Janis and Greg's place

I love this picture, there is something about leather boots and good looking jeans on guys that I love! I think it is the farm girl in me.
Greg slaving away, while Tucker had a blast entertaining his nephew Troy.
Troy loves him some volley ball!

Saturday, Tucker flew in at noon and we headed up to Ogden to see his sister and her family. Greg her husband always has amazing food prepared to fill our tummies. This time he made carne asada tacos. They were AMAZING! The little guy is Troy, he is one of my favorite little people around.

Sunday Dinner at Grama's




Sunday Dinner at Grama's was one of the funnest yet yesterday. We had almost the whole Stewart Clan, some Wrights, some Becars and some Vials and friends. We hung out all night having a blast with Ashley and Jarom's little guy Cannon. Then Tucker taught me how to do a rubics cube. I am still not very good at it, but at least I'm not just turning it without any set plan now.

Halloween, Corpses Bride





Tucker and I dressed up as the corpses bride, Mom and Grandma had fun helping out. This is Grandma's Wedding Dress I am wearing. She was such a sweet heart to let me wear it, though I did worry about it most of the night, I think I took pretty good care of it.

GO BLACKACRE BLITZ 2/58

Mags and I taken a little off guard, funny that we both had our hands out our chins, must be a law school thing.
I feel pretty honored in this photo. These two girls are why we are number 2 out of 58 teams this year. We haven't lost a game and it is mostly due to the fact that these two girls sacrifice their time in Professional Responsibility Class to strategize how we will kill the team we are about to play.
We went and got hot chocolate and gelato at mystros
Lisa and Jordan on defence, Soph on the line with me and Mags, everywhere we want her to be at all the right times!
Nik is our quarterback, Marie is usually our center/receiver
Marie and Brandon, B is our "coach". Though really he just comes to help Marie look even better than she already does.
Kel is so hard core that she played despite having gotton a tracheotomy the weekend before. Now that is HARD CORE!
Nice form!
A little tumble, I think this might not have been very pleasent for Nat. sorry friend.
The team!
A little prep work before the game. There is always a scramble for our student cards.
Soph, looking relaxed and keeping it real before the game.
Marie, just doing a little touch up before she goes and smears the other teams faces in the ground.



So yes, we have played our last game of the season before the tournament. We start in the tournament next week. We have seen our Rankings. We are ranked # 2 out of 58 teams, that puts us just below the team who has won for years. I just got butterflies as I write this. I really want to beat that team! We know we are good. We went and scouted out a few other teams who are ranked just below us and we know we can beat them, but really we haven't played any team who could even remotely compete with us, so we are going to have to play it really cool headed once we meet our match.

Maybe I am getting a little too into this sport, but with a team like the Blackacre Blitz who wouldn't!

Gondolla's and Mt. Killington


Three very Brave family members! Made it to the top and down in the Gondila without fainting from fear!
A view of the Mountain from the road going up.
Awesome shot from the top. Anders loves showing


Cool Anders! He is such a great hiker!
Anders got really into acting like he was driving a car while we were taking a picture. He was pretty proud of himself to getting over his fear. I was really proud of all of them. Maddy was super cute, screaming and holding onto the outside door as we tried to step onto the Gondila, then she was able to chill out and take deep breaths for the rest of the trip.
I was studying in bed this morning and Maddi came up to give me a break.
My favorite covered bridge.
I was bummbed about the sun in this one. But it was too cute of both of them not to post.
It was a beautiful view all the way up!

Picking Apples and Petting Zoo, Chilin



Chelle took these shots of me and the Kids. I had so much fun playing with them!


We ate soo many Apples! I think I ate at least 6 before we left. I had to tastes all the different kinds and then I had to eat them when I tasted them! Oh, Apple Heaven!

These animals were so friendly!

Anders had to work up to enjoying the animals, but once he got there he had a blast.

Wyatt really was pulling all these kids around. He is one tough kid!
This girl is amazing!
Uh, ya, I am pretty sure lots of women spend a lot of money to get this sort of hair.


This calf was loving the neck rub I gave her.

Maddie was a little afraid of the animals and the monster looking thing on top of the barn. Couldn't really blame her.

I would lift up the little houses to let the bunnies out and then I would catch one and they would all get a chance to pet it. What a blast!
