Halloween Crazy

Well if you know me it's Halloween in September. I love this time of year the changing of the season. I love to decorate and change the house into fall decorations. I love starting it off with conference it was nice to sit and watch with my family. It is getting better every year because my kids are getting better at watching it. I love to hear about the growth in the church it is amazing. When I heard that there is a church built a day. I am so glad to part of this growing church. It was fun after to take a ride with the family up American Fork canyon to see the fall colors. I love being so close to the canyon.
Another thing we have been enjoying at our house is Nick's love for baking the last 10 weeks(Sunday) he has made the yummiest breads. And the most delicious Rasp. sweet rolls. This Sunday he just made the best bread it was 12 grain wheat bread it was to die for.
The last couple of weeks have been so much fun. I went with my friend Jami and her kids to Gardner Village a must at this time of year. My kids love the witchies. And we got to help Nick's parents move into their new home. It was so nice to help out. It is a beautiful place and they Love it.
We spent time up at Nick's sister Emmalee in logan for UEA. I went to Emmalee super Saturday and helped make some of her stuff. It was nice to meet some of the sister's in her ward. Emmalee did a lot and there was a bunch of fun things to do. I couldn't believe all the choices they had. Nick had all our kids and went to our land to plant fruit tree's. He tended all eight kids all day and he said it was easy. He truly is a good man. The kids have a lot of fun things to do up there.
This week I got to go do scarecrows with Bridger at his school it was so much fun to see him in school doing his thing. Then the next day I had a chance to go read to Kolby's class. He is a spaz.
Nick took me on a date that he planned all out. He took me to PF Chang's(I don't now how to spell that) it was my first time it was delicious, then we went to The Haunted Forrest. I was scared out of my mind I haven't done that sort of thing since high school. It has been a great couple of weeks.

Ginger the dog


Well we finally broke down and got the kids a dog. We've had her for about three weeks. The kids do a good job with her. Maddie takes her every morning at 7:oo for her walk except Sunday. I can't believe she hasn't missed one day. Bridger always takes her out before he leaves to afternoon kindergarten. Kolby was so scared at first but now he can hold the leash and take her for walks. Kate attacks her and ginger doesn't even mind. She gets into her bed and her and ginger just play. I guess so far this is great for my kids. Who Knew this would be such a good growing experience for them. And I'm glad she will only be a medium sized dog. My kids want to dress her up for halloween so she is going to have to deal with that.
