Happy Halloween!

We had fun going to a Trunk or Treat for our branch. A couple of neighbors came with us. There were alot of people there. Alexis had a little Halloween party at school and got to dress up. She was a sparkly white fairy or snow fairy. Colbie was a sweet pea. We are planning on staying in tonight and doing some light trick or treating due to Alexis and I having colds. We are going to watch the new Tinkerbell movie with Alexis and make pumpkin sugar cookies. Hopefully we will get a few cute little trick or treaters. I love Halloween! News on the other front is that our house will be done in 20 days! We are closing Nov. 20th and are so excited. I will have to get current pictures up soon. Happy Halloween everyone!

Smiles, Laughs,Snow?!

We woke up to snow last week and it was cold! It didn't last long, but it did remind me of what is to come. I felt winter knocking at the door.This was a family dinner where I decided to put Colbie up on the table in her "Bumbo" seat (even though she hadn't burped after eating which is always dangerous) she ended up throwing up every where just narrowly missing our dinner we all jumped pretty good when it happened! We all laughed. Good one Colbie!
Colbie is almost as big as Alexis! Just kidding! She is getting bigger by the day.
They grow so fast!

Colbie sleeps exactly like her daddy and here is the picture to prove it!
These are a couple smiles I caught on camera.
I love the fleeting spontaneous smiles that come from a baby.
Thank goodness for digital cameras or I woudn't have caught these at all!
Mom What did you do to my hair!
This was a hair idea gone bad. I just chuckled at this one and had to take lots of pictures. I thought why don't I put two flowers on each side to kindof look like pigtails?...ha ha.... Alexis and I called her our little lion. Isn't she a cute little lion?

Family

It was so good to have my Mom and two of my sister's come and visit. I got to see my darling nephew Tanner too! Since Colbie is 1 month old now (I can't believe it) I faired going to the zoo. It was fun that I was able to finally get out a bit. We got to eat at the fabulous Cheese Cake Factory and go to the mall.... a luxury ....it doesn't happen to often while we are in Columbus Nebraska. We also blessed Colbie after the broadcast of the Sunday morning General Conference. I miss having them here already! I miss Tanner's happy giggles, Stacie and Lisa's funny songs, and visiting with my mom face to face. Thanks for coming to visit!!!!!! Even though my mom just broke her leg and had surgery on it she still came! What a trooper! Here she is with 3 of the Grandkids.

Tanner and the cool pose
Everyone having fun at the zoo!
What a nice aunt... Lisa makes my kids the cutest blankets and always gives thoughtful little gifts to them. Here is a blanket she made for Alexis because she knows how much Alexis loves soft fleece.
Stacie also made my girls the cutest hair bows!
Blessing day. Grandma and my two darlings.
