Fall Break, Deer Hunt...the usual

Two weekend ago, it was Fall Break for USU, so Danny and I decided to head to Grantsvill/Lake Point to spend some quality time with family. I was able to take work off on that Friday and we decided to hike Deseret Peak that day. Oh man...I'm so out of shape! It was really rough, and I wasn't sure if I could make it, but we did! Here are some great pictures:

 Super fun!  (Nevermind the lack of make up)

We also saw the movie Secretariat with my family. It was the BEST movie! We all really enjoyed it! We recommend it to anyone who wants to see a good movie!

What else have we been up to?...Oh, we went to see this big band music show called 'In the Mood' for Danny's art class. I thought it was really cool and we both knew a few of the songs. We are going to go on a pumpkin walk tomorrow night (weather permitting) which is also for his class. Should be fun!

This past weekend was the opening day of the deer hunt! Danny, Kyle and Brad headed out to the mountains south of Evanston. They were out all day in the snow and cold and searched....and hunted...and got lost...but unfortunately, didn't see any bucks. They did see a spike about 2 seconds in, but they decided not to take it, with it only being 2 seconds into the hunt. It sounds like they had lots of fun, even if they were cold and tired. But they are still trying to get something; Kyle and Danny are out hunting right now, actually. We'll see if they get anything. I sure hope they do! :)

While Danny and Kyle were on their way hunting, I got to watch the Cannon-Man! We had a great time while Melissa was working hard. Here's just a fun picture of Cannon falling asleep during breakfast!

So cute! It was so fun to watch him, he is such a stud!

I'm also starting a couple of fun quilting projects, but I will post about those soon when I get something to show! Should be fun!

And finally, here are a couple of photos from our family pictures in Kamas. They turned out great!

Cake, Conference and Cabin

It's been a while since we've posted...my computer isn't doing good at uploading pictures and blogs aren't fun without pictures! :)
As most of you know, my birthday was this last week on Tuesday and it was a really fun day! It started off with Danny singing Happy Birthday to me, groggily, but beautifully. :) I then went to work and they surprised me by decorating my desk!



They also made me a cake and gave me lunch. It was a good day at work, surprisingly. :)

After work, Danny and I went up Logan Canyon to look at the pretty colors. We got to see some really beautiful things and stopped a couple of times to wander around. Danny was looking for some deer and moose...we didn't see any, but it would have been cool. 

 

After that, we went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. I mentioned that it was my birthday to the lady who was seating us, but our waiter didn't know, so luckily I didn't have to sit on the saddle thing, but we got a free appetizer. So yummy!
After that, we went to the Rodemack's for cake and ice cream! They graciously sang to me in the infamous Clayton way and it was something I won't soon forget. After their splendid performance, we had cake and it was super yummy! Thanks again, Kyle & Melissa & Cannon!

In case you were wondering, Danny bought me season 6 of The Office and we're excited to catch up to the current season. It's been so much fun to watch...thanks, babe! I also got many birthday wishes and other great gifts and I thank you all!


For Conference weekend, we went to the Clayton cabin in Kamas. It was a great opportunity for us to try out our new sleeping bags! We took family pictures on that Saturday between sessions and hopefully the pictures will turn out good. It was so much fun to spend time with family and to eat yummy food! Here are some funny pictures of Cannon, our nephew. He had all the ladies in the family fighting over him :)

 

And here are some more fun pictures of Danny and I.
