Gma Jackie's Annual Pumpkin Carving Party!

 Grandma Jackie outdid herself again!  We all had a fantastic time at the annual pumpkin carving party and contest.  Everett was so happy that he won a ribbon!  There were some great pumpkins this year - a cat, a haunted house, a Darth Vader, and many more.  Thanks Grandma Jackie for dinner, treats, carving supplies, and so much love!  We love you!!

Beautiful Soccer Day!

Everett was a star at his last soccer game.  He's come a long way from his first game.  He loves chasing the ball, has scored several goals, and is always "at cause" with the game.  Way to go Everett - we love watching you play and having fun with your friends.  We're proud of all that you accomplish.  
Gma and Gpa Butters came to support!  Lil Sherm always finds his way onto to Gpa Sherm's lap!

Re-fueling!

Ready to go back in!

Star Valley

We just returned home from a magical weekend in Star Valley, Wyoming.  Our good friends The Hansen's invited us to join them at their cabin for the weekend and we are so glad we could attend.  The boys made memories to last a lifetime with great friends!  I love seeing my boys running around and enjoying the beautiful earth we live on.  My boys were in heaven.  They shot bb guns, road 4-wheelers, putted on the golf course, collected leaves, played star wars, watched movies, played ski ball, and ran and ran and crashed! Thanks Christian and Ashlee for the fantastic weekend!

The 4-wheelers were a huge hit!  The boys loved riding around the cabin and driving around looking for deer.  Sherman kept asking: "pet it, pet it".  Sadly we were never able to get close enough.


Dad is the best driver!

 These boys could not be happier.

 And just in case riding a 4-wheeler wasn't cool enough, Everett got to drive his very own 4-wheeler around the cabin all by himself.  He and Carter did hundreds of loops and never tired!  

Love this little adventure seeker!
