Halloween!!

I just had to put this picture on so you can all see how chunky she is getting!

All ready to go TRICK-OR-TREATING!!

Halloween Fun!!

Every Halloween we carve pumpkins and we decorate halloween cookies. So Monday night we carved pumpkins -except for Gavin. He wanted to paint his. Mackenzie even carved hers all by herself! Then today, Mackenzie had her friend Hannah ride the bus home with her and they decorated their cookies. It was alot of fun!

Gavin, ready to go to his halloween party at pre-school. He is going to be a firefighter. Mackenzie still hasn't decided what she is going to wear.

Too Cute!

Avery likes to be wherever I am. She likes to be held most of the time and if I'm not holding her, she at least wants to be able to see me. When I shower, she sits in the bouncy chair next to the tub. She won't go to bed until I do. Her bassinett ( ??I have no idea how to spell it) is right next to my bed. I dont have to hold her or touch her, she just has to know that i'm there or she won't go to sleep. When I cook, she sits in her bumbo chair on the kitchen floor. Today I was making dinner and she fell asleep in her chair. She just looked so cute that I had to take a picture.

Family Pictures 2008

We went to Ogden to get our family pictures taken and just our luck, it snowed the night before. We decided to get them done anyway. We managed to find a couple spots that weren't covered in snow and even though the kids were freezing, we got some pretty good pictures. Thanks Amanda!

Are you sure it's still October??

Can you believe this? It's October 11th and it's a blizzard outside! It has been off and on all morning and the forcast says that we will have 4 to 8 inches by tomorrow morning. I think I want to move to St. George!

I just love my kids. My life would be so empty without them. They make me laugh everyday. The other day I was holding Avery and Gavin walked up to me. He looked down at Avery, and got a discusted look on his face and said in an irritated voice "I wanted a boy one of those, not a girl one".

The kids have been begging me to put the pictures of them with Dallas's deer on so here they are!
