HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!


(Three new posts just so you know!...keep reading!)


Happy Halloween! Fall is my favorite time of year, such perfect weather and so many fun fall activities for families around here. We made it out to Thanksgiving Point this year and went to their famous "Cornbelly's corn maze." They had so many fun activities for the kids there, it was actually pretty amazing. Slides, blow up jumping things, hay rides, etc..my kids loved it and when it was to go they were kicking and screaming.
We had so much fun this year and am so sad that it's already over! This year my sweet Brooklyn was a dancer girl off of High School Musical, Austin was Bumblebee the Transformer, and Talon was a lion. They were the cutest kidos ever and had so much fun. We went to our wards trunk or treat and got more candy then you can imagine! My family was so nice and come up to spend it with us. My mom, dad, sister Kyli, and my other sister Taucia and her fiance' Ryan. During that day we went wedding dress shopping for Taucia and she found the dress of her dreams! Then we came home, went to the trunk or treat, came back home, ate pizza and the Oreo dirt cake and spider cupcakes I made, then watched a scary movie to end the night. Thanks to my family for coming and spending some time with us (especially to my 16 yr old sister Kyli, I know you had to have given up some sweet Halloween parties. I really appreciate it! Oh, and I just have to brag real quick about Kyli, she's a freshman and just made the varsity basketball team! Good job Kyli, I'll be coming home to watch many a games! Love you all, see you in a few weeks for Thanksgiving!

I thought this was such a cool chair...Talon thought otherwise as you can see!

Loves from my girl



They had such cute things at this place!


Austin was all smiles the whole time



Me and my baby



They went down this slide probably 50 times






cheese!



We aren't really brave enough around here to attempt carving pumpkins yet so we pain them. These are our final products



Ben is seriously awesome. We have probably been through three vacuums since we've lived here. Ben took back our other vacuum about a month ago and when he left I told him not to come home with some cheepo one again or I would scream! He called me and told me that he bought one on sale for $75 and all I said was, "If this one breaks in the next year I'm buying a Dyson." He just laughed and said ok. That night he walked in the door with a Dyson...oh I love him! Thanks for spoiling me babe. Our carpet has never been so clean, I vacuum every day now..it's my favorite chore!
This is Brooklyn's favorite part about Halloween, she LOVES painting the pumpkins, and every year she chooses blue.


Such an artist
