Another month has come and gone and I'm amazed as always at how quickly time goes! It seems like we were just celebrating Labor Day, and now here it is October. . . We did have a fun Labor Day weekend. On Saturday Mike, Cam, Brad and I went on a bike ride along the Bonneville Shoreline, then we went to the movie Bourne Legacy joined by Jake and Jess. Jake had a bunch of friends over for a cookout and badminton, then after they left, Cam had a bunch of friends over for beach volleyball and a soak in the hot tub. Me and Mike took Jess and Brad on in Rook. On Monday the Bundy's organized a fun morning of breakfast, then a thrilling game of Amazing Race (the pict of me and Mike is after "checking in" with host Lindsey and recounting our memories of our time on the race and how much closer we became as a couple- haha). Jake had to work the rest of the day, so missed going boating with the Lesters at Hyrum Dam. We invited them over after that for a cookout at our house and beach volleyball and badminton.
I have loved how much the kids have been hanging out in our backyard with their friends since getting our new patio and hot tub. Jake and friends especially love coming over for badminton.
The Bundy's had a fun sushi party and it was interesting to finally try it for the first time.
Janae and I took a "tips and tricks" quilting class that included this cute lunch (the lady baked the homemade rolls in the pot!). I learned a little, but most of the info was stuff I didn't care about. I did learn how to sew bindings on, so as soon as I get it on a baby quilt I made this summer I'll show it off. I'm also making a jelly roll quilt that I hope to have done by the end of the month.
Janae and I (and three other mom's) had a fun afternoon one Saturday decorating Janae's porch for the homecoming dinner for Cam, Parker and 8 other couples. This was Cam's first dance/date and he had a really fun time.
I love fall in Cache Valley! The canyons are so beautiful. I'm so happy I've been able to get out several times to enjoy the changing leaves. Lindsey and I hiked Crimson Trail one morning, then Mike, Cam, the Bundy's and I went to Tony Grove for a hike around the lake and a picnic one Saturday.
The first collage are pictures from Tony Grove, and the other two are taken from the car as we were driving home.

Ohhhh I miss Logan canyon in the fall!! I don't think that the trees in Fort Collins are quite that good. I really like that first picture of you and dad. And wow, you guys really went all out for Cam's homecoming dinner! That's awesome.
I love staying up on the Jensen family adventures this way. Your pictures are spectacular and all your comings and goings look so fun. Keep up the good work!
Wow!! These photos look in-cred-ible! You MUST have gotten a new camera?! No? September was a great month, flew by way too fast. October is always fun as well, but I'm not usually a fan of November. But sometimes I appreciate the calm before the storm (the Holidays.) Anyways, so glad we joined you for so much. I can't wait to make those rolls in the little planter pots, too cute!
first, i guess i need to add more commentary! you always rise to that occasion. second: what in the world would high schoolers do without their moms? way to help rock their world for the dance.
I Love all of your updates! The pictures are gorgeous and I am jealous you got to stay in Star Valley! Ty's grandparents used to have a cabin there so that is where we honeymooned and spent our first anniversary!
You guys are always having a party it seems! Your kids are definitely luck to have such a fun mom!
