Utah

Over Veterans Day this year we went up to Utah for our Cousin Jon's baptism. We had so much fun! It was a really good experience for my boys to see Jon baptized, and the spirit was very strong there. Way to go Jon!

It was cold there, which gave us all excuses to wear coats and gloves and hats, something we never get to do.
We missed most of the fall colors, as the leaves had mostly fallen off the trees, but that was cool too. I couldn't even get Ladybug to look at me she was so awed by the leaves.

Jon, Little Man, David, Squirt

Squirt, Ladybug, Morgan, Lauren

We went up into a canyon and got some family pictures in the snow ((coming soon!)) it was very cool. All Squirt wanted to do was make a snow angel, but once we got there he was so cold all he wanted to do was go home.

We played and played and played.

Uncle Kevin taught Little Man how to ride a 2 wheeler, (he's 7, we're bad parents, lol) and it's all he's talked about since. I think I've probably ran at least 3 miles since then (just last week) along side his bike. I guess it'll pay off for me in the end too:)

Halloween 2010

I was deemed "Coolest Mom Ever" by Squirt for coming up with this costume. He's still running around in it.

My little Police Officer was very Serious about his job:
Daddy let him use some of his real Duty Gear, like his Flash light and Handcuffs which made it "so TOTALLY AWESOME!"

And my scary little witch was just too cute not to kiss:


We had a ton of fun "Trunk or Treating" on Saturday night this year. On Halloween night we went out to grandma's house and had a huge bonfire and ate and ate and ate with our cousins!

Oh my goodness! Love these guys:)

Playing Catch-Up

Wow, I'm so behind. I'm just going to throw a whole bunch of pictures your way:

Mix Match Day at school: For a little boy who could care less about his appearance, this was like the coolest day ever!


Look what I made, all by myself, no pattern!!: I'm seriously so proud of myself. This little tiny dress took me forever to make because my model kept needing to nap!
And here they are hanging out watching Daddy play Softball. Little Man even got to go out on the field and throw the ball around before the game started.
