{Pumpkin Walk, Ward Carnival, Crazy Hair Day}

The other day Sienna's class went to the pumpkin

walk on a field trip and I was able to go along.

Adyson went that weekend with friend and told

Sienna how fun it was, so she was very excite to go!

She was in awe of all the displays,
especially liking the Sunny Patch and Tangled,
and Angry birds. Naturally.

It was so much fun spending the day with
my little Roo. I've adored spending
half the day with her before she goes to school
and hope this year crawls by because I don't
want it to end!Tuesday we had our annual ward carnival.
The ladies love it because it's their first chance
to unveil their costumes.
This year we have
An angel...
and a Devil.
Let it be known that each of my kids
is really half and half...but this will do.

Sienna felt awfully pretty, and was awfully sparkly.

Adyson was feeling very cute, and spunky.

Can you tell?

The carnival was fabulous.
They had usual donut on a string.And pumpkin decorating.

We had a great night and can't wait
for the actual Holiday to come!

Today was Crazy hair day at school.
We went big.
And crazy.

The pictures just don't do it justice.
It was huge!

I just love these ladies of mine!

{Unloading the Camera}

Okay...
the mojo is still missing,
but I will blog

mojoless, just so i can catch up!

I unloaded the camera and here are a few things I found.

An apology note from Adyson to a friend.
I had to take a picture of it when it happened
because I died laughing at the way she spelled
idiot.
We can't help but say
'idiet' now.
Oh it's cute stuff.
Try not to be
'really big idiet's' if you can.

Last weekend we went to the Kidman's
house to celebrate Larry and Ron's B-days.
The kids had a blast decorating Halloween Cookies
with Grandma.
Sugar anyone?
We were able to have Rheagen over
for a bit the other night.
The girls fought over her for a good
chunk of the time!
Nothing better then a picnic with cousins.And this weekend we have been excited for
for quite a while.
Kutter's baptism, which meant a
whole weekend in Mountain Home.
The ladies couldn't sleep for days
in anticipation.
They were sooo excited!

First stop, out to dinner to
celebrate Kutter and Heather's Birthdays.
Fun was had by all.

These two still are inseparable.
They didn't leave each others sides.

And neither did these ladies.
Hams, they are. Hams.

Tray, sure love that kid.

And Breje, beautiful as ever.

I adore her.

Heather and I.
Yes, one of us needs a bang trim....
Hint: it's me.Don't be jealous of the hot couple.
We can't help it.Part of the thrill of going to the Wolfleys house
(also known as the farm),
is the animals and the motorbikes.
Poor Jody gets hounded by the girls
constantly for rides.

Ens and Ellie.
Best of friends.Saturday was spent preparing for the main event.
Aren't they beautiful all dressed up?

And the man of the hour.

He's about the most handsome little person I know.
And his baptism was beautiful.
We are so happy for him, and proud of him.

What a great kid he is!

My mom makes a special book for
the kids on their baptism.
Here are the kids admiring Kutters.
Adyson can't wait till she gets hers!Then it was home for more playing,
which naturally included dressing up as
cheerleaders. It was a great weekend
and we are so happy to have had a little family time!
We sure missed Cody and Amy and their kids though!
Next time...

PS, if you don't read the C blog, Trav is having scan on Thursday.
Cross your fingers for us?

Mojo.

My Goodness life is busy!

To those of you inquiring why I've

lacked in the blogging department...

we are fine.

I've just lost my mojo.

Anyone care to find it for me?
Let's cross our fingers that I will
find it....

{This Goon & #3 & #33!}

Hallelujah!
The pesky summer checklist is done!
Yes, I know...fall is here, but still.
It's done!

We finished #3
(Cutting down flowers and putting them in vases in their rooms).
No pictures. Sorry.

And #33.
Lagoon!!
Saturday was ICON Lagoon Day,
and the ladies have been patiently waiting for it to come.
Last year when we went as we were walking
through the parking lot to buy our tickets
Sienna exclaimed very excitedly,
"I LOVE THIS GOON!
Since then, Lagoon is only called
this goon.
And the ladies still love it.

The weather wasn't fabulous this year
and it rained for the first hour we were there,
but the ladies didn't mind.

They were just so excited to be there,
and we were so proud of how brave
they were!
Rickety Roller Coaster. check.
Fire Dragon-check.
Spider-check.
We didn't quite make it to Wicked...
next year.

It was great having the ladies tall enough to
go on rides together, while we watched from the sidelines.
We aren't big fans of those spinning rides-
cause, well we are old.
But they did love them, and were thrilled
that Selena Gomez was playing while on
the Music Express.
Yes, another picture taken of T and I,
by T and I.
He does love the camera.

It really was a great night.
No lines, lots of ride
and very happy ladies!

{As of Late}

My Goodness life is busy!
I had forgotten that when school begins..
homework begins.
And Dance class.
And Tavaci.
And Piano.
And I'm sure we've only just begun.

Here's a glimpse of what we've been up to.

Sienna and I joined Ads for lunch the other day.
She was very excited to see us....
and then chatted with her new best friend Kate
and ate as fast as she could so she could get to recces.
We felt very appreciated!
(Really, so glad she is loving school
and isn't homesick for me......at all.)

We packed up last weekend and headed

to Park City for a little getaway.

We walked around Main Street

Friday night and ate dinner and then made a stop

at the Chocolate Factory for dessert.

And for breakfast Saturday morning...

T and I looking completely smashed.

We drove around the city for a bit
and then surprised the girls with the
Alpine Slide and Mountain Coaster.

They were nervous!

(Before we headed up the lift).
They made us promise we would use the brakes,
a lot.

And then as soon as we started going down the slide

they both wanted to go FASTER!

It was a complete blast.

The ladies laughed the entire way down.

After shot...aren't they cute?

Here we are headed up the coaster.

They adored this too,

it as just so much fun!

They asked right about here if we could go
a few more times.
Love taking these ladies to do new things.

The girls got out their flower box out the other day
and attacked poor dad while he was trying to relax.
I think he looks FABULOUS though...don't you?And lastly, Roo decided she wanted straight hair
for school the other day.
I think she looks lovely.But I adore her curls! Adore I say!
This week we are finishing off the last 2 items on our
summer checklist.
Better late then never!

{9}

Today Trav and I are celebrating our 9th anniversary.
9 years!
How are we celebrating-you ask?
Well, T is working all day.
Then golfing for his mens association.
And he'll return at 6:45.
And I will leave at 6:50 for Young Womens.

We might smooch around 10.

Now, maybe it sounds like I'm complaining...
but I'm really not.
I love our beautiful, and sometimes chaotic life.
We've built it together.
And it's full.

And sometimes I really can't believe my luck.
Life is just so good.

{Kindergarten}

Little Roo started Kindergarten today.

I'm unsure how she is old enough for this.
She's my
BABY!

But she was ready, that's for sure.
Adyson started a week ago
and it's been rough for Sienna to have to wait.
We had a countdown.
And lots of jealous tears.Most of which were caused because she wanted
to wear her new back to school clothes.
She does look adorable, yes?Last Year

This Year.

I'm gonna miss spending so much time with her.
She is really such a sweet tenderhearted kid
with a BIG personality!
She is always dancing, bouncing, and willing to play.
She's a smart kid and is gonna love this year!
