Warren Jeffs Found Guilty

Those of you who participated in our blog poll (6) were right — Warren Jeffs was found guilty! That just proves that our friends and family are perfect predictors of the future! Kirk and Kenny are pretty relieved to have most of the media circus over - at least until the end of November when the sentencing will take place and then Jeffs will be sent to Arizona to face charges there. Kirk tried to stay out of sight of the media, but Kenny had to be at the courthouse everyday and had to stay there even while the Jury was deliberating, so Christan is happy to see her husband a little more often.

Homecoming at BYU

Kirk and I went with our friends to BYU's Homecoming Game where we got soaked in the rain, but watched BYU beat Air Force 31-6. We sang "Rise and Shout" and did the Darth Vader defense chant, and motioned for "another BYU FIRST DOWN" a bunch of times. It was great - we felt like we were students again. In fact, it took us right back to Kirk's days at BYU as Cosmo. What a great time that was for us. Although, I guess I wasn't such a savvy wife to let Kirk hang out with a bunch of cheerleaders! Here's Kirk as Cosmo shooting his patented half-court shot.

Cabin Views

Here's our cabin and some of the views that you see on the drive up (through Zion National Park). The photos were taken by my sister-in-law, Ree, who said it was some of the most beautiful scenery she had ever seen!

Labor Day at the Cabin

Shellie, George and Abby came to spend Labor Day Weekend with us at our cabin on Kolob. They brought some of George's family (his mother Flory and his brother Alan), their good friends, Derek and Nikki, and three dogs! So we had a cabin full. We all had a great time eating, riding 4-wheelers, swinging in the hammocks on the porch, and watching Alan and George do their handy-man magic around the cabin. Abby and I called dibs on the hammocks and spent lots of quality time rocking, singing and napping together. It was grandma heaven for me!

The "Brian Towers Over Kenny" title was Brian's edit to my blog page. Who said when the Smith brothers grew up they'd lose their competitiveness?
