What Is It?

Less than a week 'til we find out what baby Wight is! Which one, which one? Which one will it be wearing next year?


Baby Wight-- 17 Weeks






17 Weeks-October 30th

Holy Cow...

I was cutting up old shirts for a T-shirt quilt and found this one-- I can't believe I actually wore a shirt long enough for it to get this holey.


Front Yard Visitor

This little guy has been visiting our front yard and cleaning up the crab apples off our lawn. He's fun to watch out the window.


Happy Halloween!

First time carving pumpkins in two years (yay for no school!). Found some books at Smith's with some cool patterns inside and some carving tools. Made life that much easier. We had a lot of fun (and a lot of pumpkin seeds to roast).

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the House...

I was looking through old pics and found these. I took them when I was walking home. The park next to our house is right next to the starting line of the half marathon of the Ogden marathon. I've never seen so many outhouses in one place! I've decided to call it "Skid Row," although I'm probably the only one who thinks that's funny...

Getting Firewood in the Uintas

We took the annual trip to the Uinta mountains to get firewood, with an extra family toted along. Morning sickness dictated that I not try to lift any logs, so I got the babysitter job. That was ok with me.





 Went for a walk for something to do with the girlies

 Found a moose track on our walk

 Went to cool down in the truck and they found Spence's hat and wanted their pictures taken with it




Gotta love my M&M girls!

Oregon Tripping it up!

Me, my spouse and my family all went up to Oregon in August to visit my brother and his wife, and made a few stops on the way up to Forest Grove.


Cloudy day at Crater Lake


 Here you can see the incredible blue Crater Lake is famous for.

Then off to the Redwood Forest...









And, the evidence to how much of a nerd I am, of all the things in the gift shop at Crescent City, this is what I wanted the most.
