Last night each of the kids received a special video from Santa that they were able to watch on the computer due to a cool thing that Santa now has called the PNP. The kids were in shock and disbelief that Santa knew their names, ages, where they lived, and exactly what they wanted this year for Christmas. They even saw their picture in his naughty and nice book. After talking to them for a little bit, Santa answered a special question each one of them had. Courtney found out how Santa knows if you have been naughty or nice, Hayden found out how the reindeer fly, and Kenzie found out how Santa can go to everybody's house on Christmas Eve. It was amazing and very fun to watch!

Halloween Happenings
Kenzie thought this costume was the best she had ever seen and wanted me to take a picture of her with him but this is the best we were able to do.

Moab Trip - Part 1
This cabin was awesome and we would totally do this again. The cabin had electricity and 2 sets of bunkbeds and one queen bed, you just had to bring your own bedding. Each cabin had a picnic table, a grill and a water tap. The KOA also had showers and nice bathrooms. It was great!
We first stopped at the Visitor Center and went through that and then picked up the booklets for the kids to do the Junior Ranger Program. Then we headed into the park where we say these things:

Pine Nut Picking
Chad came home 3 days later with one very tired and dirty boy and about 8 bags of pine nuts which we laid out to dry and in a few weeks ended up with about 70 lbs. of pine nuts which have since been sold. Yeah!!! It was a lot of work but we ended up with just over $500. Not to bad if I do say so myself.

We're back!!
One of the fun things during one of our many stays up at Scofield on the weekend was a visit from the Hurd family. We were very excited since we don't get visitors up there very often so we had the weekend packed full of lots of activities.

Pleasant Valley Days
Friday we spent the day relaxing, playing around and taking a few walks down by the docks.
Kenzie even came up with a little dance that she did throughout the parade which was cute and it surprised the heck out of me that she would do it. Courtney and Hayden were not as brave - they stuck with eating and throwing candy and balls.
Sunday we stayed up to Scofield and went to church in the little branch that is there. On a normal Sunday there is not even 100 people (including kids). This Sunday there was about 400. It was crazy but a very nice day.
Hope everyone else had a great 4th of July! One of these times you guys will have to come and visit us for the 4th at Scofield.
