Christmas fun

We went over to our dear friends the Sylvesters home for a little Christmas celebration. It was so fun to just have dinner, hang out. and let our kids play together. They always have so much fun. The kids even got to make a gingerbread manger. It was fun for the older kids....The twins were not that interested. LOL There was even a brown man acting at the pooper scooper behind the manger. Yeah it got kinda out of hand. LOL So funny. The kids also made ornaments.

The finished product!

ornaments

these are some cute aprons and hats that their girls got.

Somehow all the little kids ended up with no tops on. LOL

Ohhhh and Trick or Treating of course!

Yeah....almost forgot to post pics of trick or treating. We went to lunch with my mom and sister for my birthday on Halloween. We ate, came home, the kids napped and we were off to trick or treat. We went over to our friends Adrienne and Josh's house and she cooked dinner. We ate and then headed off to get some goodies! The girls tuckered out pretty fast but had a good time. Then after that we went over to my grandmas house to visit and eat some more....curry. Yum. Yeah we ate a lot that day. Haha.

 SO we are on our way over to Adrienne's house and I look back to find this.....What funny kids I have!!

 

 All the kids in costume!! So fun!

 Adrienne was taking a pic of her kids on the front porch and my kids of course had to have one of their own! LOL

 Ashlynn, Kaitlynn, and Brookie.

 Heading towards the BIG houses!! Full size candy bars and all!!

Emma crying after coming back to the house because she cant have a sucker and a piece of chocolate at the same time!

Great Halloween!

Carving pumpkins, pong tourny, and birthday bash!!

Lets see if we can fit all of that into one post....I think I can.

We carved pumpkins after Ashley's Birthday party at the Ginn's home. It was such nice weather we carved them outside!! That's a first! The kids had fun coloring on their pumpkins and playing in Uncle Tees LONG grass in the back yard. Haha

 

Our friend O.D. hosted a Beer Pong Tournament at his house for Halloween. It was so fun to get all dressed up and play some pong! Even though we got knocked out pretty early me and Ash had a good time! Mike and Josh made it almost to the end thought....Must have been their costumes!~

 Then we all went out to the Depot to celebrate mine and Kristi's birthday. It was way fun despite a rocky start. We saw a girl get hit by a car. I was never able to find out what happened but hopefully she was ok. The rest of the night was way fun! Great friends and family just out to have a good time!!

                                   Birthday Girls!!!                                  Birthday SHOTS!

 Ran into an old client from the Spa there! so good to see her!!

 Had such a great Birthday / Halloween this year! Thanks to ALL who made it awesome!!

Trunk R Treat

I just cant believe Halloween came and went so fast this year! The kids are getting so big and I just love holidays now that they are a little bigger and know what is going on. Trunk R Treat usually kicks of the Halloween festivities and the kids were so good and had a great time. They played Halloween Bingo, ate doughnuts off of a string and of course got lots of candy from the trunks of cars in the parking lot.

 Lately this is what I get when I say "Smile"

Utah State Fair

Ohhh the fun of a Fair. I love the food, rides, animals and you can't forget people watching! We had a great time wandering around looking at all the animals. Ethan rode a few rides. We ate a yummy funnel cake. We even saw cute itty bitty baby piglets!! adorable! The girls were pretty good considering we didn't bring the stroller so they walked all night. Boy did they sleep well!
