Happy Birthday Noah!!!

Noah had his 5th birthday this month and instead of having a big birthday party with lots of kids he decided to just invite his very best friend Elliott to go do something special his family. We went out to eat at a restaraunt and then went to Kangaroo Zoo for a couple of hours. Everyone had a blast.

At the restaraunt

Belle in action.

The next three go together, I was trying to snap a pic of them and each time I was about to get it one of them would jump up. Then of course they wanted to see the picture and they just thought it was the funniest thing that their head was cut off in it. It was really funny.


Back at home we sang, Noah blew out his candles, opened his presents, and we had cake and ice cream. What an evening!

Halloween

Finally, here I am at Halloween. Alexa is the frog, Sage is the clown, Noah is Spidey, and Belle is the furball or kittycat.

Lake Powell

In October we were able to fit in one last little vacation to Lake Powell. We went with Grandma & Grandpa and Chrissy's family. It was fun but not quite as warm as I would have liked it.

End of Summer

Ok, I'm sick of going through what we did this last summer and posting it I just want to put in some of my favorite ones, then I will do Halloween and consider myself current. It was good practice though and I think I got it now.

Trevor and Ashley took Sage and Alexa fishing at Deer Creek.

Isabelle was fascinated by the worms the whole time.
We went to the Utah County Fair and saw lots of animals.
All summer we had a large population of Praying Mantis' in our yard and my kids enjoyed collection and playing with them. We were horrified to find out that they were cannibals when we found one killing and eating another while it was still alive and fighting for its life.
This was Noah's first day of preschool with his teacher Miss Jodi. Miss Jodi has the priviledge of being one of the 5 only people who are funny according to Noah.

This is Isabelle on her first day of school with Miss Lindsay. We are sad that Miss Lindsay had to move but she will still be Belle's first preschool teacher.
