Since Halloween is coming, I thought I would share some pictures of last years Halloween. Hannah was visiting from Canada. The kids had alot of fun trick or treating together. I love these pictures!! It is so fun to look back! Isabelle was being fussy, so Ammon was holding her. Then we threw Josh in there to keep the other sad ones some what happy........what good helpers we had! I love this one of them!Don't you think the are so cute???

These are our pumpkins this year. Vern just created faces. I think they tuned out cute.

Who's kids are these any way??

Digging out the seeds and goo.

Happy ~Late~ Birthday Leah and Daniel!

We had a little belated birthday party for Leah and Daniel today. They have been so good to wait! Some or our family was able to come and have cake with us. I can't believe how fast they are growing! Leah is so full of energy and she keeps us laughing all the time. Daniel is such a BOY! He loves any thing to do with cars, trains , tools, or his dad. We are so blessed to have them in our family! This first one is of Leah....she lost her first tooth! I love this one of them blowing out the candles, because Royden is helping them.......so cute!

The birthday kids.

In case you are wondering, this is an inch worm.

I thought the train turned out cute. Daniel thought we should make it run!

~Family Pictures~

This past weekend was alot of fun! We had family come up because Wyatt was getting the priesthood. Some of the family was able to stay with Vern and I. We enjoy having family over. One day we are going to have a bigger house, so more people can stay more often. Since Hanna came up we decided to have her take our pictures. We had a hard time getting Isabelle to smile. I think we got some good ones though. Thanks Hanna! You can practice on us any time!!
It had just snowed, so it made for pretty scenery.

These are just some cute pictures of my kids. Hanna came this weekend and took family pictures. I am trying to post some of the family pictures, it's not working yet:(

Daniel LOVED the tractor! He would've stayed there all day if we let him.

This is the first time we got her to smile all day!

Our little house and some snow!

Here are some pictures of the house now that we have moved in. We are really enjoying this house. It's nice to have space!


Another attemt to take a picture of my beautiful bed.
On Friday we got snow. It's only October! The kids thought it was fun. As you can see in this picture Leah is eating some:)

So much for my blankets drying!
I love how pretty everything is when it snows!

I have been tagged........so here are some of my quirks.

1. I love clean sheets! I have to change them often or it drives me crazy!
2. My kids have to have a nap(the little ones do) every day. I need that time to get things done and revamp. They also have to have a bed time (all the kids) or I am not in a very good mood! I like to have time alone at night with Vern to just hang out and relax!!
3. I like to talk on the phone while cleaning in the morning. I can get most of the house clean and it goes by faster.
4. I like to vacuum....weird I know!
5. I hate mice!!! They are dirty, diseased infested little creatures. They can get any where and they run around, and I just do not like them at all!
6. I don't like pop. I think it's the carbonation or some thing. I makes me feel sick.

Thats a few of my quirks. Here are some of the rules: List 6 of your quirks. Tag 6 people. Let the person know you've tagged them. I tag Mellody, Hanna, Alicia, both Rachels, and Carrie

This is what happens...........

when you let your kids paint and then try to take pictures of them!! We let the kids paint in a certain room tonight and they had a blast. It is a little hectic painting with kids, but we got it done! It is soooo exhausting packing one house and painting the other so you can move into it, but we only have 2 days left and this all will be over! Even covered in paint they're still so cute!

It's time!

We are moving into our house on Saturday. I am excited, but I am so ready for this to be over! It might be a few days before I can post anything.
