Dentist Check-up

It is always a great feeling, after you have your teeth cleaned!

It is even a better feeling when they announce...NO CAVITIES!

The kids have theirs next week,

hopefully their check-ups are just as positive?!?!?!

Out with the OLD, In with the NEW

For some reason, first thing Saturday morning

I had the urge to take down all the Halloween Stuff.

So out it went...

And in came the NEW simple fall decor.

I got this plaque from my friends boutique

a few weeks ago and thought this was a

good time to put it up.

And I really do have so much to

BE grateful for...

look at these glowing angels all ready for church

bright and early!

We normally don't have church until 1:00pm,

but our friends were blessing their baby in Orem

@ 9:00am(a good hour drive from our house).

I got up at 6:00 (or so I thought) to shower,

and when I came out of the room (Quinn had been

up early doing school stuff), he reminded me it

was only 5:30 not 6:30! What could I do at that point,

since I was already showered and WIDE awake?

Just make sure we were ready to go on time,

and now I had PLENTY of time to do it!

Halloween-Round 2

We had planned to take the kids out trick-or-treating around 5:30.

Well Quinn got held up somewhere, and the kids

could not wait ANY LONGER, so I took them out

(QUinn caught up with us shortly after). Because we rushed out

the door so quickly I didn't get nearly the pics

I would have like to. I even forgot my camera at first

and had to race back inside to get it b4 Kaipo was

half way down the street. Darth Vader was ready to sit down

and have a snack of candy after the first house! After about 6-8 houses Ash had had enough,

so QUinn took him home (after picking up some pizza)

and they were the candy passer-outer at our house,

while I took the other 2 around the rest of the neighborhood,

or at least until Kaipo had to go Potty (of course).

Luckily we had been to enough houses by that point, so we (or I)

called it good!! Their treat bags were full enough and now

the kids could pass out the candy.

Is it me, or is Halloween just not as exciting as

when WE were kids???

Maybe its just cuz I am NOT a kid anymore!

But I just try my best to make it FUN

& memorable for my kids.

And oh the excitement that those words bring...

*TRICK OR TREAT*

Hope you had a good one!!
