Happy Halloween



The SC Sliderzz had another great weekend of baseball, claiming the second place spot again. So far we've played in three tournaments and we've taken second all three times. They really are a good little team. Ky had his best showing pitching yet I think. He's getting better and better every game it seems, and I'm finally not quite so nervous when he's on the mound. Thanks to everyone that came and watched and showed the family support. We're so lucky to have lots of family so close. We love you. Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!


Kyler as a Ninja. I think he changed his mind six times before he finally settled on this costume. He looked good though. Good choice to end on.
Kambrie as a Princess. She only changed her mind once, but she waited to decide that she didn't want to be a pirate until after I made her pirate skirt. It all worked out though, because Olivia ended up wearing it. Kambrie had fun walking around in her long flowing dress. She didn't want to stop trick or treating until her bucket was full.
Kolter as Bumblebee the Transformer. He knew he wanted to be a tramsformer right from the start. Once he got his costume he wore it for two days straight and he even slept in it. He just couldn't wait for Halloween to come.
Karsten as Elmo.This was his second year in a row to wear a hand me down costume. I guess that's what happens when you're the fourth child. It worked out okay though. He was okay with it, as long as he got to have his sword too. He looked so cute walking from door to door. He wore his costume to the store with me early this morning. Everyone there loved it too.
Kenzlie as a"Ball"erina. I made her costume over a month ago, and then as Halloween got closer I wasn't really sure if I wanted her to be it. I finally decided that it didn't really matter and that she wouldn't care what she dressed up as. So she was a "ball"erina. This picture is before I remembered to put her black under her eyes. That added to the whole "ball" part of it. I guess she ended up pretty cute too.

Fall Sports

Even though we're getting ready for another fun weekend of baseball, it's football season around here too. Kyler's football team is undefeated and Ky has 9 touchdowns for the season so far. He's so into the games and I just love watching him play. Kolter's team has only lost one game (Go Coach Danny!) and my cute litttle Kolter has even scored a couple touchdowns too. I haven't brought my camera to even one game yet...I guess I'll have to do that. My friend took some pics of Ky though, so when she passes them on to me I'll have to post one or two.

Happy Kids






Here are some fun pictures from our UEA weekend getaway to the Zion Ponderosa Ranch Resort. I took way too many pictures and I'll have to post some more later, but I just wanted to get a few up for now.


Just to the right of this tree is Jolley's Gulch. Do you know the story of how this got it's name? I don't want to tell you right now, but man, what a crazy story...

Take a Few Minutes and Watch...

This was a highlight for me from General Conference. I LOVED Elder Holland's testimony of the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon is an amazingly, powerful book. I have experienced the greatness that comes into your life when you study and read it on a regular basis. Nothing compares. It is true, this I KNOW.
