It's been awhile

Here is what happened in October. I know I haven't blogged for awhile but the battery in my camera was dead and it took me forever to get it replaced. In October we spend sometime in the canyon and saw some beautiful colors. I also got to go with Saedree and her Kindergarten class to Hee Haw farms. It was lots of fun.

Halloween 2009

For Halloween this year we went trick-or-treating in my parents neighborhood on Grandview Hill. It was so much fun. The weather was awesome and the kids had a blast. Poor Anni got so tired near the end that she fell asleep in the basket behind the bike my brother was riding so she went home early with Pa Jim. She was so cute running up to the doors and saying Trick or Treat, I think she tripped and spilled her candy at least 400 times, but she just stood up and said " I got it" and would pick up her candy and continue on. It was so much fun. Bryson was a zombie baseball player, Saedree was a Pirate and Annistyn was Little Red Riding Hood =) Super cute kids I do have to say!


Another Halloween has come and gone... till next year

Saedree's Birthday Party

For Saedree's birthday her bestest buddy and her went up to build a bear to make some super cute stuffed animals and then to Cold Stones for ice cream. Saedree was on cloud 9 ... Thank you Tiffany! Then she wanted to go to grandma's and have steak with grilled onions and sauteed mushrooms, potatoes and cheesy broccoli ( yes I have a fabulous eater that LOVES all kinds of food) Shad and Sami came down to spend the evening with us as well. It was a fun night. I can't believe she is already 6 but acts 16... watch out daddy!


Sami made a super yummy chocolate cake... some of us like to call it better than sex cake =) New baby that cries and laughs from grandma...seriously sounds real.
My bro and soon to be sister in law =) Trying on their Halloween hats.

Shad and Sami also bought her a super cute coat that for some reason I didn't get a picture of. Thanks everyone for everything, she had a great time.

Saedree is 6

I found this poem online and I loved it. Happy Birthday my precious little princess!

Beautiful Daughter: A precious little flower that is in constant bloom I watch as yet another milestone around the corner looms. It seems like only yesterday that we shared a breath but now it sees like tomorrow you will leave and I'll be left. A tiny little angel that always is in flight as soon as you came into my life you brought me so much light. Your beauty is so stunning your smile makes me melt I'm so proud to be your mommy It's the best I've ever felt. Oh perfect little princess with you I'm so in love every night before I dream I thank the Lord above. How did I get so lucky to have as sweet if a gift as you if ever you should need me there's nothing I wouldn't do.

Baptism

BRYSON'S BAPTISM!
Not the best family pic, but hey it has all of us right!

Grandpa Riley and great grandpa Stevens

This blanket was made by grandma Linda. She did such a great job... thank you!

My handsome boys
What a goof !

I only have a few of the pictures back from Bryson's baptism, so here are the ones I have so far. Bryson's baptism was on September 26th 2009. It was such a special day for him and for us. He is such a great kid and we are so lucky to have him in our family. Thank you to all of you who were there to support him.

October General Conference

WOW !!! is the only word that describes how I feel after watching Conference this weekend. I have a renewed dedication to "Try a little harder". I don't know if I have a stronger love for Jeffery R. Holland since he came to one of our Stake Conferences just recently, but I have NEVER in my entire life heard a better talk then the one he gave today. What an amazing man, I admire him so much. I am so grateful for such an uplifting weekend, and for the joy and the hope that I feel. I hope that will stay with me for a long time! LOVE TO ALL
