Most of November P365

Picture overload ahead. I'm trying to catch up with these and so I'm just dumping most of November on here.

We are excited about our new-to-us couches that came from Kyle's parents. We have been spending a lot more time in the basement with something to sit on!

We've been drying apples like crazy around here! Love them!

We actually have stake basketball here! It's been fun for Kyle- and a good reminder that he's not as young as he use to be. :)

Snow today! The kids have been playing in it all day.

Still snowy outside today, so this is what our railing looks like the majority of the time.

Still snowy. The kids don't care that it's dark, they have just loved playing in it.

Yet another snowy day, although it's starting to melt. Drying stuff off by the fire.

Man alive this kid just doesn't want to be potty trained. Today was a day devoted to it, and still he just doesn't care. GAH!

I finally felt like baking today! After all of the morning-sickness I've had, it's a miracle to want to be in the kitchen again! YAY!

Spencer reading Parker a story. Just thought it was cute so I wanted to take a picture.

One thing I've been craving lately.

Parker has a roll in his hand and Lady will just follow anyone with a roll... She's eyeing him to find the perfect time to snatch that thing out of Parker's hand.

I'm on a roll- I made cinnamon roll pancakes this morning. This is a terrible picture and doesn't quite show the yumminess of them.

Made "slime" with the kids today. They loved it.

A quick game of Guess Who with the kids.

With Kyle and on our date tonight, we had to go to the hospital for a little bit because he was needed. This is the view that I had while I waited for him to finish.

I'm curling up with a book and Lady curls up with me.... every once in awhile she doesn't drive me crazy. :)

Our fireplace all decked out for the Holidays.

Parker and I watched my little niece today. She's so dang cute, but she was not happy that I was watching her... she cried almost the whole time. Someday I'll get this little girl to like me! :)

Kyle took Spencer skiing today. This was his first time skiing, because he wants to be a snowboarder... but we talked him into trying skiing this winter and then we'll let him decide.



And then the next picture is suppose to be Thanksgiving, but I have somehow lost all of our Thanksgiving pictures.... but we had a great time with Kyle's family.

My motivation is starting to dwindle on these, but I don't have much time left until the year is up... so I need to catch up and finish! :)



Today was Spencer's last flag football game. He did really good! It will be kind of sad not to come and cheer him on as a family anymore.

Today Spencer wanted me to take a picture of his flag football trophy that he got.

Our cute pumpkin we did for Halloween.

Spencer's first pinewood derby. He was working on his car for a long time and was so excited to race it.

Carly loves helping me make breakfast.

Our ward party was tonight and so we got the kids all dressed up and ready to go for the trunk or treat. I love this picture.

For Halloween today the kids school was featured on the local news. We sent them to school early for a chance to be on T.V. and look at Spencers moment in the spotlight. He was one of the few students they zoomed in on and boy was he excited!

I finished Kyle's blanket (finally) just in time for the end of the football season. :) Something about pregnancy sickness makes you want to just lay around and not do anything-especially sew. But Kyle was patient with me.

Continuing to catch up....


This morning for YW, we woke up early and kidnapped our newest Beehive. It was a lot of fun to surprise her and have a fun breakfast all together.

For FHE tonight, we joined all the other Mormon families in Salt Lake doing the same thing and went to Gardner Village to check out their witches. It was fun though and the kids loved finding all the witches.

I am loving that Spencer has started playing football with his friends after school at our house. It's so much better than always begging to play the Wii or something. They are pretty good about doing other things, but sometimes they get on a kick where it's the cool thing to do (video games) and it's nice to be in a different phase for now.

Kyle and I flew to San Antonio today for a little get away/work conference. It was nice to be able to just take it easy and not have any plans. This pic is at the Riverwalk mall which was one of our favorite places to go since it was right across from our hotel and it had easy access to the Riverwalk. Love that place!

Walked to the Alamo today and did some other fun things.

Last day in San Antonio. We went on the Riverwalk one last time before we had to catch a taxi to the airport.

The kids had "Wear Red Day" for Red Ribbon week today.

For UEA we went to Moab with my parents. Today we hiked up to Delicate Arch. It was a really fun trip! Spencer was so excited to hike up here to the arch that is on our license plate.

(And I'm not editing the pictures so that I can try to catch up with these so, yes that's a finger in the picture-ha!)

Another fun hike we did today.

I will get caught up on these... so I am not going to be editing them- adding numbers and all that .
Another picture of our poor pumpkins. Headed towards the grave for sure.

Spencers been playing on a flag-football team this fall and he loves it. It's been so fun to go and watch him play!

Tonight I was in charge of a Modesty Party for the YW. It turned out so much better than I thought it would and with all the work that I put into it, this is the only picture I took of the decorations- with my phone! I was just so busy that I forgot. Oh well.

Took this picture of this bush in our neighbors yard. I think they are so pretty and fall-like.

Parker and I love to go on walks in our neighborhood. We always have to stop at this house and look for fish in the little river. The owners of this house put in so much time in their yard and it shows. They do a great job of making it a highlight of our walks! :)

Went to Wheeler Farm with the cousins tonight. I had to take a picture of them all holding hands, even if it was getting a little dark.

General Conference and that means BINGO time.

Carly and her uber curly hair that she wanted for school today.

It rained on and off today and when we went outside, I saw these little drops of water on the flower leaves.

P365 I will never catch up posting these!

Today Parker and I went on a little field trip to the local firestation. It was so much fun and Parker is still talking about it (almost a month later).

Parker is our wanna-be rock star. He turns so many things into "guitars". This is one of them.

Made my dad's famous salsa today... and the onions get me every time!

We pulled out some of Spencer's old toys and all the kids have been kept entertained ALL day with them.
