Billy Ray Rocks!

Ok, so it is Halloween time and my hubby, Jason, is always a good sport and gets into the spirit of the holiday. This year Savannah wanted to be Hannah Montana and so Jason decided (actually we decided for him) that he was going to be Billy Ray Cyrus. You have to watch the video below, I promise - it will make you smile for the rest of the day!

Ok, I'm really sad I can't turn it so you can see it right side up. You'll have to turn your head sideways to get the full effect. I should have held the camera the other way when I was recording. I can't figure out how to flip it. Anyone know? I am special.

She's Home!

Well, she finally made it home! Thursday my little sister, Jana, came home from the Eugene, OR mission. I can’t believe that is has already been 18 months. We got to go to the St. George airport and welcome her home. Jason and I barely made it there in time. In fact, the plane landed before we even got there. There was a livestock truck that wrecked on the freeway and we got stopped up in that mess for a bit. We did get there in time to see her get off the airplane. These pics didn’t turn out great. The sun was shining and ruined all my plans for good pictures. We are glad to have Jana back home! We missed her a lot!

Pictures to die for!

Ok, this is a shout out to Emily from Wink Fotos. Today she took pics of my little darlings and they are so beautiful, I have to share them with you all. Her blog is winkfotos.blogspot.com. She did such an amazing job! Thanks Emily.

Aunt Jana, I am so excited to meet you!

As you can see on the right hand side of my screen I am counting down the days until my little sister, Janalee, will be home from the Eugene, Oregon mission. She will be flying into the St. George Airport on Thursday evening. We can hardly wait for her to meet Leah!

Ava's first field trip

Ava had her first field trip last friday with Mrs. Woolsey's preschool class. They went to the fire station on 800 west and to the new safety house. It was really cute and a good presentation for the little tikes. I was glad she was able to go and learn about fire safety.
They even got to sit in the big fire truck. They could have probably fit their whole class on that front seat! This was everyone's favorite part was seeing the fire trucks.

This "firefighter" was actually one of the dad's who came with his son to the field trip. They said that once they put all of their gear on it weighs about 60 lbs. Yikes! Glad I'm not a firefighter.

She did it, she rolled over!

My little Leah girl rolled over for the first time today. I walked in the kitchen to put something away and when I came back this was how I found her - she wasn't too impressed, but after the first time she just couldn't stop! She rolled over 5 times today. Awww, she is getting so big!

Autumn Leaves Are Falling!

We drove up to Cedar Mountain this afternoon to see all the beautiful fall leaves. First we stopped up at kids pond and the kids talked us into letting them fish for a little bit. I just happened to have their poles and tackle box in the back of the van so we let them. I was glad they didn't catch anything today! Fishing wasn't really in the plans. After kids pond we drove up by the "C". I was sad because all the red leaves are gone and it snowed up on the mountain this weekend. The yellow leaves were still pretty though. I love Cedar Mountain!
Jason told the kids to do a crazy dance - they have so much fun when he is around. Fishing at Kids pond.

Baby Leah's first autumn outing.
