Girls Night Out

So I was talked into going to the Midnight show of Harry Potter!!

It was a fun and a crazy evening! I have so much homework right now so I brought my lap top and was writing and doing homework while we soicalized!

We headed to the theatre at around 10:30 pm, got our snacks and went to go in when they wouldn't take our tickets, we went and talked to the manager and sure enough we went to the wrong theatre!!!! They said the other theatre would allow us to take our snacks- so we got back into the cars and drove to the correct theatre!!

It was a fun night and a pretty good movie!

Thanks Heather, Jen, and Ursala for talking me into it!

I needed a break- the last two- three weeks of school get really stressful for me!

I am making progress- turned in two big assignments today!!

Now 5- 6 more due next week!

Then Finals!

Wish me luck!!!!!

All I want for Christmas....

Is my FRONT TEETH!!

Another lost tooth!!!

During Stake Conference Jenna's front tooth started bleeding. It was hanging there and she wouldn't let me pull it!! We made it to on the way home, I was sitting next to her and reached over against her will and pulled it out- She didn't even realize I had gotten it!! She is so funny!!

I love to see the Temple...

So blessings come in all shapes and sizes and this one came at the poor expense of my dad! My parents had planned a trip to the Temple last weekend for Friday night and Saturday Morning! My dad ended up sick and not feeling up to going. My mom really wanted to go so she asked if me and the kids wanted to go. I said sure! So we went down friday early evening and made it right around 7:30- I dropped my mom and the kids off at the hotel I went on to the temple!

The next morning I spent the time with the kids and my mom went to the Temple.

Before we headed back we took the kids by the temple and walked around! It was a neat experience and Wonderful weekend. I am so thankful for my family and for the blessings of the Temple. It was also nice to get away for a little bit and right before all the real stress of school started!!

We had a real nice time talking and walking around!
Can you tell the kids packed their own suitcase? They got ready while I was in class.
They are both such good kids and I am so proud of them and who they are becoming. They are both well behaved, helpful, independent, and they want to do what is right!


Peyton had to take a picture of me!!


I love that we are an eternal family!
I am so thankful for the opportunity I have to be a mom!!
It is the greatest thing I can do and be!!!

An Indian Summer Day

I have not blogged in awhile due to the end of the semester!! While Diane was still here we had a few really nice days, one day after I got home from school Laura, Diane, and I took the kids to the park for an afternoon and it was a beautiful day!! We had such a great time!!

Miss you tons already Diane and Addy!!

It is a really cool park in Wadsworth!

Aunt DiDi

I love fall time! And is wonderful to enjoy a beautiful fall day with a little bit of warm weather!

Jenna's Birthday!

Jenna is spoiled- I know. While the whole family was together we wanted to celebrate Jenna's birthday and with Loni we wanted to do a girls day out!! What is more fun than to get your nails painted! We had a good time and it was fun for me and Becky to hang out!

We had a family dinner and then cake and Ice cream!!

Loni decorated Jenna's room for her- she loved it!!

Jenna was woken up on her birthday with breakfast in bed!!!

This is her new outfit to wear to school! and then her cool new shoes!!

Jenna said she had the best birthday ever!! I made cupcakes for her to take to school!! And she got a "smart card" at school for helping!!! My little girl is growing up!!!!!

Cousins

What a treat it has been to have all the cousins together. I have so many memories of playing and growing up with my cousins. I love how they are all close in age. I have been so excited to have Addie here since she is at such a fun age and can play with the kids!!

I love that we got a pretty decent picture with 7 kids!!!

None of these were posed!!!

They are playing parade- SO CUTE!!

She comes down stairs like this- I laughed out loud!!!!!

Loni played Big Sis to Addie!!

This is my favorite. We were eating desert and we caught Addie feeding Megan. We took it away then found Megan following Addie and gathering up any crumbs Addie left behind!!

Kids are so fun! I love every stage!! It has been such a joy to have all the cousins together. Loni and Morgan couldn't stay to long. And Diane has been staying at Laura's so we haven't had as much time as I would like- but, it has been a treat with the time we have had!!!!

Boo at the Zoo

We had a very Happy Halloween!!

Diane flew into town Thurs. night and Becky and her family came into town, so we were all together. Thurs we trick or treated in Laura's neighborhood. The picture is all the cousins plus one! Our friend Jack joined us!

Then Saturday night we did Boo at the Zoo!!

We had such a great time!!!

Morgan is Robin Hood and he tipped his hat.


I love these silly girls!!!

Miss Addie is a very girlie giraffe!

The two Maid Marrians!

We got lots of goodies!

We rode on the new carousel!

Thank you Skipper!

"BOO!"
