Pumpkin Time

For FHE tonight we took the kids to the Hyde's pumpkin patch to let them pick out their very own pumpkins for Halloween. They had a lot of fun and actually picked their pumpkins out really quickly:) We came home and had Halloween brownies and pumpkin spice eggnog. Short and simple, but we love family night and spending time together:)

VIP in our family

Carissa started VIP and is loving it! She loves her teachers and is making so many new friends. She goes three times a week and is loving all the new things she is learning. I am excited for her to be able to have the same experiences the boys did. Carol and Laurie are so great!!

(Thanks for taking the pics Kim;)

Dance;)

Carissa has been so excited for dance to start again! She convinced her cousin it was pretty fun and they are in the same class this year and both loving it!!

New Dos

Baby and I got new hair-dos this past week. She looks so big! I was trying to put it off as long as possible, but she does not like her hair done so we had to cut some bangs. She looks adorable, (she was eating a sucker earlier so she added a few of her own polka dots to her outfit:) I love how her hair is naturally curly so it looks cute to just wash and got, or spray down the curls a little. Very low maintenance, but very cute! My change was not too drastice, but felt nice to get my hair colored and highlighted color without the purple blue tint and have a trim. Small change, but feels better.

Quinn Soccer 2010

Quinn just finished up his soccer season, uncle Ken was his coach and he loved it! He was so serious this year and would keep score in his head and get really upset when they lost, fortunately that didn't happen very often;)They had a really good season and had a great time!

1st Day of School

The boys had a great 1st week of school, they love their new teachers and have a lot of good buddies in their classes. The first day of school started off great seeing Grandpa in the parking lot when we firts pulled up. They were then met by Mr. May and got a brand new pencil to start the school year off with, they also got a hug from Mrs. Hutchinson, the P.E. teacher. They were excited to meet up with their best buddies Kalem and Jaystin and had to get a picture in front of the 100s board all together (since they are going to be on it A LOT this year, they informed me;) I had a great 1st week back too and am looking forward to finishing up school in the next few weeks and then student teaching in the spring! Carissa and Celeste are loving haning out at aunt Kim's during the day, things are going great and we are excited for the future:)!!!!

Fun with cousins:)

My Aunt Pam and cousin Alisha came for Matt and Megan's reception, it was a quick visit, but it was so fun to be with them for a short time. Alisha and I have kids really close in age and they all just gravitated towards eachother and became best buddies. It was so fun to watch them play, we so need to take a trip to Idaho to hang out again, too much fun!!
