Cupcakes!

For Nick's 35th birthday I made Heath Bar cupcakes for him to take to work. They were a big hit and tasted really yummy!! I want to try Snickers cupcakes next!

Fall Festival

Our church ward had a fall festival/trunk or treat. We ate yummy chili and corn bread and had lots of sugary snacks. My favorite part of the night was Lucas' candy choo choo train.

Lost Tooth

Maddie was soo excited to lose her first tooth on October 2nd 2012. She pulled it our herself! The Tooth Fairy brought her a Barbie Peek-A-Boo and $2.

Awesome Isaac

Isaac HAD to play soccer again this year. He said it was all he wanted to do (that and basketball). Nick is his coach again mostly because they didn't have anyone else to do it. Coach trusted Isaac to be goalie the second half of this last Saturdays game and guess what . . . he didn't let anyone score on him. (The first half there were 3 goals scored on them.) Isaac dove this way and that and caught every ball kicked toward his goal. Isaac is awesome!

 Look at that focus!

 And determination!

BYU Women's Volleyball

Now that we live far away from BYU territory I didn't think we would ever be able to go to a game again. :( Well I was wrong. The women's volleyball team was invited to play at George Washington University a few weekends ago. They played a few games that weekend and we were able to fit one of them into our schedule. I had heard how awesome their team was, but I was very impressed. The kids had lots of fun and now realize how awesome their mom (who use to play) really is. BYU killed the home team and they even handed out posters afterwards and we got to say hi to a few players as they were leaving in their cars. Aubrey has decided she would like to try playing.

Poor Maddie

Our poor Maddie got croup a few weeks ago and had to go to the ER. She woke up and could barely breathe at all. We put her in the bathroom with the hot shower running and it only helped a tiny bit. At the ER she had to take some steroids and do a few breathing treatments. I guess it wasn't busy at all because she had 4 nurses and a few Doctors waiting on her hand and foot. Maybe that is why she is smiling in this picture. :)

Fun with Friends and Family part 2

Nick just recently found a bunch of pictures from before we moved on his phone.

I wrote a post about going to St. George titled fun with friends and family. When we were down in St. George we went to Aladdin at the Tuacahn (an outdoor theater back in the red rocks). It is done by Disney and had quite a few new songs. The kids loved it, but especially loved the flying carpet part. Lucas stayed home with Grandpa and Grandma because he wasn't old enough to go and I don't think he would have sat through it anyways.

 I also had the opportunity to help with our ward's float in the Lehi City parade (which is also in the other post I mentioned). The float was titled "gumball round-up". The kids got to dress like cowboys and play with "gumballs". It was soooo hot, but they did a great job. Nick and I also got to walk with them to make sure they were hydrated.
