As of Late...

A couple weeks ago, Mom, Dad, and I drove up to Rock Springs to watch Kelsey and the Mustangs play in their first home game. Kelsey did amazing and it's so fun to watch her.
We missed her at Thanksgiving this year. She had a tournament this weekend so they ate together as a team then got on a bus and made their way to Sheridan.

The day before Thanksgiving, Blake and the boys in the Ballard clan went down to the sand dunes for a much deserved break and to play a little with their dirt bikes.
Our Thanksgiving was spent down in South Jordan with my grandma and cousins. Aunt Jojo and everybody pitched in to make an excellent meal and it was fun to see everybody again, wish it could have lasted longer!

Don't mind how rank I look...we were laughing...

2 Years

Happy 2nd Anniversary to us! I've been lucky enough to have Blake by my side for the last couple of years and can't wait for the many adventures that are still in store. As far as what we're doing...well, you can find us at Mutual with the Young Women and Young Men :)

Go Mustangs!!!

Wow...never thought that I would say that...ever. Guess you should never say never and with Kelsey's basketball season underway I'm sure we'll be uttering that phrase for many months to come. Western Wyoming's first game is tonight against Mesa State in Colorado so Go Mustangs!

The Newest Ballard

Well it is official, we have a new member of the family. After a long debate over what her name should be and the fact the you can't name a girl Diesel, Blake came up with the name KC and we already love her. She is a lab husky mix, quite the cute little gal, and we're excited for all the fun times that come with a puppy. Last night she hardly cried when we put her in the back room for bed and this morning she was so happy to see us...the feeling is mutual! Here she is...

Of course I'll try and get some better pictures, right now everytime I squat down to get a cute photo, she just comes running over!

Tony's Grove

Today after church and a great Sunday dinner, we took a ride up Logan Canyon to see the pretty fall leaves. We headed up towards Tony's Grove and had fun just walking around and enjoying the sights.

Fall

Well, it seems like fall has arrived with things cooling off. We've been trying to enjoy the last bits of good weather and this weekend went up to Weston again for another ride with the family. Kelsey was able to come home one last time before Christmas and it was good to see her and her basketball buddy Kada. Hopefully fall sticks around for awhile, we're not looking forward to winter.

This is the crew up at Billy Goat...a spot on the King farm. Oh and it's crooked because we were having a hard time finding something to prop the camera on...
