A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.

Swim Fun

While we were in Cali for Mimi's funeral, the weather decided to grace us with GREAT temps. A little warm for what we were use to, but the kids loved it! Grandma and Papa was nice enough...THANK YOU THANK YOU...to get the pool heater going, just to take the chill out of the pool. The kids couldn't wait to get in the pool. So here are some of the highlights of the swimming experience.

Getting ready for Halloween

Our Halloween this year was a little different. We got our house all set and ready for Halloween.

Keegan had fun helping me figure out the saying for our tombstones! Then of course we had to play dead next to his.

Then about a week and a half before Halloween my Grandma had a major stroke and passed away a week later. So So we had the priviledge of spending Halloween with Grandma and Papa in California.
The kids had a blast in the nice warm weather (it was 90!!.) We got to pick pumpkins in a Cali pumpkin patch.



Then we carved the pumpkins with Grandma and Papa. I don't have the finished product since the picture was taken with Papa's camera. Let me tell you though, all of the pumpkins turned out GREAT!


Grandma and Papa's ward had a HUGE truck or treat with a dinner that we went too. It was a complete and total success. The kids got a TON of candy and just had some good ole fun doing it.



Then we took them to our old haunting ground in Arcadia and did a little more trick or treating. We didn't last too long since babies were getting tired and mommy's and daddy's were getting tired too.


Overall I think Halloween was a big success. We had fun just being with my mom and dad even though it wasn't under the best of circumstances.
