What we've been up to!

Well I have a broken camera and so I haven't really posted lately because how fun is a post without pictures??? Thanks to Aunt Tam I have a couple pictures to post of Jalen playing flag football. He just finished flag football a few weeks ago and really had fun playing. He is looking forward to basketball in January. My Dad came to visit a few weeks ago from Ohio and my sister came to visit from Idaho. We had lots of fun going and doing things, but I have no pictures to post showing all of our fun! While Grandpa was visiting we went to the scarecrow festival at thanksgiving point. We had never been before and the boys loved it! It is tradition when Grandpa comes that he takes the boys to Boondocks and they had a blast there. I let the boys skip school one day and we went to Temple Square. The last night Grandpa was here the boys went and rode horses with Uncle Mike and Aunt Em. They really thought that was a lot of fun too. We had a lot of fun with all the family visiting. We ate too much, played a lot, and stayed up too late! I was sad to see it come to an end! Thanks Grandpa for everything! We had lots of fun!

I am really sad that my camera was broken and I couldn't get a picture of my boys in their halloween costumes. Well I did get a small one on my phone, but that was it! Jalen was Luigi and Landon was Mario. They made a cute pair. We had a busy day Friday! I got to help in Jalens class with his party. I was in charge of a game. I decided to take 5 plastic pumpkin buckets that you use for candy and have the kids toss ping pong balls into them. After an hour of chasing ping pong balls around the room and being pregnant I was hot and worn out! It was still lots of fun, but when I woke up Saturday morning my thighs were in pain!! After Jalens party I went to help in Landons class. I was in charge of the craft. We made ghost suckers and spiders. That was fun and the best part was I got to just sit the whole time. A well needed break after my workout in Jalens class. Then after the boys school parties we headed to the Legacy Center(where I work) for the Annual Lehi City Halloween Party. They had a magic show, trick-or-treating, a spook alley, and lots of games. Then after that we were off to my 4th party of the day, the Ward Halloween Party. They had trunk or treat, chili cookoff, and then games and cookie decorating for the kids. It was a great party! By the time we got home my feet were in pain! I was happy to kick off my shoes and relax for the night!!

Well I think that I need to look into buying a new camera. I am very sad about all the picture opportunities I have missed! With Christmas and a baby coming up I better find one soon! We can't miss anymore pictures!!!
