Celebrating Grandpa's 93rd birthday

A Christmas Tractor....

The holidays are here and our days are full of preparation and celebration. We have a great Thanksgiving and look forward to a wonderful Christmas time. Meanwhile -- here are some pictures from the last few weeks. Emily and Bree had a wonderful time showing off their dance skills with Miss Shelia....



...and Dean shows off his majestic pictures from his hike down the Grand Canyon. He was especially proud of the buck he shot....only with a camera of course....





...and then there is the grandma's school fun...leaves and dinosaurs and abc's ...





With our beautiful weather we are wondering when winter will really come but meanwhile...we will enjoy each day as much as we can!

Halloween Fun.2011

October was full of lots of fun activities and especially Halloween We all had a great time at the witches party and enjoyed the great food and being with family members. Preschool also added a few more parties and the guys partied in the mountains for the Deer Hunt...lucky Ryan and Bryn both got their deer. So have fun viewing the fun....

Happy Birthday Max

SWISS DAYS 5K

The annual Swiss Day's 5K arrived bright and early but this year we recruited some fellow runner's /walkers to join us.

The Carr's were in town and so Lige ran with his Dad and Shelli ran with Sherri. Yes I said ran...while the rest of us jogged along in spots and walked the rest of the time. In spite of our pledge last year to be ready to run the race...we are still happy walkers. Maybe next year?

Running in the dark are Shelli and Sherri...easily identified by the shining hat rim.

Lige and his Dad Mike....The real runners....good luck in the Marathon!

Lige & Shelli, Shana, Wyone and Sherri

Wyone, Karen, Sherri, Lige, Shelli, Sharla, and Shana ready for the fun.

This has been a summer of fun things... family activities, trip to Fish Lake, 4-H with the girls, reunions at the DirtFarm....how quickly the time flies by and it is almost time for school...so enjoy the random events...The girls love to cook and are pretty good at it. It's the cleaning up that is the trial! The Reunions at the Dirt Farm helped us reconnect with lots of family members on the Barton and Losee sides. There was even a repeat of the mud bath...just new participants...Dad and his snowy white beard was quite a hit and drew lots of comments..
We loved Fish Lake and did a bit of fishing and hiking and hanging out with great friends. Last of all...Grandpa Losee loved seeing his old tractor looking like new.
