Trunk or Treat





My mother-in-law had a trunk or treat birthday party for Cam's Grandma this year it was so fun. The kids loved it and it was so nice to see the family it has been so long:) Happy Halloween!

What to Do

The last few weeks Makinley has decided she doesn't want to be in her diaper any more! She started to take it off in the day. At night she was only taking off her diaper when she didn't have on a onsie. Now she takes off the onsie and her diaper at 2:00 in the morning.




We decide to potty train her and she has been doing really well:) On Sunday we had her in her cute new Tinkerbell underwear and she was playing with Kyler and all of the sudden she ran into the bathroom yelling potty, potty. I ran in after her put on the potty and she went pee all by her self we had a little piddle on the floor because I didn't make in time. Really thought that is way more then I expected:)

Zoo Days




Last week was Kylers field trip to the Zoo. I went with his class, we walked there from his class. I was with 6 boys and two other moms. Holy crazy! It was sooo fun I loved to see Kai with all his friend at school he was such a good listener and they had so much fun.

Las Vegas

Our friends Brooks and Laura got a job offer in Las Vegas, they invited us down there with them to look at close by areas to see if it is somewhere they would like to live.


This was our first vacation without our children and the first sleep over Makinley has had. I was way better then I thought I didn't sleep at all the night before but only cried a little bit when we left:)


Laura and I thought this guy was so cool we had to get our picture with him he was sprayed painted in bronze and at first we didn't know if he was real or fake.


We are at the Belagio garden which I think are so beautiful.

We had such a fun weekend and I loved the suburbs out side of Vegas I thought it was very clean and I could totally live there. Congrats Brooks for all your hard work, and thank you so much for letting us tag along on the start of your families new adventure:)

The Cabin

We have been trying to make it up to Cam's family cabin for a few weeks but life seems to be way to busy for us to make it up there. This weekend with it being Conference it worked out great:) To add the leaves are so beautiful right now and the animals are still out like crazy.




This Moose was standing right out side the cabin the kids loved to see him run by.



After we got up there we went on a little walk, you can't tell me this is not pretty.




And of course all good thing must come to an end, we woke up to a huge snow storm at about 7 am so we packed up and left before we got snowed in. Ha Ha Ha
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Jamie for this beautiful place so that we can enjoy this wonderful experience with our family:)

Spoild


Kyler shooting off his rocket!
One of the three bounce houses

We moved up to the U family housing last summer. When Cam and I came up to look at the apt. before we moved in I went to the car by my self and cried.I didn't want Cam to know because I was trying to be supportive and do what need to get done so Cam could finish school asap! Since we have moved up here I have learned to NEVER judge a book by its cover. All though my apt. has not been up graded since 1970 and I have no dishwasher, one bathroom that is smaller then most guess bath, and my washer and dryer are separated by a room. (the dry is also in Makinley's room) Cam and I agree that this is the funnest place we have ever lived. In the last year we have had: multiple movies,cheep lagoon tickets,really cheep raging water ticket, BBQ, and parties with bounce houses and lots of activities for kids. ALL for free with free food. Sat the U had a back to school bash when I realized that never in my life well we ever live somewhere that does so many things for us, nor will we ever meet such amazing fun giving friend like the ones we have gotten to know up here! I am so glad we have had the oppertunity to live here!
