It's Halloweeeeeeen time!!!

Oh! Fall how I love thee....

I absolutely love this time of year, having children injects such new enthusiasm and joy into the holidays for me....they get so excited, therefore I get equally as excited, actually more so...I am so blessed!

Absolutely SPEECHLESS...except to say, isn't she the most beautiful flower...


So we hit up the Halloween Carnie with The other Gharring's (love it!) and the boys had a blast...totally fitting that Reid is a monkey, which is what he is in everyday life...a monkey. And of course My "Heroes" Jack and Luke.

Again...no words.

It is so hard to get everyone to cooperate with pics at this age...so this is the best that I could do with 3 small kids...not too bad, they're all looking at the camera at least!

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Pumpkin patch on Brad's bday! so fun, I know... I managed to get a couple of shots of the kids. Lucy was so funny...trying to eat some hay..

seRIOUSly!



Howdy! "welcome to the pumpkin patch!"

Cute Hayley!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Birthday shout out to my wonderful husband....who is turning the big THREE TWO today...

I love my husband because...He makes me smarter by sharing his VAST amount of knowledge with me daily... He is a UTE graduate, but absolutely loves BYU football...He seriously makes me laugh so hard, like laugh crying hard...He is kind...He is honest (like when he told me a dress I bought looked like a witch's dress, I still like it though and no it doesn't) ...He works his heart out for his family...so I can stay home....He truly is my best friend...

Happy b-day old man...

A camping we will go...

I think I am the last to post about our weekend adventure, but oh well. We were lucky enough to tag a long with The Gharring's (Chad and Rach), The Brays, The Lundquists and of course The Konold's on the beach camping excursion this past weekend. Thanks guys for a fun weekend!

Here are some pics:

The cool parents!

seriously love this picture, I told everyone to do a "goofy face" and this is the best that Reid could come up with, plus LOVE the huge chunk of marshmallow and graham cracker on his face. Love all the cute kids...aren't my nephews handsome, and Lor Lor, well all I can say is that I hope Lucy grows up as cute. seriously...
Love this picture of Lulu and who's that? Oh yea, the man around the camera constantly, so conceited....chad...just kidding. just referring to his comment on Rach's blog
This is what we woke up to...Amazing.
1,2,3,4 who do we adore....(my ode to cheerleading pyramids)
