Need a Hero?

For our ward Halloween party, the bishopric always dresses up. Secretly, they look like ordinary nerds, but....

... then they become heroes!

Joe got to be Flash. His boots are womens rain boots with yellow duct tape. Everyone made their costume from scratch. The Bishop even sewed his own muscles in!

Doesn't he look like he can run really fast?

I got to accompany the Phantom and Christine. It was fun!

This has nothing to do with Halloween, but I consider myself to be a superhero for making my first pizza from scratch, and using my stone. I put the pizza on parchment paper which makes cleaning a lot easier. YUMMY!!

Happy Birthday Lizzy

On August 21 my niece Lizzy celebrated her second birthday. I was the only one who brought a camera, so this is for my family--

Lizzy fell asleep in her high chair. It was pretty funny.

Ross also fell asleep. What a party!

Lizzy's first gift was a princess dish set from uncle Brian. She loved it! We had a hard time getting her to open any more presents.




She loves watching a YouTube video of Elmo on my brother's iphone, but wasn't sure what to think of this.

Camping trip

So it's all past stuff...but here goes! In August we got to go camping for the first time this year, with some friends. It was a blast! And true camping--meaning, there was no "bathroom".

Within a couple minutes of getting out of the car, Savannah was covered with dirt and just enjoying life. She loved everything!

Joe pondering the meaning of life! Or just trying to be funny.

The Ashby clan: Isaac, Stephanie, and Savannah

The view from our car. These moose are huge! We're just glad we were in the car or else Isaac would have chased them.

A very happy, dirty Savannah!
