Fraidenburg Thanksgiving

Since this is an InLaw year we had a pre thanksgiving for those who could make it on Sunday. Walter, Traci, Boyce, Trey, Melissa, Andy, Grace and Clark were missed. Grandma and Grandpa Totten were able to come down and join us. It was so fun. Round two of the frying turkey. This year we remembered to take off the plastic. However they put John in charge of pre heating the oil. 45 min. later it was discovered it was on low instead of high. Of course John blamed Luke and Luke blamed Dad. It was funny. So an hour later we pulled out the turkey. It looked super nummy. After the carving began we realized that it was not all the way cooked. So we took off the finished meat and put it back in the oil for round 2. It came out nice and crispy after it was re-fried. Mom and Dad ate the legs of the turkey. Needless to say there was no turkey leftovers. Hope the pictures show the progression of the dinner activities. We did get a chance to wish Melissa a happy birthday over I-Chat thanks to Luke. It was fun to see her(well for a second) and chat with her while we watched our selves. I think John enjoyed it the most! Happy Birthday Melissa!!! wow welcome officially to the 30's !!!! Love you all!!!

OJH School Carnival and Spook Alley

This year i am the adviser for the student government at Olympus JR. We had a fund raiser and had the very first school carnival. It was a great success. We were worried about bad weather but the student body did a anti rain dance and the rain stayed away. It was pretty cold but no wet weather. It was way fun hopefully we do it next year. We also had a spook alley to raise can foods for the Utah Food Bank. It was a lot of work but the students had a great time. It was pretty well attended and pretty spooky if you ask me. However I scare easy so they watered it down for me when I did the walk through. It all looked pretty real to me.

Moab Oct 2008

Welcome to Delicate Arch! Me and Dad hiked up this Friday afternoon once we arrived in Moab last weekend. It was so great. Perfect weather and not crowded at all. We had a lovely time hiking and jeeping. It was too short! Besides Dad almost plummeting to his death at the bottom of this ridge it was a pretty safe trip.

Since John was only going to enjoy his birthday for 6 hours before crossing that international date line we played at Lagoon with John, Tina, Melissa, Grace, Clark, Mom, Dad, Uncle Matt and me. It was so much fun until the end when me, John and Uncle Matt went on Skycoaster. Yeah its a 150 ft drop on cables. It was pretty freaky but cool at the same time. It was like being the Dark Knight flying over the park. (not really but maybe)

The fourth of July was a blast. Before we all went to the Bee's game, me and Marie took Boyce swimming we had a great time. Boyce is an amazing swimmer. He showed no fear!!!

Right after school let out I went down to California to play with Brandy and the kids. Sarah joined us a few days later it was soooo much fun!!! (except the toe nail being ripped off)

Summer 2008

Ya I have been a complete slacker with this blog but now that i am not sleeping at nights this is what i can do to help pass the time. I cant believe its already time to go back to school. I just wanted to post some pics of the recent events in my life. Just in case you all wanted to know.

Welcome to Grand Cayman!! It was a beautiful 80 degrees and gorgeous!!! The water was warm and the beaches sandy. It was the best time.

I know most of you would never ever guess I would get one of these things up and running but i have lots of pics to share and don't like being left in the dust. Maybe now I can be as cool as my other siblings. Hope you enjoy and let me know how much cooler I can make this!!!
