Twister and babies!

The kids were finally introduced to the game Twister. They now cannot get enough. The last two Sundays they have played it at their Grandma and Grandpa Moss' house. It is hilarious watching Nick, Kellie, and the kids play. They always end up getting really silly!

Madelyn LOVES her new cousins. She loves to hold them and help take care of them. Whenever they are around she is always close by. Aubrey and Isaac love the twins too, but they aren't as obsessed with them as Madelyn is :)

31st Birthday Celebrations

We had lots of fun celebrating Nick's birthday. The kids and I decorated his car, made him an apple pie, made him tacos with homemade shells, and also made him raspberry bars. Thats alot of candles to blow out :)

Pumpkins



I have been excitedly waiting for Halloween this year because we were able to get six pumpkins from our garden. The kids had fun a few Sundays ago picking them.
They even made a pumpkin snowman out of them. It was nice not having to go buy pumpkins and fun spending time picking them as a family. Now we will see if we get around to carving them.

Birthday cake!

I should have posted this quite a while ago, but Happy Birthday Amy! I made this cake for her, mostly because I wanted chocolate :)

Applesauce!

We have two dwarf apple trees in our backyard that decided to produce almost as many apples as a large tree. I decided to use some of the apples to make yummy applesauce. Amy was nice enough to come over and help me again. It ended up being a lot of work, but after watching my kids faces while eating it I decided it was worth it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I just wanted to write and say Happy 31st Birthday to my amazing husband. You are such an example to our children and to me. Thanks for all you do and for putting up with the birthday celebrations! I will post pictures later.

Bravery!

I am in awe every time I look at the four staples in my son's head. He is simply the bravest little person I have ever met. My little Isaac cut his head open on the edge of a table and barely even cried. He then let us torture him more with super glue, which in the end wasn't able to keep his head closed. To top it all off he was taken to the Dr. who preceded to put staples in his head without any numbing medication. There was no crying, no kicking, no screaming. There were only a few tears in his eyes and then a big smile when he was given the stapler (and then when he got McDonalds). All I can say is that I am so very proud to be his Mother and that this better be the last time we have to go through something like this. Isaac may be able to take it, but his parents sure can't.

Birthday!

I had a very fun birthday! I got to go to dinner and be spoiled by my husband, I went shopping in Park City (I found some cute new clothes for me), and I got to have yummy cream puffs at my in-laws house. Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes.
