Fall- Favorite Season

We went up the canyon to check out the fall colors on the trees...It was so pretty. But I would say that in about another week or so every tree will be sooo colorful and beautiful. It is my favorite time of year. I love the varity of colors and the cooler breeze that comes along the fall season. I love it when there are different colors of leaves covering the trees and also the grass- like what the kids are sitting in... here are a few of the kiddos at a park up Provo canyon.

We converted!



We traded in our SUV Mercedes for an Honda! We converted to the MINI! I never thought I would- but I really do like them, so we had a great deal come our way and couldnt pass it up! It rides so nice and I really do LOVE my mini van.

Oh Dear what does Ashlyn have???? YUCK



I probably shouldnt post this, but it was so funny to see her with this... shes all happy to have that now... but just wait 15 years and she will never want to see one of those things again :)

Sleepy time...



I put both kids down for their naps and they fell right to sleep. Ashlyn has to sleep with a doll everytime. Its adorable to see her cuddle and hold on to a baby. Parker as well likes to have a toy with him when he goes to bed. Hey.. what ever works to get them in bed and to stay in bed...

Puppet Show...




Parker and his 2 girl friends, Alayla and Lavender, put on a puppet show for their moms. (Me and Christina) It was really cute- I had to capture a picture of it because they were so excited to do it. Christina and I just laughed at our adorable children :) and the stories they thought of. Children really do come up with the craziest things.

Family Pics at the Beach











We took family pictures at the beach, but I didnt want to post them until we sent pictures to our parents. My friend Jessica took them and she did a great job. The kids listened and other than the sun beating down on us we had fun getting our family pictures.
