Halloween!!

Well Halloween has come and gone, i hope everyone had a great holiday! We did. We got to go over to Jerry and Helenas for a little party! We took Ave trick or treating for a little bit. She is not quite old enough to get it and was more nervous around the strangers than she was excited for free candy. She did get into GIVING candy tot eh trick or treaters though! Her and little Alan had a blast as Jerry and Helenas home was bombarded with masses of trick or treaters! They kept grabbing giant handfuls of candy to hand out to all the children. It was soo cute! We got to watch a movie and eat burgers! And the pumpin role I must say was absolutley delicious!! The best part of the night though was playing Taboo! Poor Mike was having the hardest time with it and the butterfly scenario was hilarious! You had to be there I think... Mike and Ash dressed up like white trash fro the party and Jerry was Wolverine. They were some pretty awesome costumes! Well that was our halloween. We had a good time and hopefully next year Ave will be more excited!

Avery is an aspiring supermodel...




We made her a cowgirl incase you couldn't tell. She wouldnt not let us put on her bandana....

October

Well October has been crazy! It has gone by so fast, I can't believe its almost over! So here is what we have been up to. We finally got our backyard all done! We now have grass and flowers! Yay! My mom came down and helped us get the grass laid and the sprinkler/drip system all set up. It is so nice to be able to go outside and have grass! I love it!


Some highlights from this month are Cord and I got to take Ave and Addi down to Salt River a couple of times. They loved it! Avery loves water and got right in even though it was freezing! And Addi was very excited she kept swimming and jumping through the water.







We Also got to see Ryan and Velda for a little bit at Mike and Ashleys. It was nice to see them! Speaking of Mike and Ash I think Avery just loves them. Every time we hang out she loves to have pillow and punching fights with her uncle mike and aunt ash! It is so hilarious.







Averys birthday was this month. She turned two!! We invited folks over and had a partay! It was a little nuts with all the people in our tiny house but we made it work and had a great time! Raylin was hilarious, she just ate the whole time. She would even steal other peoples food and just down it, where does it all fit? Lol And her dancing! She was a highlight of the night. We also got to go to the park and play a little frisbee with all the kids. Thanks to everyone who came, Avery loved it!







For Averys birthday we got her a trampoline. She loves her JUMP as she calls it. Here are some pictures of her on it.






So thats it for now. I hope everyone has a great rest of October and Happy Halloween!

Another Vegas Weekend

So Ave and I flew down to Vegas again this past weekend for a double birthday party for my niece and nephew Rory and Aidric. It was very fun, we got to hang out and help get everything ready for the party. We got to see my grandma and aunts and uncles and cousins, as well as friends we hadn't seen in forever. Amy and Tim your little girls are so adorabale congrats! There were some downs though. Ave had a bit of trouble sleeping so we only got a few hours a night, but we made it through! Here are some pics of Ave at the party and when we got home.

Vegas and Sleep

So Avery has had a full weekend. We drove to Vegas and then up to Cedar to see Velsa and Steve, Emily, Nate, Mjay, Trist and Ransom. She went to bed late and ran around played some football with guys and got chucked around by the men in house. She loved every minute. She even saw some baby birds in a nest outside the house with her Aunt Emily. It was very fun. Well we drove back to Vegas and are now haing out with my mom. This morning we woke up and played and then swam and aftert hat Ave was so worn out she went right to sleep. Well after about 2 hours she woke up but was so tired I guess that she fell asleep right on my leg and then proceeded to roll all over a pillow on the floor, staying asleep the whole time. I thought it was funny so I am posting some pictures.
