Halloween..

And so the tradition continues.. going to the pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkin!

It was really cold this year! But it was as fun as always!

Cassidy & Jack seemed to be more excited about the stems of the pumpkins!

This was Cassidy's first year of actually carving the pumpkin herself! She did a really good job too! I was very proud of her! This is the first year she didn't enjoy taking out the guts though, and she didn't eat them either.. Thankfully!

Jack decided his needed an extra.. something..

Cody was the cutest chick ever for Halloween. He slept the whole time, but it was fun to dress him up anyway!

I know this is surprising.. But Cassidy wanted to be a tiger.. Our neighbors loaned us this darling WARM costume. I had to convince her she couldn't wear it 24/7 but it was perfect for Halloween and she LOVED it!

First Day of School..

First day of school is always so exciting! I can't believe how fast she is growing up! especially when I compare her to Cody!

Here she is posing for me, which is RARE!

And here she is in her class with her best buddies, from left to right:
Rhett, Ryann, Cassidy & Cole.

Cody's Blessing..

Cody was blessed the first weekend in August.

We had friends and family over for lunch and it was so great to see everyone! We loved having everyone come over, brave the HEAT and share the special day with us!

Here is Sis and Cody. He adores her so much! It was the perfect day!

Labor Day Weekend..

We went camping over Labor Day weekend up to one of our usual spot on Skyline Drive.

Cody doesn't care for the out doors like Cassidy did! But he is going to have to get use to it!

We took the kids for a hike just outside of camp it was alot of fun, but the kids got tired fast so we took the road back.. Good Times!

My bro-in law is WAY into hiking these days, so we went with him and his kids and hiked down to the beaver ponds and let the kids play and make "soup" for the beavers.. :)

Here they are standing on the beaver dam, all in all it was a really fun weekend! It was good weather for the most part, cool evenings.. It was perfect!

Little Mule Rider..

The summer has come and gone, and well so has fall, as I am looking at the 10" of snow that has fallen today! I thought I should start to update our blog since it has been forever! Cassidy and Rod spent a lot of time this summer mule riding as once she is on, she loves to ride! This is a picture of Payson Canyon.
