Boo!

Me and the kids made some Halloween cookies tonight. Fun city! They all got to help. Which means they all got covered in chocolate. But thats the best part right?? If anyone remembers, these are the same kind of cookies that we made for Valentines Day. Just Halloween style. :) They are super easy. Just oreos dipped in chocolate...Mmm....

My parents are swell. OK, I know, I've mentioned them in the last 2 posts, but really, they are swell. My mom is constantly taking care of me. Always looking for something to do that would make my life easier. I LOVE it. I don't think she knows how nice it was to not have to do a single dish the whole weekend. She's also always saying things that make me feel like I am succeeding as parent and a person. So sweet... Olivia helped Gma make and bottle chili sauce (I helped about 2% of the time)from all of my tomatoes.

My dad is swell also. I love being around him. He is always making me laugh! He is also always helping to better my home, even when I don't ask him! I showed him a picture of a bookshelf I wanted to build (from walmart.com), so off Jake and Dad went to the home depot. I headed off to women's conference, and when I came home it was done! Yes, yes, he's amazing. I love it!
Thanks Mom and Dad. You are wonderful parents and grandparents. I sure love and appreciate you guys... wanna move in?!

Isaac in NINE! We went bowling while my parents were here and Isaac had a few friends come too. Good times! These pics aren't the best, but it was a lot of fun! Jake won, but Gma was a close second only 2 points behind! We won't even mention what MY score was. I think Wii bowling ruined me!

Soccer Season

Grandma and grandpa got to come see Isaac's last soccer game.
Grandpa and Logan made a robot costume for Halloween!

Randomness

Olivia somehow got skipped over when I was putting school pics up. This is her first day of preschool. So here she is in all her cutie patootie glory!



This is a picture of our newly refinished wood floor that Jake and I worked our watooskies off on! It turned our beautifully, but man did it take a lot of time!





Me: Kailey Rose get your finger out of your nose!
Rosey: (in an authoritative tone) Mom, I'm tired. I nuggle my nose!

As you can imagine, this has become a favorite phrase in our house. So Kailey, now we have proof that you like to 'nuggle' your nose :)

Da Moon

Rosey: Mom! Moon!
Me: Ya, theres the moon!
Rosey: Mom I'na hode it. I'na hode da moon.
Me: (heart melting)you can't honey, its too far away.
Rosey: look mom one more moon!
Me: thats a star
Rosey: Oh. Twinkle twinkle little star?
Me: Yes, thats right.

Man oh man do I love this little girl. (yes, I am copying Lisa's conversation theme post :)

Navajo Lake 2009

So we went camping up at Navajo Lake up our beautiful Cedar Mountain. It is one of our favorite places to go because it is so quiet and beautiful and has an AMAZING hike! The last couple times (as my family will remember!) the path was covered with trees, but they cleaned it all up and it was splendid. LOVE the view. So breathtaking. We stayed the last weekend it was open for the season and it was free! I am ALWAYS a fan of free.:)
We had such a fun time camping in grandpa Joe's 5th wheel trailer. We will definitely do it again! It was so nice to get out of town and away from all the busy-ness of the day to day stuff. We laughed, played and relaxed a lot. Good times!


We have carved the year every time we come up here. So far we have 04,06,07,09.
