As of late...

Halloween festivities are the best. My fam ventured down to Thanksgiving point this year to do Corn Bellys. My kids were entertained for hours! I didn't love the crowd and hobbling around big and pregnant, but other then that it was great!

Check out Cohen in the drivers seat. It was a huge fight to get him off, he was in heaven!

We LOVE Utah football games! This year we took Cohen to see his first game. He was entertained for 5 whole minuets! It was fun to spend one on one time with him though and in order to make it fair we took Halle to the Broadway musical Lion King:)

(sorry no pics) GNO to Pineview. As mentioned by many chicas, "what happens in Pineview, stays in Pineview"!

Fall Pictures

I am by no means a photographer, but I do like to take pictures and I LOVE Fall. So my sister Tracie and I headed to Memory Grove last Sunday to capture the kids in nature. All I can say is that photographers are very patient and talented because it is hard work to get good pictures. Here are a few of my fav. Cohen was in good spirits for about 5 min. After that, this was his permanent face..."when can we have our picnic...?"

Thanks Aunt Tracie!

quotes of the day

While we were driving in the car,

Halle: Mom, I finally figured out what I am going to be when I grow up

Mom: Yeah what?

Halle: I am going to work in a haunted house in a scary costume and scare people!

(a mothers dream)

Cohen: Yeah, and and and when I grow up I am going to work in a happy house and make people laugh and be silly!

Halle: Cohen there is no such thing as silly houses...(roll of the eyes)

Mom: smile

During story time with Cohen and Daddy

Chad: Once upon a time there was a pumpkin and he decided to plant some hay so he started to walk down the hill to...

Cohen: But Daddy, pumpkins don't have legs

Chad: Oh right..., so the pumpkin grabbed a shovel and started to dig some holes to plant the...

Cohen: But Daddy, pumpkins don't have arms

Quiet

I was in the bathroom getting ready for the day when all the sudden I realized that it was extremely quiet in my house. In fact I hadn't heard a peep for over 10 minuets. This is weird I thought...a little panicked. When I ran out to see what the kids were up to I was so amazed at what I found I had to snap a picture of it. Quietly coloring on the kitchen floor:) This is a first for Cohen who usually lasts one second with anything artistic. Anyways this quiet nice moment was my paycheck for the week!
