Picture Day
The following are some pictures I liked of each of the children. This was taken of Spencer right at our front door. He didn't want his picture taken, but I liked it!
This tree is in the park that is part of our subdivision. Look at those beautiful blue eyes.
I am pretty sure that this little girl has captured her daddy's heart. What do you think?

Decorating the Tree
Cora had fun with some of the ornaments as well. The finished product! Anyone notice the large grouping of ornaments to the left at child level?

Our Trip to Arizona
That was one of the quickest trips ever! We weren't in Arizona for 48 hours but it was fun! We spent Friday with Ryan's parents. Ryan and his dad golfed and his mom, Cora and I went to lunch and shopping. On the way home we saw a car that was painted like Herbie, I had to take a picture of it because that is one of Spencer's favorite movies. When I got home and showed him the picture, he just sat there and looked at it for 5 minutes.
Saturday we headed down to Tucson and spent the afternoon and evening with the Olsens! We talked and had some Yummy Queso! I got to see the kiddos. I have missed them soooo much. I can't believe how big they are. I wish I could have put them in my pocket and took them with me. Miranda came by to say hi and see Cora. We then met up with the Batleys and all headed to dinner. It was nice to see Cole and Ellie as well. I used to think that Cole had the cutest voice ever, but Ellie might beat him out! Way too cute. We had some yummy dinner at Blancos. We went back to the Olsens and talked some more. We checked out Jeannie's cute jewelry, I had to take a little somethin' somethin' home with me. A special thanks to Kara for the cute headbands too. Ryan had to finally drag me out at 9:30 to head back to Mesa. Ryan didn't want to leave either, but we had to leave his parents' house by 6:00 in the morning to make our flight in time. It sucked that we weren't able to play cards. We'll have to do it the next time we see the Olsens.
Thanks Jeannie and Kyle for spending time with us. We had so much fun! We sure have missed you guys. We can't wait to see you again.

The Freaks Come Out At Night
The front of Spencer's costume holds candy so he didn't have to take a bucket. It was a nice addition.
My little door greeter. Cora helped me hand out candy. She was a big helper.

Photo Shoot
I took Cora in to get her "6 Month" pictures taken, even though she is actually 7 months old. Oh, well. We went to Kiddie Kandid and they, like always, did a good job. Cora was hilarious though. She did not want to smile! She wasn't crying or anything, she was just wanting to play with the props. I was definitely tired when the event was over. Oh, do you like the headbands I "made"? I bought the headbands at Target in the hair section for little girls. Then I bought flowers and hot glued them on to pins. I then can interchange the flowers and headbands. Yep, that is as crafty as I get. I am sure not going to sew anything. :)

Family "Fun" Night
Carter was Wolverine (from X-Men), Jarin was Spiderman and Spencer was Thomas.
Nice Jack-O-Lantern, Spencer.
Here is our tired Tinkerbell and our tired Ryan.

Pumpkin Patch
Wednesday was a such a nice day (in the 70's) that I decided it would be a nice day to go to the Pumpkin Patch. I called my friend Amy who has a little boy the same age as Spencer and we headed out. We ate some grub from McDonald's, went on an awesome hay ride, picked our pumpkins which were exchanged for smaller ones, and then went through the hay maze. I thought for sure Spencer would have taken a long nap, but no such luck! Oh, well!

Happy Birthday, Kris!
- Most of my funniest stories involve Kris (i.e. The Recreational Equipment Inc. Story and a lot of shopping stories).
- She is always up for a good time.
- She loves to shop, but really doesn't want to try on clothes (like me).
- She likes things (movies, books, etc) that are geared for teens (again like me).
- She loves food!
- She is hilarious!
- She understands sarcasm.
- She loves to quote movies.
- And, she usually says what I am thinking.
Love you, Kris, and I hope you have a great Birthday!

Jedi Birthday Party!
Sunday was Carter's Birthday but we had his party on Saturday. We had a Jedi Training Camp. I originally got the idea from Jeannie when she had her Incredibles Training Camp. I then came up with some of my own ideas and got some from the internet. The day started with an obstacle course to get their light sabers. We then had some lunch (pizza of course). We then headed back outside for "Distroy the Death Star" with water balloons. We came back inside and had light saber training (keep the balloon from hitting the ground). The kids thought then would be a good time to start combat training with each other. That was the funniest thing I have ever seen. The kids were pretending to die and rolling down the stairs. I was trying to get the cake ready so I didn't get a picture. (Dang it!) We then sang happy birthday and opened presents. We then ate cake and ice cream. The kids headed outside to have some more "combat training". Darth Vader came and the Jedi's defeated him!
It was a fun day and the kids were a blast! Happy 7th Birthday, Carter!

What a mom says in a day
A friend emailed this to me and I thought it was cute. I feel like say all of those things every day. Except for the ipod thing. That is, "You can't have an ipod until you can go without losing your gameboy for at least a week."

What I love about the Fall
The Harvest Moon. This year the Harvest Moon was on Ryan's birthday and I didn't have time to take a picture, to please forgive this picture. This year's Harvest Moon did not fail to impress me again. I love to just stare at it! I also appreciate that I have a perfect view of the rising moon out our upstairs window. I look at the world around me and see such beautiful things and wonder how anyone could not believe that God created this all. When I see how beautiful these things are, it makes me excited to see what it all will look like in the next life.
