Ok, So I am finally blogging again. I've been trying for a while and it hasn't been allowing me to upload pictures, but it finally did. So here we go.

During the 1st week of October I got to go visit Ty, Erika, Carson, and Baby Zach in Arizona. It was a great time!!
I got lots of time to bond and play with Carson and meet baby Zach and spend time with him too.
We went to a pumpkin patch and had a great time!

Got to decorate a pumpkin with stickers!
This just wore out baby Zach!
And we went on a Tractor ride.
Then the next weekend McKell and Addi were able to come sleepover with me. I've been wanting to show them what me being at College really was and finally the perfect weekend came! We went to dinner with Mom, Kris, and the boys and then we began to play. We played games and went to a campfire a few of my friends were having and I showed them around Campus. They couldn't believe that my school had so many buildings
Here are the girls on the famous A. Don't worry they didn't become True Aggies ;-)
This is a funny statue that they wanted to take a picture with.
We also took some more fall pictures but for some reason they are uploading. So if you want to see those go to my Facebook page. Sorry

Next came Halloween. I'm not huge into Halloween....actually I hate it. I know it will be fun when I have kids and I can dress them up and what not, but right now I think it's pointless. So that being said it may not come to you as a shock when I just decided to go as my roommate, Steph, for our FHE (Family Home Evening) party.
Steph went as our friend Syd. I went as Steph. Syd went as me. It was pretty funny.
Marlee opted for an actual costume...a cat.
Then one day I was talking to my good friend Ally Morgan and she said Hey come to St. George next weekend. So I thought about it for about 5 seconds and said ok i'm in! I grabbed Steph, Mar, and Chey and the next weekend was spent in St. George. We got out of Logan's 30 degree weather and into some high 50's and low 60's....it felt GREAT!!
We did some shopping, some hot tubing, some sleeping, some eating....and that's about it. But it was great!
I don't know how to explain...
That takes us to the next weekend...Thanksgiving. The entire fam headed south once again. And when I say entire I mean it! All of us where there under one roof and we had a TON of fun! There was lots of relaxing, shopping, golfing, eating, and swimming.
On Thanksgiving we had Bruce and Syd and their family over for dinner and we all just hung out for a while. Then for some weird reason Kristy decided she wanted to go Black Friday Shopping. So we teamed up with Syd, Michelle, and Whitney and headed to Walmart. We went to the 10 o'clock toy opening. Man once 10 hit the place went NUTS!!! All of a sudden you heard someone yell, "THEY SAID GO!" And everyone just started throwing things in their carts. Erika looked at me and said, "STAY CLOSE!" Next thing I knew she was grabbing a crock pot yelling at me to get one too. They were only $10.00....so what did i do? I grabbed one of course!
Well after that we went to the 12 o'clock opening at Kohle's which actually was a bit of a let down. But we'll always have Walmart :-)

Then on Friday we took some family photos. Haven't seen them done yet but just knowing our family I'm sure their great!!
Friday night we went up to Tuacahn to help get us in the Christmas mood!
They had tons of lights! Addi wanted to know if we wanted to take pictures of just one of them at a time....as she posed next to a tree. hahaha oh Addi
They had this funny board that we hogged for a while. Pretty cute kids if you ask me!

Then the kids got to sit on Santa's lap. Carson and Ryder weren't the biggest fans of him...maybe next year?
Couldn't resist getting a picture with my girls!

Me and Mom! Love it!! Mom made a comment about how we look nothing alike....I don't know I can see a resemblance. Any comments?
And finally my FHE's Christmas party. My calling is a FHE group leader or in other words FHE Mom. I plan a FHE every other week with my partner Togi. This one we did a Christmas party. It turned out pretty fun. I like our group!
Here are the people:
Keith, Togi, Chey, Misty, Tarah
Jake, Marlee, Me
C.J. and Steph
Well overall you can see I live a pretty blessed life!!
Thanks to everyone whose helped make it so much fun!!
Next up is Finals and then I will really get to enjoy my favorite time of the year!

Love ya!
