Fall in Utah!!


Sorry it has been a while...we r all moved into our new house (pics comming soon) but things have been super crazy. This was at Cornbellys, a fun farm / pumpkin place for the kids.



London loved playing in this room full of corn seeds!! Watch out

The Cold Season is here...

The fall weather is why I think I can stand Michigan (I really hate the winters here). The trees are amazing, and I love breaking out my jeans and light jackets! With this comes our yearly visit to the local apple orchards. We made it out there a little late this year, but still got to enjoy one last fall moment. We walked around the petting farm with our hot cider and donuts...it doesn't get better than that!






Kyree is still loving his school experience. He is doing really well in his class and has made a lot of friends. I still have to work really hard to get any information out of him, his life is quite the secret...and I am the nosey mom trying to get all the details.

Marley is almost 11 months now. She crawls around like crazy and is into everything! She keeps me busy for sure. Her bottom two teeth finally broke through. She has to be pretty tough to put up with Ky...and she is up for the challenge. I have to almost pin her down to change her diaper and to get her into the car seat. Karma is a biotch.

Weekend from Hell


(this picture is how I felt for the past 5 days) Wanna hear about my weekend from hell? Jarom had to go out of town for business Saturday, returning home last night. Well, Saturday NIGHT, the hot water heater breaks AND the dishwasher breaks. On top of it all, I was starting my new teaching job on Monday (YEAH!), and had to do the whole daycare thing as well. Normally, Jarom would take the kids to school each morning. But since he was out of town, I had to a ask a friend to come over to our house for 3 days at 6:30 every morning and do the kids daily morning routines. Fun. With loads of laundry everywhere, dirty dishes all over the kitchen, a messy house, and bags under my eyes from no sleep, I told Jarom if he ever goes on a business trip again - expect a note when he gets home!!!! JK Talk about bad timing. When it rains, it poors. On a positive note, teaching is going GREAT!!!! LOVE my little 4th grade class. It's pretty fun to be teaching again!

Joni, YEAH on your baby's coming out date! Tracy, SUCH a cute dress on you!!! Love you all!!!
We all had a great time visiting Utah for 3 days for Laurel's wedding! The kids were all in pink for the reception and temple picture. Eli goes," I can't wear pink, Mommy. That's a girl color." Jarom tried telling him that only really strong men can wear pink.

Snow!

Mikey woke up from his nap yesterday and was so excited to see snow. He LOVES the snow. Today he kept saying "snow" "ball" and "dada." He wasn't happy with me today when I didn't let him play outside. He laid down on the kitchen floor and wouldn't move.

The dog barking in the background is our neighbor's dog, Riley. We have to go out and buy a sled this weekend. It's supposed to snow more this week. It's going to be a fun winter!

I scheduled my c-section. The next niece will be born February 16th, unless I go into labor before. 3 more months!

Miss you. Joni

So sorry to be a blog hog, but I got these pics from Jason's friends that he works with. Jason and I were so lucky to be able to go to the Ronald MacDonald House charity dinner. His boss had bought a table, so we went and had some fun. AND there is a new Alyssa's Bridal and Formal dress shop up the road from me, so I got to get a new dress. Felt like I was going to prom and I LOVED my dress, even though I may never ever fit it again (haha). Love you guys!
