Halloween

Danielle had a class party.


I'm proud of my girl


Halloween

The kids decorated for halloween today. They were so excited they couldn't sit still.


Fall Leaves



Today was a beautiful Sunday.  The little baby Andrew didn't feel so great and had the boogers so we didn't go to church and just hung out together.  The kiddos got to play in the leaves and cooperated really well when I wanted to take pictures.  I love my kiddos so much. They are really excited to have dad in town but they don't sleep when he is here so I don't feel super good. Three more days until trick or treating starts!

School.

Danielle is doing well in school


Andrew


At the gym.

Climbing

Climbing is fun


Politics

Politics can teach you how to write as well.


Danielle Halloween

Danielle loves decorating for holidays...


Working

We are working on the yard... Slowly. We laid some pavers I found buried in the yard and planted about 50 bulbs...but there are many more to go...


Yard before

We needed a place to plant bulbs.


Church

I've already decided to just let them be crazy today.


Baby boy

This little boy will be walking soon...


Yummy

Danielle poured her own milk


Hiking

Today the kids and I went up south fork canyon.  Mark really doesn't like to walk so I carried him and carried baby on my front.  He also doesn't like pictures and come to think of it today he didn't like much of anything.  He decided at nine in the morning that Dad WOULD SKYPE WITH HIM. even though John was at school and can never skype in the middle of the day Mark was not amused and didn't really believe me. Carrying the boys makes me slow but it's easier than Mark walks and wants to be carried and I carry all the rock climbing equipment and almost fall over every five steps. I think I hurt my right shoulder a little. I hope the weather stays nice so we can go a lot more places.

Twins

What cute twins we have...



Picnic at rock canyon

Being outside is wonderful.


Funny boy

Andrew thinks everything is funny these days.


Danielle and Andrew


Danielle is such a good older sister.  The other day I caught her rocking Andrew in a chair and she loved him and sang to him.  He was laughing and smiling.
The kiddos sing songs about their dad and always love talking to him on the phone.  He got them netflix to watch shows. They also love looking at bees.  We just moved into a new place and the kiddos were really happy and want to catch the wasps. We bought a trap but I'm terrified of their fascination with bees. Mark is actually really good at catching and killing bees- it's uncanny.
Danielle told me next time I should come to the baptism and not work on moving, because to her getting baptized is more important. I'm so excited to plant bulbs with the kiddos.


Maple canyon

Being outside with the kiddos is great. I love them.


Danielle the thinker

Danielle is trying out her pensive face...


Cold

This little boy has a cold.


Rock climbing is awesome

Mark, Danielle and I went to the quarry. She was fearless. Mark hung on the rope like a swing and asked me to pull him up.
