Halloween Party - October 16, 2010

Family Halloween Party Oct. 16, 2010

We had our annual Heinhold Family Halloween Party on October 16, 2010. Every year, Grandpa Ken and Grandma Lynne host it at their home, but since they are on a mission in New York, this year we hosted it at our home! We had a great time playing fun games with the kids: musical mats, Red light green light and Mummy wrap. The finale is always the Pinata!! The weather was beautiful for an October evening...that day the high was 79 degrees!! We had a great time!

Spring City with the Terry's Labor Day Weekend 2010

Our dear friends, Jason and Sally Kelsch and their children were baptized to follow the Lord on July 2, 2009. A year later, on July 30, 2010, Jason and Sally went through the temple for the first time. The next day they were sealed and then their children were sealed to them. It was the most amazing experience!!! I was blessed to be Sally's escort as she went through the temple for the first time. Her mother, Alhona, also went through the temple for her first time on the same day. It was a beautiful experience and our family was so grateful to be a part of it. On July 31, 2010, Tamara Jensen and I put together an open house for the Kelsch's. It was going to be in our backyard, but about an hour before the open house, we had to pack everything up and move it to the ward because the weather turned windy and rainy. Other than that, it was perfect!! Josh, Jake and Ryan were troopers as they had to set up our backyard, take everything down, and then set up again at the ward. Such great kids!!

Mom and Dad's Farewell-July 18, 2010

Evening at the Homestead with Debra Fotheringham

One of our family's favorite singers is Debra Fotheringham. Every year she plays up at the Homestead. We always go up and listen to her. After, we like to go to Fanny's Grill for hot chocolate out on the patio.

Herriman Elementary Dance Festival June 30, 2010



I never wrote about the Herriman Dance Festival (probably because Ryan only sort of cares about it, but I love going to it and watching all the kids dance).



Ryan is in 5th grade and the 5th grade classes were representing the 70's era of music. He insisted that his hat and wig were definitely 70's style clothing! I think he really just wanted to wear that weird hat and wig to school.

Jake's tonsillectomy June 11, 2010


On Friday, June 11, Jake had his tonsils taken out. He had been getting strep pretty frequently and was to the point of a chronic sore throat. His tonsils were huge even when he wasn't sick! He did really well. When they took me back to the recovery room after the surgery, one of the nurses was feeding Jake a rootbeer slushie and the other was writing his "stats" down. Jake was sitting up with a smile on his face. One of the nurses looked at me and asked, "Can we keep him?" and then the other said, "Yes, can we keep him? He is the most adorable and pleasant patient we've ever had!" They proceeded to tell me how he had come out of the anesthetic "beautifully". They asked him when he was coming to, to tell them about himself and they said, "We learned his name is Jake Timm, he lives in Herriman and he plays football." Jake is such a great kid and he is super glad the surgery is over!!

Josh's 18th Birthday June 10, 2010



Josh turned 18 on June 10, 2010! Unbelievable that Benj and I are now parents of an adult. Man, we're not even old! Anyway, we had such a fun day. We took Josh to one of his favorite restaurants for lunch, Panda Express. That night we had a surprise party for him at Buca Di Beppo. All of his little cousins jumped out and yelled, "Surprise" as he walked into our own private room. What a fun night!

Trip to St. George and Zion June 3-6 2010

Trip to St. George and Zion June 3-6 2010


The day after Josh's graduation, we left for St. George for some rest and relaxation! We spent a few days down there enjoying the pool, the heat (since it has been a freezing cold spring!), and Zion National Park. While in Zion, we swim in the river pools up there. It is so much fun and the kids and hubby had a blast jumping into the nice cold water since it was 105 degrees while we were down there!

Josh's Graduation from High School June 2, 2010!!!


Josh graduated from Riverton High School on June 2, 2010. I can't believe he is this old. Where did time go? It wasn't that long ago that he was just a little boy, and now he is a young man. The graduation was held at the South Towne Expo Center since there were so many graduates. There were 850 that graduated that night and the Expo Center was packed! When they read off the names, they did it quickly, one right after another and it still took 40 minutes!! We are so proud of Josh and can't wait to see all the great things he will accomplish!
