It's a princess party!

I love having Brynlee in school. She is making so many friends. So when she said she wanted to have a party, she knew exactly who she was going to invite. And of course the theme had to be princess. In the invitations, we told the girls to wear their princess dresses. They were so cute! We played some games, made picture frames and bracelets, had cake and ice cream, opened presents, and of course danced! Here are the girls decorating their frames: We had taken individual pictures of them for their frames. Here is how they turned out: They were so funny when it was time to open presents. It was like they couldn't get close enough! All of her friends were so generous! I think Brynlee had a blast! Thanks to my mom and Nicole for helping out! We love our Brynlee-lu-hu and can't believe she is six! Even though she can get quite sassy, she is usually a huge help and I don't know what I would do without her. Love you Bryn and Happy Birthday!!!

Pumpkin Walk

Every year that we have been married, Jason and I have gone to the pumpkin walk in Logan. I think I like it because it is the first time each year that we get to get all bundled up. When we went this year it was snowing and freezing! It was fun as always and my kids had a blast. Afterwards we all went over to Stacey's for some chili and spice cake for Bryn and Jason's birthday.

Halloween 2009

On Halloween, Jason's mom and step-dad were in town for the week. On Saturday morning we headed up to Logan to see them and Jason's sisters. We had lunch at Juniper take-out (which I love and totally miss!). Then we took the kids trick or treating down Main Street. It was such a nice day and the kids had a ball! All us right before we went.
My kids with Cami, Sheena's daughter. We missed Stacey's kids!!!
After we were done, we headed over to Jason's grandparents house to say hi and see his dad. When his dad came in with his costume on, Bryn and Sky wanted nothing to do with him. Skylar was so scared he was on the verge of tears! But Katie didn't seem to mind. I love going to Jason's grandparents house. It has the most beautiful view! This is what I got to look at while I was nursing! The most amazing view of the Logan Temple. Jason and I lived in Cache Valley most of our marriage, and while I was living there you would have never heard me say "I want to live here forever!" But now that I don't, I seriously miss it. What other place can you go to the pumpkin walk, trick or treating down main street and have views like that.(Plus some of my favorite girls live there...you know who you are ;)) The kids with Jason's grandparents. After that, we headed back to Ogden to go trick or treating in Plain City. Jason's mom & step dad and sister came back with us. My camera died so I wasn't able to get any pictures, but trust me, the kids made a haul. It was a great day! I personally think that Halloween should be on a Saturday every year!

Kindergarten Festivities

I need to play blog catch-up. I am going to start with Bryn's fun school activities. Her birthday party was before this, but the pictures are on another computer, so I will have to just post that tomorrow.
On the 29th Brynlee turned 6! It is so crazy to me. These last 6 years have flown by. And if the next 6 years go just as fast, I will have a 12 year old before I know it. Scary! It was her special day at school on her birthday. She made a little book about herself and made a paper doll of herself and then presented it to the class. Then the teacher gave the class a little quiz about what they learned. It was too cute! Then she introduced her family to them. I wish I would have gotten a picture of all of us there, but I didn't, so I just took pictures of her being the helper as we were leaving.
It was wear your jersey day at school for red ribbon week so she got to show everyone how she bleeds purple :).
On Friday the 30th, the school had the annual Halloween party. I got to volunteer, so I was able to watch Brynlee do all the activities.

Trunk or Treat

I know everyone is shocked that I have posted twice in one day! Amazing I know, but we are getting into that time of year where there is A LOT going on with stuff that I will want to post (since this is about the extent of scapbooking my memories:)) So I thought I better keep up with it. On Wednesday the YM/YW in our ward did truck or treat for all of the primary kids. The kids were excited to get their costumes out and get some candy. Katie was a little unsure about the tutu, but she had fun anyway!
The last week in October is always a super busy week for us. We have Brynlee and Jason's birthday, my mom's fun Halloween party, and of course trick or treating. This year we have to add in Brynlee's birthday party, her special day at school, and her Halloween Carnival at school. I hope everyone has a great Halloween week! It is the beginning of so many fun holidays!!! Let the festivities begin!!!

Pumpkin Patch

Last Saturday Jason & I took the family to a pumpkin patch in Syracuse. It was really fun except that it turned out to be like a million degrees. I think the kids favorite part was all of the slides.
They got to shoot corn cannons, ride a train, watch the pig races, and of course go through the corn maze! And then of course there was picking the pumpkins and coming home to carve them. It was a great day!
