I love halooween and so do the kids. They get so excited and can't wait to go. This is a hard week because friday can't comefast enough. we had a halloween party at church a week ago and the kids were so happy that they got to dress up early. Connor couldn't wear his mask, so I colored his hair and face. He lookes so different. I love to see the joy and excitement that each one has for this crazy holiday.

Barnyard Boo


My Mom and I took the kids out to Thanksgiving point to their barnyard boo. The kids had UEA ( No school) and the weather was still good, so we thought it would be a good time to get the kids outside and do something fun for fall. There are different areas, you can go to. The scarecrow festival, cornbelly's, or the barnyard boo. I thought we would do the barnyard one, because of the animals and it's for younger kids. Zack had fun with somethings, but he is getting older and wants to do the big kids things. It cost money to go into each area, so we didn't go to the other ones. Sorry Zack, Next year. It was still fun. There was face painting, pony rides, wagon rides, animals, lots of games, and more. The kids really liked all the animals and had fun. It was fun to get out and enjoy the nice weather. Thanks mom for going with me. I always love doing things with my MOm and the Kids love being with Nana.

I was watching Zack and Connor get tattoo's, when I look back and this lady is holding a bunny so Brielle could pet it easier. I tried to get my camera, but was a little to slow. I got the picture right as she pulled back from giving the bunny a big kiss.

I had to plead with Zack to ride on the pony. He wanted to at first and then changed his mind. He had fun until he got off and his foot got stuck in the stirrup and he spun around and hit the horse. He was just fine just embarrased.

Connor really liked the wagon ride. He went on it twice. Once with all of us and then once with Brielle and Nana.

lost

Well,if you have ever lost a child no matter in a store or around the house you will know how I felt. I Left to to go to the grocery story with Zack. When I got home I found Marc saying that he couldn't find Connor. At first I thought he must be hidding from him. But as time went on he was no where to be found. Soon MArc was driving the neighborhood calling his name. I was going door to door looking for him with no luck. I call the police and tried to get help. It's hard to try to remember what they are wearing, what they look like, and thinking how could this be happening to me. The police said I had to stay right where I was. How can I stand still and not look for my child. It felt like forever waiting for them. By now I have all the neighbors out calling his name looking for him, it's dark and cold out side. Every scary thought of what could have happened to him or where he could be goes through your head. While waiting for the police, my dear friend Toni found him at a neighbors house down the street. Where he was not to go and especially at night. I prayed so hard that we would find him safe and unharmed. I am very grateful to my heavenly father who lead my friend to think of going to that house. I was so scared that I didn't know where to look or what to do. The very thouhgt of losing a child is so scary. I will not let him out of my sight for the rest of his life. I love him so much and would not know what to do without him.

Pumpkin Patch

The kids have been wanting to pick the pumpkins in the yard for ever, so the other night we finally let them. The night before the snow was to fit. We didn't grow the big 50lb. pumpkins this year. We thought we would stick more to the normal size ones. They are alote easier to pick up. Zack and Connor didn't like the pricky stems. They still had fun. We picked 8 and Left 3 in hopes that they will orange up. Now they want to carve them and think I am so mean that I wont let them carve them yet.

Fall

I finaly got the kids out to go get pictures with the leaves. They where not all that excited to have to take pictures again, but they love me and did it for me:0)Once they were out in the leaves they loved and wanted to pick lots of leaves. I love the fall and all the colors. This year the colors don't seem as bright at some years, but there spots here and there that have the bright color. I was lucky to find a bright spot for these pictures. We went up above Wasatch Golf corse on the road towards Brighton. We luckily did not have to go up very far.
