Two of these pics are turned side ways, and I am not computer savvy, but my pictures are showing up in my window to create a new post as lots of letters and numbers and no pics. I wanted to delete the two pics that are not rotated, but can't figure it out. Sorry. These pics are a little catch up of us.

Riker decided that he was going to put window clings on the front door while I cleaned. It was really nice, it kept him occupied for about an hour. I was actually able to accomplish something.

Paislee and Riker got some new church clothes and looked so stinkin cute that we couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a pic. Pnut is wearing the camel necklace that her papa brought her back from Iraq.

The last pic is Riker helping me make whipping cream tonight. We also made a yummy pumpkin pie and some chili. Tomorrow morning Riker, Heath and I are going to Meadow, where my sister-in-laws family has a ranch. We are planning to play and ride motorcycles for the weekend. Paislee is already over there with my mom.
We will soon have pics from our exciting weekend.

Hope everyone has a very enjoyable and safe weekend.

Did Anyone See the Swine?!?

I have been wanting to update my blog, but have been sick in bed since Saturday. Heath went to Heber to watch the extreme mustang makeover that his older brother was competing in, while my mom and sister came down to go to some holiday boutiques. My mom and sister ended up watching my kids until Heath got home because I was so sick I couldn't even get up off the floor. By Monday, Heath had decided that he needed his wife and the kids needed their mommy back so he took me to the doctor. They are pretty sure I contracted influenza and possibly have some pneumonia going on. I attempted to get ready for the day today and travel north to go to work, but by the time I got out of the shower and started to dry my hair, I was ready to lay back down. I will attempt again to go to work. I still have no energy and have no appetite, which doesn't help to get my energy back. I have some greater empathy for those that get the gomboo and hope that those that haven't had it don't have to experience it. I hope to be back to myself soon, since my projects are sitting undone and the house work is piling up! I hope to have cute pics and stories of my family to post soon.

Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween! I decided to make homemade cinnamon rolls to go along with our homemade chili. They were super yummy.




Miss Paislee was "Sleeping Beauty" according to her she was not a princess and Riker was a cute little chick. It is Paislee's costume from last year. He loved wearing his costume and taking in on the festivities.




We left grandma set up with the treat bucket at our house while we took the kids trick or treating.




Paislee and Riker both at a run for the next house and handful of goodies! It was really exciting to see how into the holiday my kids got. After the first house Riker had it down. He knew that after he knocked he would get a treat and he would not let me help carry his big bucket. After the first couple of houses I had to dump his bucket into a grocery bag.




This is Riker when we got home from trick or treating. His new trick is to stand in the middle of the kitchen table. He can get up as fast as you can get him back down.




This is the kids and our spooky monster pumpkin. They had such a great time carving it with daddy.




We also carved pnuts teeny tiny little pumpkin. By the time we came home from trick or treating. The top had burned. It sure was a great little pumpkin though.



We hope you had a great Halloween.

(hopefully we will have a new fam pic to display soon. We had them taken, but have not had them edited yet. I am way excited, we are going to have a large pic done on canvas)
