Sewing project

Thanks to my most wonderful and amazing sister (seriously she is the best sister anyone could ask for) I made a bag for church. I couldn't have done it with out Jami's help, but I am proud of myself because I did sew it all together and learned a TON! I love how it turned out and it is perfect for church. Thanks Jami and I love you so much!!! Let do more projects!

 

Trunk or Treat!!!

Our ward did a trunk or treat and there was a great turn out. Tons of people came and Syd and Dawson were walking on clouds with the sight of so much candy. Syd of course was Rapunzel and Dawson was a dinosaur that walked around saying "ROARRRRRRRRR". They both were so stinkin cute. We tried to find a little green chameleon costume for Dawson, but couldn't find one any where. Oh well he still looked way cute! Halloween was a success this year and we all had a great time!

 

 

 

Halloween Party

Sydnee was Rapunzel for Halloween this year and of course she took advantage of dressing like a princess. She was in heaven. Her preschool party was a success and all the volunteers did a great job with games and activities and treats. The kids had a blast and they all were so cute.

 

 

 

 

Pumpkin Patch

For one of Sydnee's preschool field trips we went to a local corn maze and pumpkin patch. Sydnee and Dawson LOVED it, they couldn't stop smiling and laughing. Dawson was being so silly that day running through the corn maze looking for Sydnee. He would always being yelling "Sydnee where are you?", "Sydnee wait for mine!" And yes instead of say "Me" he says "mine" and I think it is so cute. I just can't believe and that he is talking in mostly complete sentences. They grow up WAY TOO FAST! We had so much fun and I loved all their smiles in these pictures.

 

 

 

Kids being kids

I just wanted to share their cute little smiles and personality!

 

MATOR!!!

In August sometime we decided to be an adventerous family and drive the 8 hour trip to see Brandon's brother and his wife in Blanding Utah. It was a blast and way too short, but we are so glad that we went down there to see them. We sure do miss them. On the way back home that Sunday we were driving thru a small little town and saw Mator from the movie cars. We had to stop and take pictures especially since Dawson loves that movie and loves anything with wheels. The kids thought it was pretty cool and Sydnee really wanted Mator to talk back to her. She was bummed, but used her imagination anyway.

 

 

 

 

Shoshone Falls

On our way to our Nebeker Family Reunion in Hagerman back in June, my amazing sister and her family and us stopped by Shoshone Falls and had lunch. It was so beautiful and there was so much water. The kids loved it. Sorry that Brandon was kind of cut off in these pictures, but they were taken with his phone so not the best, but keepers.

 

 

 

Hiking and Celebrating birthdays

 

Back in May of this year (yes I am WAY behind) we decided to go for a little hike. It was perfect for a family hike especially with young kids because it was paved, beautiful, and not too long. We had a nice little picnic and then came home so all of us could take naps. The kids loved it and it was the perfect weather and family outing. Another great thing is it is only minutes from our apartment. we will defiantly go there again when it starts to warm up.

 

so Dawson's birthday was back in July and I am such a huge slacker. I feel like a horrible mother, but I do remember that I was not feeling well that day due to this pregnancy so we didn't do much. It still was a fun day and even though he really didn't know that we were celebrating his 2nd birthday he sure loved his presents.

 

Now on to Sydnee's birthday. She turned 4 in August and knew very well that it was her day. She was so cute and loved all the attention on her. We didn't do big party's for either of our kids this year becuase I was still not feeling well due to the pregnancy so we kind of just kept it low key, but the kids didn't care and they had a blast. Speaking of birthdays, mine was in May and Brandon's was in June and we did nothing. I felt like a horrible wife, but I was so sick that I couldn't even leave the house afraid that I would get sick where ever we went. It was however our 5th year anniversary this June and that day I actually felt ok so Brandon and I went out to eat and then went grocery shopping without children. I know way lame, but it was time well spent with my amazing one and only. Love ya babe!
