I Don't Want A Pillow

I let Dayler and Bowen watch a movie on Dayler's bed a few nights ago, and Dayler refused to use his pillow. He threw it on the floor when I gave it to him. After a while I went in to check on them. Dayler found a different pillow.

Hunting in 2009

This is the family on the opening day of the Chuckar hunt.


Mark shot a really good buck during the archery hunt this year. We have pictures all over the fridge, and it is already mounted thanks to his Dad.

Introducing Laura & Clint Melling

Laura my sister married Clint Melling on September 12th. Mark took a few pics at the temple. Congratulations Laura and Clint.

More pics of the house!

These pics were taken a few months ago, but I wanted to show some of the work that we have done.

Mark gutted the entire house. Then his Dad came and helped us from there. We had a ton of help from other family members too. Thanks everyone for helping us paint. We were finishing up the big stuff when the carpet layers were just getting started. Not shown in the pics is the new paint job. We also refinished all of the cabinants. We still have some touch up work to do, but it is now comming slowly because we are living in it. I love my new house.

Third Annual Griffiths Reunion

On June 5th we started our family reunion by going four wheeling at Three Peaks Recreational Area. After that the out of towners spent the night and Saturday we had a luncheon with the Barneys, went to Mari's baptism, then headed to mesquite for some swimming. We stayed the night in Mesquite, and bright and early in the morning went to the blessing of Qune and Quad. Did I mention Brett and Shauna had babies number 4 and 5. Yes their oldest is younger than Dayler. We took a family pic, then headed to the park for tons of fun!!! Sorry I forgot to rotate the pics, I was in a hurry.

Before the Move.

Mark used some of the obsidian rocks that we picked up. I think he is pretty good at chipping arrowheads.

Yes, it snowed in April. I took this picture after 5 min, and it kept snowing for a half hour.

Bowen likes to eat the dirt from the plant.

Bowen's First Birthday Party

It is a tradition in our family to have a lamb cake for your first Birthday. Bowen just wanted to get back to the water. We had his party at a park in Washington. It was pretty sweet with a nice playground and a water pad. When it came to opening presents we had to show him there was something cool underneath the pretty paper. Bowen and Dayler had tons of fun with their cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. Thanks every one for coming.
