The Big Night

I love Halloween!!!! I have always enjoyed Halloween night. I think a lot of why I loved it so much was that as a kid I got to stay up late on a school night. Plus free candy.... We had such a fun night. Jakob has never really been that interested in going around and getting candy but something changed this year. The minute we got to the trunk or treat we couldn't stop him. He even asked us if he could go around the neighborhood and trick or treat. James and I thought he would last for maybe 15 minutes. But 2 hours later we were still going. James and I decided that he had enough candy. But he didn't agree we literally had to pick him up and carry him home screaming "Just one more house" So we had a successful night and a lot of fun.

Be-lated Halloween Update

My younger sister Kelsey invited us to her wards Trunk or Treat on Tuesday. So we got to go trick or treating a day early the boys had so much fun.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

I hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween.

Halloween Party

The boys had so much fun at our ward Halloween party on saturday. Jakob chose to be a knight this year so automatically Kaeden was made a dragon.

Spending time fishing

James has been taking Jakob fishing. Jakob loves it he comes home so excited. They ended up catching 3 fish this time.

Best Halloween book

I got this book for Jakob last year. I read it to him every Halloween. I think I found it funnier than he did. It is such a reminder for me of what I remember about Halloween as a kid. If you haven't read it yet you need to get it.

Back in the groove of things

I have been so busy these past two weeks. We finally found a place to call our own. And I have been trying to get my life back in some kind of order. So now that all the boxes are unloaded and things all have their place. I can begin to get back to the normal routine around here. Well the other day we attended a fundraiser for the YWCA which helps women of domestic abuse. They held it at the Hollywood Connection as you can see the boys had a lot of fun. This was the boys first time roller skating.

Fall is here

Some of my favorite things about fall approaching
-The cold weather
-The warm clothes
-The holidays approaching
-The smell of the crisp air
-The trees changing colors
Most people don't enjoy the cold weather or the rainy days during fall, but there is nothing better than being able to get in your pajamas curl up on the couch with a blanket wrapped around and watching movies and drinking hot chocolate.

I LOVE FALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

State Fair

Jakob and Kaeden excited to go to the state fair.

Captain Jakob pointing the direction that we should go to get into the State Fair.

Jakob found one of his ship mates enjoying the fair.

Kaeden hangin out.

Must Read

If you haven't read this book you need to. I just finished reading it and I loved it.
It had me laughing 99.9% of the time. I love how honest and truthful this book is about motherhood.

Doing so much, so little time

Well we have been up to a lot of stuff. I've been so busy. James is really enjoying his job he works for VCBO Architeture Co. He is in charge of their Marketing Department. We have been doing a lot with family. We just recently went to the Greek Festival and it was so much fun. We have never been and thought we should check it out. I think the boys enjoyed the greek dancers the best.
