Pumpkin Patch

For Preschool today we took the kids to a pumpkin patch. They had small wheel barrals for the kids to use and that was a hit. They also had a corn maze for kids. I think they all ran around it about 15-20 times! Besides getting a couple "pumpkin" belly comments from a couple people it was such a fun day.

Update

For all those doubters out there....He is well over half way done.

Weatherman

Everybody always says we get the first snowfall in October. Thank goodness it doesn't stick. But the boys were very excited about it. Also, when we got in the van to run errands today Jack asks me, "Mom, I don't know who the weatherman is. Is it Jesus, Heavenly Father, Joseph Smith or the Prophet? It was so cute.
I love the mountains with snow on them.
2 weeks left. Very exciting.

Courtneys Visit

This is my best friend that I worked with when we lived in California. She came for a visit this weekend.Here are a few of the things we did. It was so fun to have her and we are looking forward to her wedding next year!
Went to the BYU/Utah State football game. Definitly a good one to go to. Exciting win with 11 seconds to go.

She just recently got engaged and asked me to be in her wedding. I took her to try on dresses. So fun!
She had never seen Temple Square so we road the train there on Conference Sunday.

Bunk Beds

We have some tools and a garage.
Number 1 helper.
And a bunch of wood. We are hoping to turn this project into bunk beds. Eric's first time...he will do great.

Pirate Party

The boys got invited to a Pirate Party a couple days ago put on by the Freil family. They did one last year and it was such a big hit. The boys seriously talked about it all year long so they were very excited to go again this year. Definitely a fun way to kick off the Halloween season.

Heather comes to town

It was nice to see Heather and my two adorable nieces yesterday. We went to Wheeler farm and then onto McDonalds for a delicious lunch. The kids had a ball together. Feeding the animals and getting on the tractors. Sure takes me back to my roots.



She was definatly the fun mom. She let the kids get suckers at wheeler farm and icecream cones at Mcdonalds. Good thing she came along.

Fall

My favorite time of the year is Fall and Halloween. We couldn't pass up these Pumpkins at Walmart today. For FHE the boys colored them.

BYU Season

It started last weekend. This will dominate our household for the next 10 weeks. Go Cougars!

Preschool

This week we started up Joy school for the boys again. It was my turn to teach and we had a blast.We talked about the letter G,color green, number 5 and Grandparents because Grandparents Day is on Sunday. It was so fun to have all the kids over again.
Letter "G" activities. Grasshopper jumping.
Garbage toss.
Growling.
Gurgling with water. This was by far the boys favorite activity.
Groundhog tunnel. It collapsed a couple of times.

The boys practiced writing the letter G and also thier names.

Grandparents Day poem with hand prints.
Granola Bars for our snack.

Reading fun Grandparent Books.
