Doesn't this just make you want to smile!

Trunk or Treat

Last night was trunk or treat. Cory was so good. I haven't been feeling well the last few days so he took the kids got costumes dressed them up and took them to the ward Halloween party. Addie is actually going to be a China Girl and wear her dress her dad got her from Korea. But I guess she saw the princess stuff and had to have that. Keller is at the age that he wants to be "scary" so he is the grim reaper. And Preston who has changed what he wants to be about a billion times ended up choosing a Nija. What fun!

Reading Herself To Sleep

A few weeks ago Addie was having a not so good day. Just one of those grumpy days. We couldn't get her to take a nap even though I know that would have made all the difference. While staying here at her "nana's" house Addie has an unlimited supply of books! Her nana buys them and has tons already here. Addie sat in a corner and helped herself. As long as she was happy I wasn't going to mess with her. But I did notice it was getting a little to quiet. And anyone with a toddler knows what that can mean. I peek over and this is what I see!

She was out cold!

A Big Step for MOM!!

Along with the fun girls weekend. Cory's sister has been trying to get me to cut Addison's hair (she is a hair dresser). She has told me that if I cut Addie's hair it will grow faster and thicker. This was very VERY hard for me. It's my first girl and my baby still. But after talking to several other people and hearing all the same thing I finally agreed. Addie had a blast. She thought she was so beautiful and just kept smiling at herself in the mirror. Cami made the first cuts and decided that they needed to go shorter. So, I had to leave the room. But seeing the finished product she looks so cute!

Don't you agree!

Girl's Fun Weekend!

This weekend was the opening of the Deer Hunt. Well it is a tradition that all the guys go to Strawberry (a lake) and camp for the whole weekend. The girls all got together and went out to my sister in laws house and just chilled the whole time. It was so nice. We watched movies talked laughed (alot of laughing while my sister in law had taken an ambien) and curled ribbon for hair bows. Addison and her cousin Lilly who is 4 months younger had so much fun. They did get to a point that they got tired of each other. Addie and Lilly would want the same toy and Lilly would grab Addie's hair or shirt and just stand there and look at us. While Addie cried and yelled to let go. It was really hard not to laugh. After Addie's hair cut she kept pretending to comb and style Lilly's hair.We have decided it is going to be an annual thing like the Deer hunt.

Movin' On Up.. To the West Side!

I didn't think this day would come. Well, it hasn't officially yet. But, we have decided on our house. And we have a close on the 24th. But we may push it back a week or so, so that they can finish the basement. It's a brand new home in Hooper.(Layton/Syracuse area for you guys that don't know where Hooper is)
The school is almost directly behind our house and again there are 27 kids Preston's age just in the primary for 8 yr olds. They have to have 3 classes! This right now is the only picture that I have. But I will get more later. Thank you for all your prayers and help.
