Family

On Saturday night my sister Ashley surprised us by coming home for Thanksgiving. She has been in Massachusetts going to school. We didn't think that we were going to see her until May of next year so we were so excited. Sunday we were at my Moms house for an early Thanksgiving dinner so we decided to take a picture of all of us. It's not often that we are all together since she went away.

Boys will be boys!

Travis finally got to take his new toy out! We have had this 4 wheeler for about a month or so and the only place Trav drove it was around the circle. He went out saturday with my step-dad Brent and my step-brother Dallin to play in the mud. He came home such a mess but enjoyed every second of it.

Dallin helping Trav get the 4 wheeler out of the mud before it tipped over!

Brent took all of these pictures and sent them to my phone. I love this one of Travis!

Halloween Night

On Halloween we stopped by Travis's parents house and Trav took Kylee Trick or Treating around the circle. She loved it and was so happy to get some candy. Our ward does Trunk or Treat but it didn't work out for us to go to that but she at least got to do a little bit. After that we went to the Telfords house for dinner.

That is Kylee's cheese face. She will not smile for pictures...It drives me crazy

Put 'em up! This is Austin (Trav's brother)

My sister Katie. She dressed in her husbands care bear costume from when he was about 5 years old or something. It was a little small but it made the costume so much better!

Sorry ladies...He is taken! This is the extent of Travis dressing up.

Mckenzie's cute princess costume.

I had Cole and Kylee give eachother a hug for the picture and after in a quiet little voice Kylee says "I love you" it was cute

Jeremy and Autumn. Words cannot explain! Just joking guys...Thanks for having us over!

Witches Night Out.

Gardner Village has a witches night out every year that we go to. We went out to dinner before we went to party and dance.

Kylee and I were dancing for a while and then she decided that she wanted to go out by herself and she went crazy. She had so much fun!

A whole lot of witches!

Travis's Aunt Chris has a witch party every year. It is so much fun to get together and a good excuse to dress up. We have dinner, do a craft and spend a few hours without kids!

Party Time!

I love this time of year with all of the family and friend parties to go to. This party was at Travis's aunts house. It was so much fun even though our Bunko game was extremely out of control! Trying to explain how to play and having a loud family do not go together very well.

Kylee did not want to cooperate to get her picture taken yesterday. This is the best one I could get of her ballerina costume
The Party Pooper picture
I was boring this year and didn't have a costume so at the last minute I found some Tiger ears to wear..I blame it on the pregnancy! I have no drive to do anything.
All of the kids...of course Kylee had been crying. She is terrified of Halloween and everyone dressed up scared her.
Peter Pan and Tinkerbell! I have to give Chad props not every man would be okay with dressing up in that costume!

Carving pumpkins!

Kylee loves her little pumpkin. She hasn't stopped carrying it around for 2 days.
For someone who didn't want to carve pumpkins Travis sure got into it!

Tonya, Marlin, Austin and me.
The finished project!
Ali and Chad. They are getting married in February and I am so excited.
Marlin, Austin and Ali's dad Tim.
Carla (Ali's mom) and Tonya took care of the pumpkin seeds to roast instead of carving their own pumpkins.Everyone's glowing pumpkins!

Dreading the last few months!!

I came across these pictures and I wanted to share them with everyone. When I was pregnant with Kylee I got so swollen...obviously! This wasn't even the worst of it. These pictures were about 8 months pregnant. I am hoping that the cold weather will help me not to swell up like a balloon. With Ky I had her in June and there was record heat in May. It was absolutely horrible. I couldn't even wear flip flops without big marks from where they sat. I just remember a week or two after I had Kylee I could start to see ankle bone and I was so excited!

Kylee's big girl bed

We just set up Kylee's bed and she was so excited! It is not quite finished yet, I am going to make her a comforter to go on it with the same material from her little quilt that is laying on the end of the bed. She was so funny, we set it up for her and she got a blanket and was ready for bed. She didn't come out for about 10 minutes or so. She just wanted to lay in her bed. I had to walk out because I started crying. Travis of course was making fun of me but my baby is all grown up. I love that she is getting older but it makes me so sad that it is happening so fast.
The netting will be alot cuter when I can turn the bed but for now having only one side of the bed that she can fall off of will be nice!

A little something....

My camera hasn't been working so I feel like without pictures I don't have much to blog right now. I figured I could just give an update on what has been going on in our family. Travis has been staying busy with work and now school is starting. He stays busy on the weekends with hunting. He hasn't got anything yet but he usually holds out for something a little bit bigger than what he got the year before. By the end he will just go for one to have the meat. He works so hard for us and I am so grateful for him . I just have been working on getting fat! The belly is getting big and I can feel the little guy move more and more. It is so fun and it makes everything hard during pregnancy that much more worth it. It is such an amazing thing and I am so grateful to be able to go through it when there are so many women who can't. Kylee is just getting so big and grown up. She amazes me with some of the things she says. I love it when she asks me how my day was or other grown up questions. Yesterday I was on my way home from work and I was talking to her on the phone. After she said bye I thought where is the world did my baby go! She sounded so grown up on the phone. I am so lucky to have my great family and I love them so much.
