Christmas Pictures

We went to protait inovation yesterday. The pictures turned out really good, except that Lacey would not smile. She was so happy then we walked back to the room to get our pictures taken and she freaked out. She was crying only wanted me to hold her, but then she got better, but she was determined not to smile. Which i was not happy about. I was mad, but what can you do. THat is the reason Lacey is not happy. here are the pictures injoy. I need to scan some of the pictures in so i will post more later. Sorry that some are sideways.

Van in the Garage

I’m so happy to tell you that Jason got the Garage all cleaned out and the van is now parked in the garage. It is so nice to go tell the kids to get in the car and they can just go in the garage and get in. Jason surprised me when I came home from Nursing orientation on Monday. Thanks so much Jason. I love you.

Happy Halloween

For Halloween this year I made us all costumes from Peter Pan. Lydia was Wendy, Lacey - Tinker Bell, Luke - Peter Pan, Jason - Captain Hook and I was Tiger Lily the Indian princess. Sorry it has taken so long to get the pictures on the computer but we got a new camera and I didnt' know how to get the pictures on the computer. I thought that I could do it without Jason's help but it didn't happen. I was getting frustrated, but in the end I had to wait for Jason's help. It took forever because he has been sick for 2 weeks, thank goodness he is getting better!!! He had an ear infection and the first antibiotic didn't take care of the problem, so on Monday he started a new one and it is working great now!!

We had a very fun Halloween. We had a party at my In-laws' house the night before, so we got to dress up twice. The kids had fun, and it was fun to see everyone. Then on Halloween, Jason and I both had to work, but Jason ended up getting off at 4 instead of 7 and so he got to take the kids trick-or-treating. They had so much fun. I got off work early as well. I got off at 6:30 so I got to see the end of the trick-or-treating. The kids loved the candy!! We ended at my parents house for scones. It was great fun!! After we left my parents we went to Jason parents house for a little bit.

The funniest story: when we were getting ready to leave Nana's house, we found Luke and Lacey at the bottom of the stairs with the candy bowl dumped on the floor, and they were stuffing the candy down their shirts. It was so funny and cute. They didn't know whether they were going to be in trouble or not. It was great. It was all in the clothes!! When we stood them up, the candy fell out all over the floor. So much for that great idea!! We were trying to determine who the master-mind of this great heist was, and we think that it must have been Lacey. She is a little more adventurous than Lukey, who is more of a follower.

Nursing School

I'm so excited, I got into Nursing School up at Salt Lake Community. I will have to drive up to South Jordan which isn't to bad about 40 minutes one way. I have been on the waiting list for two years now. I start in January going Full time. Jason Graduates in December so it will be perfect timing. I will be done in two years. It will be lots of work but it will be worth it in the end. I got my first round of shots last Friday and my arms hurt for days, now they are better, but man it hurt! I have to go back 2 more times, next time i have to get 4 more and then the time after that i will only have to get one more.

Helping Daddy

The kids love to play with Lukes play tools. Here are the kids helping Jason clean/ organize the garage. Here is Jason with his drill and Luke with his drill. I hope that they get the garage cleaned out soon, so we can pull the van in before it starts snowing. I keep you posted!

Halloween cupcakes

Lydia enjoying her cupcake.

Lacey is licking her lips, she is getting ready to eat and enjoy!!

On Friday we made Halloween cupcakes and gave them to the neighbors. The kids had fun helping me make and decorating the cupcakes. I think that they enjoyed eating them the most. They are ready to make more.

The BOX

I think that this is funny. Last Saturday my parents were over and the twins, thought this box was a great toy. Lacey hair is out of control, like most of the time, oh well. Life goes on.

Fall pictures

Last weekend we went up in the canyon and here are some pictures that we took while we were there. It is so pretty up there, so peaceful.

Pumpkins

Lacey and the BIG pumpkins!!

This morning we went out to go and get some pumpkins. We went to Pumpkin land, but it was too muddy to do all the things that they had, so we are going to have to go back when it is better weather. We had lots of fun, other then the girls were freezing. It is so cold today, it has been raining on and off all day. I hope it warms up a little bit before winter comes! I love this picture because Luke is eating the pumpkin.
