Thrice Blessed

Welcome to my day of random posts. Life has been crazy. We are happy and settling into our new life. We would appreciate your prayers right now on our behalf.

I will get better at posting--mostly because I love to see my own kids on-line.

Feeding the Ducks @ BYU

Kat, Luke and I visited the ducks at BYU. Ali was still in school. But, we missed her! The ducks will actually come and eat out of your hand. Kind of scary :)

Mowing the Lawn

I mow my parent's lawn when I need a physical outlet. I actually got asked to not mow the lawn so much! This was my challenge the last time. I couldn't figure out why Rufus was guarding the clipping's bag.

Oh, it is Oliver he is cornering in the bag!!! Silly animals. I had to wait to finish mowing the lawn until they finished their game.

Halloween 2008

We had a great Hallween this year. It is the first year I have ever had fun!! I actually dressed up, so maybe that is why I had fun :) I was a witch. I know, I know, I am a witch all the time!

Halloween Pumkins 2008

For the first time in, like, forever, we carved pumpkins. Papa helped us, cause he is the all-around pumpkin carving pro.

I have love being back home with my parents. I have remembered so many great memories from my childhood. Carving pumpkins brought back a hilarious memory. When I was young, 5 or 6, my dad would make a HUGE production out of carving pumpkins. He would take us to the store to pick the perfect pumpkin. Then, we would go home and take out paper and pencils to design the face. We would create glorious faces. And then we would hand them over to Dad and wait, anxiously, to see our pumpkin. Well, inevitably, our pumpkins would have triangles for the eyes, a triangle for the mouth and the same smile with one tooth. Seriously. I kid you not. By the time we turned 8, we would just draw our pumpkin face picture with triangles for the eyes, a triangle for the nose and a smile with one tooth.
