Turkey Sweatshop

Turkey Day has always been a big deal in our family...because ...well... the turkeys! Smoking 5 turkeys in the days before thanksgiving is quite the undertaking, but we manage every year because of something I lovingly refer to as the turkey sweatshop:) After 20 years, I'd like to think that I have served my time. It's now time to train up a new generation to take over the operations!



I love that they still think it's fun! Oh the innocence!

Beautiful Day

It has been a really mild winter this year which has made for some great outdoor activities.
I captured this on a beautiful Sunday morning we decided to walk to church from mom's house.


Kambrya is a little ham and must know when a camera is around because she always has the cutest little poses.

Did you know?

If you cook a pie in the microwave for 15 minutes, when the box says to cook it for 3 minutes, that this is what your pie will look like when it's done?

and this is what your house will look?


and this is what your Sunday family dinner will be like?

Thanks to me, we know that now!

Light the Night

We were asked by some friends to join them at a walk to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We were happy to do it...as I am all about supporting people who find a cause and are passionate about making a difference. Okay, and it didn't hurt that weather was PERFECT for a twilight walk around tempe town lake!

Beth made quick friends with our little Kambrya!

I just love that I captured this little moment from behind. How cute are these two Bunns?

Too cute!



Welcome Home

Finally!

My handyman

Whitney's new calling in the ward is the Scoutmaster and I am absolutely loving it because he gets to teach the boys how to do all sorts of things, including this:


...and, without having to beg, I get one of these for the kids bathroom!

Halloween...just a little late!

As Halloween fell on a Sunday this year, we didn't have a ward trunk or treat, so we opted for the next best thing...a family costume party! We loaded up our little dragon and flew on over to mom's house for some spooktacular eats and goolish fun!



Who knew that eating from a grave yard would be so good? The coffins (meat loaf), pile of cremated ashes (mashed pototoes) and discarded body parts (bread sticks) were eerily delicious!


The games....AWESOME!
