Fall Fun

Saturday we raked the leaves and took a few pictures before bagging them up. Enjoy.

Halloween Party

We went to a church Halloween party on Saturday and here are the pictures. Rachel is Hermione, Christine a baby, Sarah an Ewok, Ben is our knight in shining armor and Cari is Violet Incredible. We had a lot of fun.

Quilt Square

I just finished a quilt square and am very excited about it. It is for a quilt for my Grandparents that my aunt is putting together. We were to make a square that represents us. I decided to do a drug theme. David and I are the bottle and the kids are various anti-depressants. Sarah is a Valium (if you have ever met Sarah, you would know why:) Mom, I will drop it in the mail ASAP.

Kids

Today Ben informed me that I was "ruining his life." Yes, he is only 3. I guess he listens to his sisters when they are sassy to me. The teenage years are going to be ugly! I gave him his "best day ever" when I let him go to his friend's house while I took Caroline in to JC Penny to get her pictures taken. She did really well and smiled and listened to direction. All her pictures turned out so cute. She wore a brown and pink dress that Marisa Hill gave her. I will try to post them when they come back. Back to laundry.

Daddy's girl

Here is Christine's new favorite place to read. She is perched on the new deck that David built in the front yard. It won't be long now until she will be moving her reading indoors.





We had Sarah's soccer party at McD last week. She received a medal for all the hard work. As her coach, I think that it is I that deserved the medal! It was fun, but lots of drama. I will be coaching Ben next year.

That's my girl!

Here's our Chubbers making a big reception in her sleep! She makes it look so easy! She must've learned football from her mama.

David decided to add to the blog. That is really how Caroline fell asleep the other night. Last football season she would cry when I yelled at the TV. This year every time she sees football on she yells GO! It is great. I am teaching my girls to love college football early. I am doing a college football pick'em with some guys from the ward. After 4 weeks, I am in the lead. It is great. I love football season!

Fall

The girls decided to dress alike for the 2nd day of school. They were tired this morning, but happy to be going back. I hope that they will sleep in on Saturday to catch up on sleep. There is a picture of Ben and Cari for those who haven't seen them for a while.

So, I have been in a real funk this week. We went to the beach on Monday and got the last bit of sun that we could and then it turned cold. I found this leaf at the bus stop while waiting for Sarah to get home (She was an hour late!). I guess that I am just not ready for the summer to be over. I hope that I snap out of this soon, or it's going to be a long winter!
