Halloween Party

A few of us friends got together for a Halloween Party. It was fun to see everyone in their costumes and to let the kids run around and play. Here are a few pictures. (don't laugh to hard!=))

Here's all of us. Yes, that is what Caitlin did all night. Not a happy camper!

Here are all the girls. You've gotta love the 80's royalty!

Kim and Cory as Nepoleon and Deb. Love the fanny pack and moon boots!

And Michelle and Todd as a baker and a bun in the oven! It was cute. She really does have a bun in the oven. Hopefully it will be here soon!

Fun Weekend

We had a fun time this past weekend. My sister from Arizona was here visiting. She came down here on Thursday and we just hung out and then we went up to my mom's for the weekend. The girls had lots of fun being with their cousins. It had been way too long since we'd seen them. I hadn't seen my little niece and she is 8 months. I couldn't get enough of her and her chubby cheeks. I have such wonderful sisters and I hate that we all live so far apart, but it makes it that more fun when we do get together. Thanks for coming to visit Chels! We love you guys!

This is grandma reading bedtime stories to the kids. It only lasted about 5 minutes, but they thought it was pretty cool!


Brooklyn loved to hold Aaron and Quincee loved playing with Brynlie. They were all so cute!

Grandma and grandpa had the kids come out and pick everything out of the garden since it was going to snow. They loved it.

Brynlie and Aaron. Aaron had no idea what was going on and in this next picture all Brynlie wanted to do was suck on his head. It was so funny!

This is the group of cousins minus Caitlin and Jonah, who were busy taking naps!


Then on Sunday Brian was able to baptize and confirm one of his students. Me and the kids went with him. Quincee loved it and Caitlin cried because she didn't want daddy to get in the water and then all day today she's been saying that she doesn't want to get baptized. I hope she grows out of it by the time she turns eight!

This video is especially for Chelsea. Caitlin loves to sing High School Musical(not that you can understand her) and she kept singing it to Chelsea and we never got video of it. So I had her do it so I could record it.

Pretty awesome, I know! During the summer Caitlin would wear nothing but a swimming suit. Then she went through a phase where it was fun to wear those cool cowboy boots. She is such a funny girl and always keeps us laughing.

Happy Birthday Brian

Friday was Brian's birthday. We went up to Tooele right after school on Friday, so the girls and I decided to make a cake and celebrate his birthday last night. Those of you who know Brian know how wonderful he is and I am so blessed to have him as my husband. He is absolutley the best. He is the best husband and father anyone could ask for. Life has been so crazy since he started back to school, but you will never hear him complain. Maybe that's because I do enough for both of us.=) He's so loving and caring. I don' t know what I would do without him. Happy Birthday Bri. We love you!

Here's some recent pictures of Aaron. Such a sweet boy!

Aaron's Blessing

Aaron was blessed yesterday. It was such a wonderful day!! Both of our families came down to be with us. Brian gave Aaron such a beautiful blessing. He is such a good dad. Aaron was so good too. He's been my best baby. I hope he stays that way. Thanks to our families for coming. They had to leave so early to be here by 9 a.m. and we appreciate it so much. We both have such wonderful families and love them so much. Thanks to everyone!

My family. My brother Jason and his wife, Kristin, and their two boys, Graham and Jonah. My mom and dad and my little sis Britt and her husband Josh. They came all the way from Seattle!! Okay so they just happened to be here for his brothers wedding, but we like to think it was just for us! We missed my other two sisters and their families, but hopefully we'll see you two soon!

Brian's family. His brother Geoff and his wife Heidi and their little boy Tucker and his mom and dad. Thanks everyone for coming!!

Aaron was all smiles after we got home. He is smiling so much and it is so cute. He has a cute little dimple just like Quincee!

4 Things I adore about my Husband?
1.how he makes me laugh!! Brian has the best sense of humor. I have to say that that is one of the first things that attracted me to him was how funny he was. A day never goes by that he doesn't make me laugh. Some might not always get his humor and that makes it that much funnier to me. Sometime I think he might just be funnier then me....!=)
2.The way he plays with the girls. Sometimes he can be just another kid. I love watching him do "girl things". He doesn't really have a choice, but he loves it. The girls are constantly wanting dad to play. I love hearing their squeals because daddy is tickling them. He's such a good dad!
3.how he finds time to do everything. Brian is a very hard worker. Now that he's gone back to school I've realized it a little more of what a hard worker he is. From putting all that time into his lessons, to staying up til the wee hours of the morning studying, just to wake up an hour or two later to hold a crying baby, church callings and of course finding the time to spend with us. And he never complains!
4.his knowledge of the gospel.That might sound funny, but I love it. Brian knows everything when it comes to the gospel(at least I think he does!). Of course he studies it for a living, and he absolutely loves it. But I am amazed at all he knows. I think he is absolutely the best!!
