LGC!!

LGC... The Larsen Girls Club! (sorry its a little blurry)

The Larsen Sisters (Queens of the LGC)Mary Lu, Susie, Jule, Shalana

Once a year all the girls on the Larsen side (Colby's mom) get together for a big bash! We do some crafts, eat, laugh, eat some more, talk, craft, eat, laugh... and reveal the Secret Sisters! Every year we draw a Secret Sister and throughout the whole year you do nice things/gifts for that person. Then at the LGC party you reveal who you had and you pick a new one for next year!! It is so dang fun!

Jule (Colby's aunt) was my S.S. and she was Fabulous!!


This year we lost a member of our club... Jody passed away in August! In remembrance of her we all had a pink balloon to let off as we made a wish for her.
It was so cool cause we let them all go at the same time and they never seperated, they stayed clusted until we couldn't seen them anymore.

Susie in her Queen Robe! Oldest member of the LGC!


Gentry, Jessica, Cierra, Jeana, Brit, and Britney... This is the funnest party ever! Everyone looks forward to it every year! and you all should be jealous you're not invited! I married into the greatest family ever! xoxo

Happy Halloween!

This year Colby and I dressed as bikers! The best part of our costme is our awesome HOG... The Scooter! Both of our families are big into Halloween so we had fun playing games, eating, trick-or-treating, taking pics, watching movies, and our traditional Smith Family Halloween parade! We even dressed up at work! I am so glad Colby will dress up and have fun... love him! Love Halloween!

Witches Night Out!

I love Halloween time! We went to "Witches Night Out" at Gardner Village! Hundreds of women dress up in their best witch costumes and gather at Gardner Village for lots of shopping, dancing and other witchy things.... There are witches, goblins, and other creatures (as shown below) that roam around and have a good time! It was a fabulous night! (We did alomost die, maybe, on the drive up. My lovely mom-in-law was having some issues with her leaves on the hat... they were blocking her view! as you can see they are a bit obtruse, but they looked excellent!) :)

The "Witches" ready for a night out!

YA YA Sisterhood...

While my husband was hunting last weekend we decided to go to this fun party at Thanksgiving Pointe! YA YA Sisterhood! You dress up in fun outfits and hats (like from the movie) and do some shopping, eating, dancing, shouting, laughing and lots of fun! We didn't have anything to wear, but sure did find some fun hats and then added our own fun touches! We deffinately are making it a tradition! I had to steal these pics from my Aunt Ash, we did take more fun ones with my mom and Kierst but she was having trouble posting them! But this pic clearly says how fun it was!

Me and Ash buring our woes! When we first got there they had everyone write down a woe you want to burn and then at the end of the night you recite a little thing and burn it in the fire! We had a great time! Can't wait til next year! YA YA

In Memory Of...

Ok so the last few weeks have been horrid! My Mom's dad passed away a week and a half ago. He died of cancer. Then to make things worse... my uncle (my mom's brother) was found dead just this last Saturday night! He was found in his home and had probably been there for a few days. Very unexpected! Uncle Joe had just turned 46. He was divorced and has a 10 year old daughter! It's not very often you have 2 family members pass away in 1 week! (Uncle Joseph Corfield Deveraux)

His viewing will be Friday night at Anderson's and the funeral is Saturday in Springville. I still am kind of shocked and can't believe it! They will be so greatly missed!

Welcome Home

My friend Shanna King just returned home from her mission!
Welcome home Shanna! She is the cuttest little return missionary ever! She spoke on Sunday and did a great job!

Monday Afternoon With...

The Robinson's!
Yesterday Colb and I went 4-wheeling up AF Canyon! It was so pretty up there. The leaves are just starting to change colors. All Colby cared about was seeing an animal... a deer, elk, bear... anything! When were were driving up we actually saw a HUGE BEAR in the middle of the road! But the second it saw the truck he ran. We did see a few deer... some were close, but most were clear at the top, but don't worry Colby had his binoculars so we saw them perfectly! We had so much fun! What a great way to spend your day off!

Girls Trip...

I'm a little late on posting this, but a few weeks ago some of my friends from High School got together and took a quick weekend trip to Sunny St. George!We had so much fun!! We relaxed by the pool, talked, ate junk food, talked some more, went to dinner, shopped a little, Laughed, Talked some more, danced, had many photo shoots, walked around the block, went to the gas station after midnight for a treat, talked and laughed some more!! I think we all missed our husbands by the end... you can only handle being in a house with 8 girls for so long! It was so fun to catch up on life and chat about the old days!!

The Girls out to dinner...

In Loving Memory...

Colby's cousin Jody passed away last Saturday night surrounded by family! She lost her husband at the first of the summer and just couldn't recover after his loss! They left behind 4 kids; Jason (22), Jordan (20), James (16), and Jana (13). Such a sad deal, we are so sorry for the loss. At least now she is in a better place! We'll sure miss her.

River Run...

This year on the 24th of July most of my fam including my 2 sister-in-laws, Cierra and Gentry, and Ashleigh's friend Tim, but not including the guys and my mom, (who had to work) decided to go for a ride down Provo River! Seriously so much fun! If you have never done it you need to go! Some say you just relax and float... some don't! Sometimes you may find yourself in some small rapids which are way fun, and sometimes you might find yourself in the trees, over rocks, or invading the space of the nice people fishing! We laughed and laughed! Even though the water is a bit freezing it is great fun!

Here we are ready to go... Life jackets and all...

After our Ride...Best 24th ever! Can't wait to do it again!

Happy Birthday Shalana!

A shout out to the Best mother-in-law... ...hope she had a Fabulous Birthday! Couldn't ask for better than you, you are the best! Never a dull moment with her...just look at the pic for re-assurance! Best Disneyland trip ever!! We Love You!!!

Smith Super Star Rally!

Ok seriously... we are the funnest family! (You have to look at every pic cause you will laugh your head off!) On July 3rd, we started a new tradition in the fam... The Smith Super Star Rally! We were split into 2 teams and had to compete in a single, double and team event! Events included: Ice Cream Drop, Lovers Leap, Pop Pop Fizz Fizz, Egg Toss, Tube Blow, Peanut Butter Lick, Spoon Thread, oodles of noodles, chubby bunny, Aqua Filla, and Jug Hold. Then we also did a relay race with events including: bobbing for apples, licorice eating, shaving cream, cheeto throwing, crazy dressing, math equations, and water balloon popping! We kept score and had a trophy for the winning team! (and you better believe we have video footage!) Can i say competitive... wow! You would have thought we were fighting for our life! I know I am competitive, but we saw a different side of some of the family! Each year there are 2 team captains. This year it was Ren and Ash. They planned the whole thing! They did an excellent job! It seriously was like fear factor and we had the best time ever... because we are the coolest family ever! When it got dark we set up the TV outside and watched a movie in the backyard and had a sleep out!
