Trunk or Treat

I have to just say that I have wanted to be this candy vending machine for 10 years now since I first saw the idea----it was SO much fun and a big hit. I didn't have time to cover the wording and make it perfect but to me it was. Thanks Dave for being the awesome husband to make it for me and thanks Megan for the incredible idea!!

They're back----fall fun!

Yes our leaves are falling down:) but so far we haven't done any work--just play!!!

Preschool Halloween

Megan got to go "trick or treating" today at preschool around the high school classes. I couldn't believe how loaded her bag came home. As you can see, she had a great time. She is loving preschool and the teachers love her...but that is no surprise--how can you not love her?:)

The Pumpkin Farm

This weekend we got to visit family to celebrate the Oct. birthdays. When we arrived we found out that they had just gotten a new car and so of course everyone wanted to have a little "test ride": ) While we were there we headed out to Peach Tree farms. We used to go every year so it was a special treat for us to go and be with family. I still remember going there 10 years ago! They have expanded and have grown with lots of activities. It was fun to remember and I have included a picture of that first year:) It was SO much fun and the weather was incredible. Here are a few things we got to do:

Jordan at Peach Tree with his buddy Kathryn.

I couldn't resist sharing this picture and her "Addie-tude":)

Having a yummy treat

Holding the "hoppies" Addie really liked this. Jordan plays a game with her she calls the "hoppy game" so this was a real treat to get to hold one.





And last but not least, we sang and celebrated the birthday guy---not a kid anymore!Happy Birthday Rob and Rachel!!!

Arms and concrete floors don't mix:(

So Jordan says "I've broken my left arm and now my right arm...now I just need to break my legs..." No thank you Jordan....let's not...

the wanna-be's:)

Megan's baby questions

I had a baby appointment and took the little girls with me---we're down to 10 weeks:) Anyway we stopped at the mall on the way home to get some things and out of the blue Megan says:

"Does it come out of a box?".......and I'm thinking "what?" and she says "does the baby come out of a box?" and so I of course laugh because I know where this is going. I am thinking she got the idea from the fact we keep telling her the baby is coming at Christmas. Then she says "does it come out of your tummy" and I love that and "yes, it comes out of my tummy". She then tells me someone at church told her it will come out of a box:)

Then about 15 minutes or so later I am trying to hold the stroller and Addie and Megan getting on an escalator---I know I could find an elevator but whatever. Anyway then all of the sudden Megan says to me: "Is it going to be black or look like us?"

me: What?????
Meg: Is it going to be black or look like us?

me: You mean the baby?

Meg: "yeah"

me: "It is going to look just like us" I was dying....how funny---where do they get this?

Camping

So the boys have been doing a lot of camping lately. Jordan had 2 scout camps and Dave had 2 more with the older scouts. Anyway here is a couple shots of one of the camps---now of course, you can imagine what is on his christmas list:)haha

It's probably a good thing mothers do not go to these things:)

Conference Weekend

These weekend was conference and it was amazing. You can go to lds.org to listen to or read any of the talks and be totally uplifted:) I wasn't fast enough with the camera but I had the most amazing picture of Addie sitting watching the Prophet. So you only get the choir but that was inspiring too.:) We absolutely loved listening and being together. It is such a blessing to have a living prophet to lead us and guide us today just as they did in ancient times.
