Jansennnnnn!!!!!

Don't ever try to do anything when kids are home! Ever!

 Yes, it's ink! Jansen is totally proud of himself. It's everywhere, kitchen table chairs, floor, hallway, bathroom, sinks, tubs all over his clothes... Which is why the ink stops on his arms! Ruined the cutest shirt . Guess I need to go shopping 

It won't come all the way out... There are so dark spots on our table and the sink is a little blue still the floor looks good. 

Yeah I was so mad and Jansen was so happy, I finally started laughing and said well at least let me get a picture before I throw you in the bath. Pictures make everything funny. 

November 15, 2012

Jennifer and I, with a bunch of friends pretended we were young again and went to the midnight showing of Breaking Dawn Part #2.  I bet you're jealous!  

Pumpkin Patch

I found these photos on Jake's phone... While at the pumpkin patch the kids got to get inside these giant balls, plug their ears while they filled them with air, then got to run around on the water like hamsters.  They really had so much fun cause their dad likes to spoil them rotten!!! It was really cute.

October at a glance

So many fun and wonderful memories this October... 

Taking the kids to Frosty's for good behavior at school...

Grandma Sue came to visit and help while Jake was out of town.  She was such a lifesaver and made everything SO MUCH easier to have her help!  Thanks for coming mom.

For some reason I can never remember to take pictures when my mom visits, but I got TWO this time!!!

We went to lots of festivals and enjoyed so much candy!

Jansen got to hold a chicken, probably the highlight of his LIFE!

We won 3 gold fish... it helps when you know the girls working the booths...

I made 20 freezer meals and exchanged them!!!  So proud of myself!

Dressed up for parites... Reesa modeling the tail we added to her cat costume.  She was very happy!

Went to the pumpkin patch during the day on Jake's day off and did the pony rides.  Look how cute and happy Reesa looks!

Jansen Loved it too!

Mitchell trying really hard to be a good sport...

We did the family photo booth

Jansen wanted to be a pirate and kept making this face in most the pictures I'm not posting...

Then we had to carve the pumpkins we picked...

Reesa insisted we baked the seeds so she could try eating them...

Jake and Reesa drawing her pumpkin face.

This is the cutest thing... Mitchell loves to blow raspberries, and here is a precious moment of Jansen taking turns "talking" to Mitchell by blowing raspberries back.  These moments of interaction with Mitchell are so few I almost cry every time I see one!

Reesa carved her pumpkin all by herself!!!!  She did such a great job!

The kids got to wear their costumes to school, so here's me dropping them off for the day!

Happy Halloween everybody!

Aunt Chelsey visits

I am SO LOVED!  My sister came out to visit us for TWO whole weeks!  To say "amazing" is an understatement. It was so fun to have someone to just live my life with me.  So of course we mainly did the mundane things of daily living but it was SO FUN! 

The kids picked out these flowers to decorate our house for Aunt Chelsey.

 We took the kids swimming almost everyday to get out some energy...

 Rascal fell in love with Chelsey... look at him snuggled up to her!  

 I was applying for my California Hygiene license and Chelsey volunteered to be my patient, (she had to get Nitrous, 9 shots, and STC.  What a great sport!) so we drove to Sacramento one weekend and got some alone girl time while I finished my course and exams.  

We seriously ate everything we wanted in Sacramento!

 Went to card club and had a super fun craft night.

 Volunteered at "Cougars Rock the Walk" for our elementary school

 Reesa was a super star and ran for the entire hour!!!!!

 Mitchell being cute after a blowout in church...

 We finally took her to see Yosemite and those curvy roads reminded me why I don't go more often... I was SO CAR SICK!  

 Jansen loves every dog we see and wanted a picture with this dog...

 Gorgeous views!

 Went to dinner at Bass lake

Put Mitchell's chair up at the table and he LOVED being part of the group!

I had such a great time with Chelsey, of course I'm a little worried her husband will never let her come again because she stayed so long...  Thanks for all your help Chelsey!!!
