Halloween and a Little Extra . . .

I can't believe how fast our kids are growing up! Connor is now sitting up and rolling all over the place. I just bought this exersaucer on KSL classifieds. He loves it. Here are a few fun pics and movies.

It was my turn to teach this month for Allie's Joy School. We had a Halloween party on our last day. What cute kids!
Here's Allie (elephant), Connor (Lion), and me at our ward Trunk or Treat.
I got Allie's costume at Costco for $10. I thought it was both a good deal and adorable. However, I had to convince Allie to wear it. She, of course, wanted to be a princess or a fairy. What was I thinking buying my three year old girl a frumpy elephant costume?!Each year we spend Halloween with my sister-in-law and her family. Here is Allie trick or treating with her cousin Quinn, the dragon. As you can see, the Costco costumes were a hit this year! Allie's favorite candy are suckers. Can't keep her away from them.
Connor with his Aunt Kirsty. She's dressed up as the world and we loved her costume! She teaches geography.
It was a great Halloween and we look forward to it every year. Once again, thanks for the awesome chili, Gordon!

Glimpse of Allie as a Teenager . . .

So I was reading Allie the book "Ten Little Monkeys" for bed last night. I was being a little silly and started to read the book as fast as I could, making Allie laugh. Suddenly she gets serious and says, "Mom, Mom." I stop reading and look up at her. She continues by saying, "Mom, chillax!" She's three! Where is she picking up this modern lingo? Then it hit me - Allie's Aunt Kirsty! Wish I could have gotten it on tape.

September . . .another crazy month!

1. I painted my hall green
2. Allie started preschool (she is getting so old)!
. . .but not old enough to give up the land of make believe. Here is Allie picnicking with a few friends (Ms. Bunny & Mr. Bear). So cute!
3. Connor starts grabbing and rolling
. . .and laughing.

4. Cameron goes on a hike with his brothers and Dad over Labor Day weekend while I go to Swiss Days in Midway, Ut with the girls.


5. Cam and I meet up in Denver where we visit family for a week and play with Nana's puppiesA few of Allie's cousins6. Cameron goes out of town for week for work.
7. We attend my grandparents 60th Wedding Anniversary in Pocatello, Idaho.
8. I manage to catch a cold that turns to Bronchitis. I cough for a couple of weeks until I bruise my ribs. Then, I bend over to put my socks on and "pop." After a morning of a lot of pain and a doctor visit, I learn that I've managed to separate my rib. Still nursing Connor so I only get to take Ibuprofin. It never crossed my mind that coughing too hard could pop my ribs out of place. The madness!

Demolition Derby!

A few fun things we've been doing in Spanish Fork . . .
Cam and I went to a Demolition Derby with Cam's cousin and wife (Evan and Driel). It was my first time and I was a little shocked at first. It was pretty crazy.


For Family Home Evening, we went on this quick hike near where we live to a small waterfall.
