BRA-HA, and SARAH

This last week the little girl (not so little now) from New York that I used to nanny came out to visit. She is all grown up and is a freshman in college now.

We spent a few days in Vegas.....saw a magic show, and went on the game show "Lets Make A Deal". We also spent a few days exploring Southern Utah....

The highlight of the trip...was Odessa wearing my bra...and singing..."I'm wearing a Bra, BRA-HA!"

DISENYLAND!

We just returned from Dinsey Land with our daughter Odessa and had a blast.

The long lines and tired feet was worth it.

I was really surprised in what Odessa like! She LOVED the rollercoaseters and splash mountain. A year ago, she would have left in tears from those rides, but she had a such a good time. AND of course she was so excited to meet the princesses, especially Tiana, who she was so happy that was there!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

A FEW PICTURES OF OUR HALLOWEEN WEEK!

Pumpkins!

Odessa, Addison and I headed down to Stahlei farm in St. George last Friday, to get a pumpkin in their pumpkin patch....unfortunatley I did not bring my camera, or my phone, so I was unable to get pictures of the tractor ride, or the pumpkin patch....that didn't have much of a selection anways!-Odessa had to carry the pumpkin out, so I told her she had to pick one that she could lift....needless to say we only got a four pound pumpkin that is a little lopsided!

We decided that we would carve pumpkins for Family Home Evening tonight....

We had some friends come over with their little girl for the activity too!

We ate pizza, and set out to work. Odessa and Adam did most of the work while I fed Addison.

I think they did a pretty good job for the pumpkin we had!

Here are some pictures of our pumpkin carving FHE!

Salt Lake City Trip

We have been very busy in Cedar City the last couple of weeks- with lots of visits from family and friends, preschool starting, gymnastics starting, volleyball in full swing, Shakesperean plays, dentist appointments, and just daily life....it is nice to get away from all the hustle and enjoy some time up in Salt Lake with my family and friends.

Adam is out of town (as usual) so I decided to take the kids up to my parents for a mini labor day getaway.

I have enjoyed the help with the kids, and I think my parents and my sister have enjoyed playing with the kids.

Noey and Odessa played in leaves, made tacos, and watched movies together.

Addison-well he slept and cooed and giggled a lot....which is always fun to be around.

I was able to take a break last night from the kiddos and go to dinner with two great friends last night. We went to Tepenyaki (sp?) which was was YUMMY! I left my father in charge of the kids- The picutre is what happened when I left him in charge...........

I had a great stay, but it is back to Cedar City in a few hours!
