Time to decorate!!






We decided to have family night on Sunday, so we could decorate for Christmas! The kids really loved putting on the ornaments and wearing the santa hats. It was a crazy time but we had fun making the house really festive!

My princess party!


I forgot to post this. I have been in a book club for almost three years (it has gone by fast). My book club read a book called the Princess Academy, and so to celebrate this book we had a princess party. The host Valerie even rolled out the red carpet! It was great time, and it was fun dressing up!

Happy Thanksgiving!



We spent the day at my parents house in Southern California! We hung out, watched football, played with cousins and ate some good turkey! Yum Yum! Of Course there is so much that I am thankful for. I am thankful for my family, they are amazing people to be around, I could not ask for better parents. Second I am thankful for my children and that I get to spend so much time with them. Third, I am the luckiest woman alive to have such an amazing husband. Fourth, I have the gospel and know that Jesus is my savior. sixth, I have amazing friends and I count my blessings that they are in my life. I just love this time of year, because I get to remember how I am truly blessed!

Gobble Gobble!!




Kayla has done some really cute things at school in the month of November. She made this really cute turkey, I love it. She also sang some songs at school. It was fun going to see her in her pilgrim hat and hear some fun songs.

Happy Halloween!





This year we had fun carving pumpkins. Kayla wanted a raccoon in a pumpkin, I did a witch stirring a pot, and Joe did a house with the phrase Happy Halloween. We had a good time dressing up and going trick or treating. Joe was "Joe from blues clues", I was a pirate, Kayla was a kitty, Danny was spiderman, and Jenna was Poohbear. The kids got a ton of candy, in fact, they said they had enough candy and were ready to be done. Overall, I think they had a fun night.

The Pumpkin Patch

Every year we take the kids to the pumpkin patch. We have a great time, the kids love riding the ponies. Only this year it almost cost 20.00 for all three of them. We might make a new tradition next year. We love looking at all of the pumpkins, animals and the fun things in the covered area. We let the kids pick some really small pumpkins, and I bought a gourd to decorate. Overall we had a good time.
