I'm off to Texas for Thanksgiving!

Carving Pumkins

The other night we carved our pumpkins. Zach purchased

our pumpkins this year and this is what he came home with.

Aussie (with his bone) being a good sport helped Zach

clean the pumpkins.

The finished projects.

Have a great Halloween everyone!

Millcreek Canyon

The few nights ago Zach took Aussie and I up to Millcreek canyon

to grill us dinner. It was a little on the cool side (hence the

nerdy hat), but the fall leaves were fantastic!

I love this time of year.

New Car

This is our new vehicle. It is a 2008 RDX Acura.

We have had it for almost 2 weeks and Aussie is

enjoying his rides in the spacious back.

Side Note: I apologize to the fam for being slow on picture.

First Car

Today we sold my very first car I owned. It was

an "ice" blue 2000 VP Honda Civic. I am happy

to move on to something new, but I'm oddly sad to see

it go. It has been a great car and gave me no troubles

at all. I would recommend a Honda to anyone. No matter

what my brother-in-law(Jared) thinks.

A Different Route to S'mores

Today I saw a small clip of KSL's Studio 5 T.V. program. They showed different variations to your basic s'more. I thought it was a tasty idea and would share.

Family S'mores Bar:

Begin with the basics of:
Graham crackers, chocolate bars, and marshmallows

Substitute some of the following for your basic graham cracker:

Chocolate chip cookies
Chocolate peanut butter cookies
Fudge-dipped grahams
Fudge-striped shortbread cookies
Chocolate Macaroons

Then try these fun toppings on top of the toasted
marshmallow or marshmallow cream like.....


Chocolate covered raspberry or orange sticks
Reese's Peanut Butter cups
Chocolate covered peanuts
Cherry pie filling
Canned whipped cream
Caramel sauce
Coconut
Junior Caramels or Mints

Digital Camera

I finally came out of the stone age with cameras and

got a digital. It's not supper high tech, so hopefully I will

be able to figure out how it works.

This is the one I got. Will see what I can do.
