Idaho Vacation

We had a wonderful trip to Idaho. The boys did great on the airplane. They were so excited with every landing and take off. The boys had a night of adjustment and then slept pretty good. We all had a blast at the West house. The boys were spoiled with trains and cars, while Michael and I were spoiled with dinner and cable tv.

The boys were so excited to see snow. They were running around and laughing while Dad loaded up the car.

Joshua got a little trim from Grandma. He held pretty still and Grandma did a great job. He looks so handsome.

I think Grandpa was the only person who actually got to hold Dallin without Dallin screaming. Dallin put Grandpa to sleep but Dallin didn't end up sleeping. :)

We had a great time and found ourselves wishing we could spend more time. I even got to go the Haunted Mill for the first time with my sister. Jessica and Jenny gave us a tour of campus. It was so fun to see how much has changed. We had a wonderful time, and can't wait until the next visit.

Pumpkin Patch Fun

We made it to a pumpkin patch this year. We had a great time and the weather was perfect.

The boys enjoyed the train ride. They had a tractor pulling little barrels for the kids. I think Joshua rode it like five times. He loved it. Dallin thought it was ok. Dallin got his face painted and it looked so cute.

The also got to feed some fish. The catfish in the pond were well fed. Most of the food didn't make the water, but the boys enjoyed watching the fish swim around.

We took a little hayride to see the pumpkins. Joshua had to try to pick them all up. We all had a great time. Joshua cried all the way home because he wanted to go back.

Dallin updated stats

Dallin had a well baby check up today. He is doing great! He is in the 50th percentile in weight coming in around 24 1/2 pounds and is in the 90th for height measuring a tall 33 inches. He sceamed every time he saw the nurse and was right back to happy as soon as she left the room. Joshua got his flu shots as well, and Dallin screamed for him. Joshua took them like a champ! No crying. I feel so blessed that my babies are healthy and happy!

Sleep Over

We had fun on Sunday when we watched a couple of boys for the night. My boys had a blast.

Michael taught them how to make balloon dogs and then it all turned to swords. Go Figure. :)

Fall Camping

Joshua and Dallin are great little campers!

We had a great time camping this weekend. We went to Lake Texoma. It was my first time in Oklahoma. :) We went with some friends of ours. We had yummy stew for dinner and cobbler for dessert. We stayed warm and cozy around the fire, or by going on little hikes to the fishing pier.

Michael did a great job packing and planning for our camp out. He just forgot the hot dogs, which we planned to have for lunch the next day. Luckily there was a store near by.

The kids slept pretty good. They did not even get up until after seven in the morning. The kids are hanging out by the campfire in the morning. We got them all warmed up by going to the lake. We had to walk down lots of stairs, but the kids enjoyed the view.

We had a nice relaxing weekend. They even had a little playground where the kids had fun going down the slide. They don't make slides like this anymore. You fly off it! The boys did great until we got home and then they were a little cranky but after a nice warm shower we were all back to normal. We had a great time and love to camp with the Williamsons!

Fire Ants

Joshua is handling it very well. He tells me Ms. Elise fixed it. She applied bleach right away. He is taking a little more caution around ant hills. I am grateful I had my two friends with me who grew up in Texas.

Puzzle and family pics

Joshua and I finished our North America puzzle. He wanted to look at pictures and not be in one, which is why he looks so sad. He can pick out Texas, and that is about it, but it was fun. Joshua is at that age where you never know what he is going to say. At Church I told him he could have a snack if he sat quietly and folded his arms until the end of the speaker. Then he looked at the speaker and yelled out Say Amen, Say Amen.

Dallin has been so moody, and throwing hug fits. He likes to bang his head on the floor and roll around. He is teething still, so I hope it will get better soon. He is doing well other than that. He is starting to say a few more words like Go and What's That.

We are trying to take a family picture. There is always one of us who isn't looking or smiling right. Oh well. We try. Michael has been busy cleaning gutters and working hard tearing up our bathroom with the Meagers.
