Halloween Fun!

I love being a stay at home mom!! These past few months I have felt so blessed to spend quality time with Hailey and Colin. Hailey and I have been able to do fun things together that would never be possible if I worked. Hailey is at such a fun age... she appreciates so many things, like the holidays. So, I took the opportunity to have a small gathering of cousins and friends over for some Halloween Fun!

We started with some Halloween stories...

Then worked on some crafts...






Next we ate PB&J with Halloween sprinkles and...

Mummy Hot Dogs done by Daddy...


And ended with decorating and eating cupcakes!




All in all the day was a success!! We are so happy that our cousins and friends could join us in celebrating Halloween and creating some fun memories!

Pumpkin Patch

This weekend is the annual Pumpkin Festival at Cal Poly Pomona. We woke Daddy up early and met Auntie Terri, Uncle Sol, Peyton, and our friends the Yarrobinos there. There were pumpkins everywhere! It was a great time, however I wish it was a little cooler.

Photo Shoot

I have been wanting to do a family photo shoot for quite some time. It came up in discussion with a woman in our ward, Jessica Brunson, who told us that she was the "ward photographer." The photo shoot was taken at some horse trails in Rancho Cucamonga. I am so pleased with all of the pictures. She did an amazing job! I really appreciate Jessica for doing this for our family. Here are only some of the great shots...it was difficult leaving some out!
