Snow Day!

Almost two weeks ago on Sunday we woke up to several inches of snow. Usually it kind of creeps up on you. First you see it on the tops of the mountains and the next storm it will be little lower down until eventually it will be in your yard. But not this year! We had some rain the day before but it had stopped so I was thinking we weren't going to get anything else. Josh got up Sunday morning and told me we had several inches out there. For a second I thought he was joking. It snowed all during church and most of the afternoon as well. We decided to let the kids go out and play (is that bad?) Well I'm glad we did because the next day enough had melted that it just wouldn't have been any fun. The snow was completely gone after several days and we had some pretty warm weather but are now back to cooler but it's supposed to get warmer again. I guess that is Utah fall weather for you.

The kids sure had fun while it lasted though.

Cougar Craze!

So this is what we've been eating every BYU game day for several weeks now.

(you can't tell from the picture but the ice cream is called Cougar Craze)

We actually forgot to have any before the game against TCU so I guess we can't blame it all on Charles. We did have blue Koolaid though.

Belated Birthday Pictures.

These weren't pictures from her birthday but I thought they were too cute.

Roth Reunion

I never did get around to putting up these pictures of my family at our reunion in August. We went camping up Logan Canyon and then spent the day at Bear Lake. It was a lot of fun for those that were able to make it.

My brother asked us if we wanted to play a Cheetos game and I was wary but decided I should join in since he was trying to actually have us do something fun together. After we said we'd play and got lined up he brought out the shaving cream. On the count of three we were supposed to put the shaving cream on our faces and our partner would throw Cheetos at our face trying to get them to stick. Emma, Matthew and Katie did not like this game at all. Emma was Josh's partner and she just stood there aghast at what was going on. Matthew was mad because he wanted to eat the Cheetos! I'm not sure exactly what upset Katie (people throwing things at her scary? parents.) But even though I usually hate stuff like that, embarrassing myself, looking like an idiot etc. It was pretty funny!
This is my brother, me, Josh and my niece.

Julia's Pictures!

This is waiting for the Raspberry Days Parade at Bear Lake to start.

These are a couple pictures from the inside of Minetonka cave. It was quite a trip with a lot of stairs but it was fun.

Just hanging out at our campsite.

Happy Birthday Katie!

It is Katie's 3rd birthday today. We just love having her in our family. Everywhere we go people comment on what a cute smile she has and lucky for us most of the time she is smiling. She loves to sing and dance and she loves princesses. My mother-in-law posted some cute pictures of Katie on her blog here.

Farr Better Ice Cream

Several weeks ago we went to Farr's ice cream near the Ogden Temple for our FHE treat. It was delicious! I suggest the Lemon ice cream and Julia is all about Moose Tracks (which I like as well) but there are many other flavors that are wonderful.





If you ever come visit we'll need to make time for a trip there! We wanted to take Grandpa and Grandma this weekend but with such a quick visit there just wasn't time.
