a fun time - they are only 1 1/2 months apart from one another.

Girls Weekend

Ok girls, now you cannot say that I did not share my photos! This trip we went to Park City and had a blast.
