7 Cool Happenings...

Here's 7 cool happenings that have happened lately....


1. We woke up to see this beauty that found it's pot of gold in the school cafeteria.



2. Ben took a nap! Actually, Ben didn't quite make it to the house in time before sleep took over. Poor guy.


3. We all grew mustaches...




4. ...but traded them in for cool aggie headbands.



5. We took a visit to BYU with cousin Sawyer, who was visiting from St. Louis. Good to show our kids our old stomping grounds!



6. Jake went to Hawaii!! Brad, his old locker partner and BFF from school, flew him in for an aggie game and sight seeing.

7. And finally, Jake an I went to the Famous Idaho Potato bowl to cheer on the aggies in Boise. We were really served potatoes at nearly every meal. Thanks to Jake's mom for flying in to watch our kids so Jake and I could enjoy our trip together!

Halloween 2011

Happy Halloween! :)

A few days before the big event, Sophie had her Kindergarten Halloween program. She even had her own speaking part that she had to memorize, and she did great. Her teacher is so amazing, it's ridiculous! These Kindergartners put on quite a show!



And here's the crew, ready to trick-or-treat with dad......

Naturally, Ben is Diego because all two-year-olds love high pitched yelling cartoons:) Sophie requested to be a witch, and Gracie (after 2 years of begging) was finally the American Girl Doll "Kirsten". We did our best...it's a hard costume to come up with! I finally broke out my sewing machine and whipped out a makeshift pioneer skirt. It's been a while since that machine produced anything! It was a great Halloween!
