Hi Everyone,
I hope everyone is enjoying the Christmas season, do your neighborhoods have Christmas lights everywhere? Well our Christmas tree has been summonned to the office so the little kids dont rip the ornaments off, well it's not working out too good, it has been plucked by Bella and Franklin.
I want to put the tree in the livingroom but I know it will not survive, if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know, I know many of you have kids and have ideas, so share the love please!

I am ready for the hoe-down!

At Katherine Albertson's Park this summer.

What chocolate bar? I didnt see one!!!

on top of a hill

Here I am looking at the Snake River. Check out Wally's overalls, nice fashion statement, huh?

I hiked a little paved trail in Rexburg called Cress Creek. It was very beautiful and serene. I went by myself and learned to appreciate nature a lot more. The air is so clean and crisp. So here is Cress Creek and views of the Snake River.

THANKSGIVING

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. I think it is pretty cool that in the U.S. a special day is set apart in the year to give thanks, get together and enjoy the family over a massive feast. I used to think, "we should be thankful all year long, not just one day a year". I understand now that we need to be grateful everyday, but, Thanksgiving is a national holiday, people fly all over the place to go see family, most places shut down their businesses to allow employees the beauty of just being home, relax and enjoy.
So I hope you all were happy, and extra thankful.
I know I was!

The cutest witch in town. People would tell her "What a cute witch you are!" the which she responded each time "yep!"

Granny and her easy Halloween custome, creative Carolyn!

Yeay! it's Halloween, bring on the candy!!

Franklin was inspecting the pumpkins and making sure they glowed properly for the trick-r-treaters. They passed inspection!

Happy Halloween

We had a Happy Day on Friday except for...Zach lost his keys. If there is one thing is good at is keeping his things in their place. It is always me who loses keys, the remote, my phone... He had to borrow my key to get to work. I set out on search of those darn keys. I turned sofas over and looked under the cushions, under the mattress and in all the rooms...everywhere. Zach pretty much had a terrible day wondering where he could have lost his keys. I knew that Mr. Handsome Franklin had taken them and mysteriously placed them somewhere where we could not find them.
That afternoon Wally and Carolyn (Gramps and Granny) came up to visit. We went out to dinner the whole family. It was really nice to spend time with them. When we got home we still couldnt find the keys. The next morning I went over all the places again, I remembered I hadn't looked in the little storage room under the stair. We have a few sacks of flour there and I decided to move them to the side to look under there, and VOILA! there they were under 4 big sacks of flour. I am sure many of you have had your keys mysteriously disappear on you, know for sure the culprit is your little kid. So that was Friday, the trick was that the keys were lost, the treat was that we had a lot of fun with Gramps and Granny.
I took Bella trick or treating around our house. We got a late start and it got dark really fast so we didnt make bank on candy, but there is always next year! We had about 5 trick-r-treaters come to our door so we have a bunch of skittles and starburst left over! Candy anyone?
Hope you all had a good and safe and fun Halloween.

Happy Bella

Here is my girl with a beautiful smile! She is so fun!

Franklin eats Franklin sleeps

Yesterday, Wednesday the 22, Franklin fell asleep while eating his lunch. It was to adorable, I had to videotape him.

Lovely pumpkin couple

Bella would not go to see the scary decorations so she stayed by the cute yard decor.
Drawing faces on the pumpkins was Bella's idea, she plopped the cowboy hat on the little pumpkin and Zach painted his face and I did the lady pumpkin. Aren't they a unique looking couple?
