Elders Hiking Activity

The Elders of the Mount Scott Ward did a Saturday morning hike activity on a trail close to Mount Hood. It was a short one 1 mile in and 1 mile out which if you know Tyson that was just fine with him. The scenery was great and at the end of the trail was a big waterfall. They enjoyed just visiting and getting to know each other outside of the church setting. Donuts, fruit, trail mix bars, and OJ was had after the hike. One nice thing is that it was a day where it did not rain so it made the hike more enjoyable.

Family Photos

We do family photos every year around Thanksgiving but since we are living in Portland and did not come down until Christmas we did them after the holidays. We went to Freestone park in Gilbert and brought an old truck and some other props to use to try and be as creative and different to make the pictures great. We were even lucky enough to be able to use the merry go round before it was open to the public. Ava was still battling her sickness she had and was not to happy about taking pictures. We did get a few good ones though and thought the pictures turned out great.

New Years Party with the Adair's

The gift that was given from all the siblings on the Adair side for Christmas was the gift of time. To make this happen they planned a party New Years Eve for the adults to get together and eat dinner, play games, light off fireworks, and sing some karaoke. There was a ton of food and candy to last us more than a month. We played some games were we acted out some person, described them, and last only use one word. It was funny to see how everyone acted out the different characters. There were many belly laughing moments. At midnight we went outside and Dave had some fireworks were set off to start our New Year!!! The night did not stop there as a few of the siblings wanted to sing and do karaoke and sang late into the early to late morning. It was so much fun and one of the best gifts given that year for Christmas.

Tyson had this idea of getting a picture of everyone giving their spouse a New Years kiss. At first it was kind of a joke to see who would do it and who wouldn't turned out to be a good thing as everyone was a good sport about it.

Day Shooting with the Boys

For New Years Eve day the boys went out shotgun shooting and had a tournament using clay pigeons. They also brought a few other guns to shoot at targets. They were able to see that some where better at clay pigeons and others at distance shooting on small targets. Some were good at shooting just the air. They had a great time together laughing with each other and sometimes at each other. Nobody was injured except maybe our pride at times.

Elder Romriell Gets Transfered

Elder Romriell was in our area for 7 1/2 months and we had many discussions and dinners and laughs while he was here. He was one of the Elders that helped teach the man Tyson baptized. When he first came to the area he was very shy and did not say very much. Very, Very, quiet... There was major progression that happened in the time he was here. He became more confident in himself and looked like he was ready to take more things on and not hesitate to talk to anyone. We have been able to have the Elders in our home and feel of the spirit they bring with them. We were glad to have met Elder Romriell and be apart of his mission.

Halloween 2011

For Halloween this year we went to our Ward Trunk or Treat which had to be held inside due to the rain. Our family went as pirates this year and many Ward members did not recognize Tyson at all when he walked in and around the church. It was pretty funny when they found out and watch their reactions. Ava had a great time playing all the games and jumping in the jump house and of course eating candy.

We also had a Halloween Party with some of our friends down at our clubhouse. All of the couples dressed up and we ate a ton of food and candy and played minute to win it games. There was a dance off between Tyson and Lisa on who can get the ping pong balls out of a Kleenex box the fastest by shaking their booties. Tyson lost by a tenth of a second but had fun doing it. There were many laughs that went on in each game that kept us entertained all night. Much fun had by everyone.

Some of the Minute to Win It Games-Moving a orange only using a banana on a string wrapped around you and stacking dice on a Popsicle stick.

Brea and Lisa squatting down to pick up paper bags with their teeth & Moving the cookie to your mouth by using your face muscles.

Shooting down cans with rubber bands- figuring how many coins in each and lining them up- All the friends that attended.

We all went out Trick or Treating and Ava had a fun time knocking on the doors and saying trick or treat!!! (We practiced on that) Jess was putting on her best pirate impression. Quick story one door we went to the man opened it up and Ava says, "Pee ewe mommy it stinks" We all tried to keep a straight face until we left and they closed the door. It was hilarious!!

St. George Softball Tournament

This is the second time Tyson has played in this tournament and he loves it. They play all night long until the early morning somtimes until 5 am. He looks forward to playing ball but also staying up late playing Halo with all the guys back at the house. This year changed a bit as far as when they played. The first game they played the wind was blowing 40 mph and rain clouds were coming in. They won the first and started the second one and half way through it started to pour and there was lightning and thunder. Games got cancellled and moved to be played during the day. It was very hot and especially for Tyson since he had adapted to the cold wet Portland weather. Lets just say he wanted to collapse it was so hot. Even with the sun he had a good time with the guys.

Dared Kevin to sing at this bar and grill and he got up and did it.
It was hilarious.

Muddy fields and slippery around third.

Joe went down going into third

Saw this old man riding his bike in just his underwear.
Tells you how hot it was.

Baptism

Tyson had the opportunity of being able to baptize a investigator named Matt. Tyson was so excited and honored to be able baptize him. This wasTyson's first time ever doing this besides him doing baptism for the dead in the temple. This experience was great to see and also to see how excited Matt was to become a member of the church. Tyson said he now knows how missionaries feel when they get this kind of opportunity. It was one of the greatest spiritual experiences he has had. Sept. 2011
