Pumpkin Patch


Maycie even found herself a princess

He is sooooo cute I just want to squeeze him!


Last night for family night we went to the pumpkin patch. All of the kids got to pick out their pumkins. Of course Maycie picked out a perfectly round nice pumpkin. Grayson choose the biggest one he could find, and Bradley got a little baby one because he couldn't lift any other ones. We can't wait to carve our pumpkins and go trick or treating. (really I can't wait until my kids stop asking, how many more days until trick or treating).

Hiking to Donut Falls

This weekend we went on our first adventure up the canyon for a little hike. Adam and I knew the kids would love it, so to prepare Adam made the kids little treasure maps that would help them find the treasure on our hike. Grayson was so funny, as we were hiking he said "Mom, do we need to look for spectacle bears?" my first thought was what the hell is a spectacle bear, anyway that is what Dora the Explorer tries to find when she goes hiking it made me laugh. My other favorite part of the hike was watching Bradley climb up the entire trail by himself, he refused to hold my hand or let me carry him. When we stopped to look at the river (and throw in a few rocks, this was Adams favorite part) Bradley would get so excited just watching the water...So we made it to the top of the trail and saw the falls. It was so pretty! Not more than 10 feet down the trail on our way back Bradley slipped in the mud and face planted, he was totally covered! He cried for a minute and then was fine as soon as I told him he could now play in the water and wash himself off. As we headed down the trail we noticed 2 hikers in the bushes signalling us to be quite and to stop. My first thought was oh great there is a bear, but we soon found out that about 10 feet away was a mom moose, 2 babies, and a male. Thank goodness we were right at a pivotal point in the trail that we could take a dirt road that would lead us back to the parking lot. As we hiked back Adam remembered that we had tucked away some money in one of the tree stumps along the trail for the kids to find as there treasure, oh well we tried right? It was a great day, I love fall I love the crisp air and I love spending time with my family!

Our Fun Weekend!


"Our Prom Picture"

We had lunch with all of the boys from discount.

It was so nice to feel refreshed after a night with no kids!

We bought bradley a goldfish LED light and he loves it

Papa and Bradley dancing in the backyard!!!

We had a fun weekend. Adams company had a work party at the Hilton. We stayed there on Saturday night, and had a ton of fun. Thanks to my parents and Kym for taking care of my kiddos, unfortunatly this night only made us want to go on like a week long vacation, we even told eachother we don't really care where we go, just somewhere with no Dora the Explorer playing in the background and now that is has gotten cold we want to go somewhere warm.

The Cabin






We went to the cabin a few weeks ago and had a great time. The kids love to ride on the Rhinos. We went to the pond where Adam caught a little frog. My favorite pictures are the ones that Maycie took of her cousins and grandpa. We love going to that cabin, we have made some great memories there!

Happy Birthday Bradley!!!




My buddah turned two today and it was a realization that I no longer have any babies. We had a little party with grandparents and sisters but nothing big. Anyone who has been to our house knows that anymore than 8 or 10 adults is a full house. I made Bradley a Go Diego cake and he loved it! He got presents and he ate lots of pizza. As a finale Kym and Adam sucked helium from balloons and the kids thought it was so cool. Grayson for the rest of the night talked in a voice that sounded like he had sucked helium it was really funny. I think it was a great night we all had fun!
