Halloween Fun

Our cute fam at the ward Halloween party and checking out the loot afterward. The kids had tons of fun. There were games and RockBand and even a miniature horse. And I would have to say, it was nice that it was like 80 degrees outside.

My Big Little Man

This is Corbin's handy work in the kitchen. The sad part is that he is fast enough to do this while I was standing right next to him. He wanted to help cook. I had no idea he knew how the toaster oven worked. And this is the little man trying to stay awake for lunch. Some days it's all I can do to keep him awake and happy until 11:00 am. He won't take two naps anymore, so it's a job to keep him awake and happy in the mornings and in the late afternoons. Aww, the joys of motherhood.

Reading Time

Aren't they cute? Jenna loves to be his "great big sister."

Firsts

Kallie's first day at her new school. We just moved to a new city, so she missed her first week, but she caught up really fast. She loves to read and play with friends. She is excited to make new friends, because she misses living by her cousins and misses her friends from Idaho & Utah. Jenna & Corbin having alone time. They are learning to play together really well, the unfortunate thing is that they make great partners in crime. They do things that I could never imagine that they were capable of. (And if you look really closely, you can see Corbin saying "cheeeeeze."

Hot? Hot! Hott!!

So it's the first day of Oct and it's 100 degrees outside. Not really the part of California that I like. We can't even go to the beach because it's a school day. I won't miss snow, but I'd love to have a nice thunderstorm, not just a few drops of rain that just makes my car dirtier then it already is.
