November 2011

 Well, November was an exciting month for us. Brian arranged to work with his Uncle Alan in Arizona and he spent most of the month in Snowflake. We also got to be in Mesa for Katie and Brandon's wedding and reception and then Thanksgiving with the DeWitts back in Snowflake.

One day, we went to the park and played in the leaves. We were laughing and had a great time.

 I think this was the highlight of my trip. Great Grandpa DeWitt joined us on a day-trip to the Painted Desert and the Petrified Forrest. Both amazing and the kids loved exploring with their Dad.

Halloween 2011

Darth and Rapunzel

The frying pan was Brian's idea - everyone loved it!

Go Devils! Thanks Carolyn and Grammy for the costume.

Somehow, potato head pumpkins in underwear have become a Halloween tradition in NV.

 I love this new tradition: The pumpkin patch with the wardies. Grandma got to come this year!

It was unseasonably HOT! Can you tell?

The train ride at the end. Shhh... that's Lukas's girlfriend, Lucy Faux, sitting by him (heeheehee).

Temple Trip

 Here's our handsome boy at his Primary Temple Trip. He's just so big I can hardly stand it.



Roxy Baby Blessing

This was a mini photo shoot with "the big kids" (a new phrase used frequently at our house).



Thanks Grammy for hosting!



This picture puts a lump in my throat to see all the amazing men who love my daughter and honor their priesthood.



Smiles for Daddy




Mom, Grandmas, and Great-Grandmas




Lukas turns 5

We were lucky that Jason and Stacey had their wedding reception and gave us a good excuse to come home and celebrate Lukas's birthday and Roxy's baby blessing with all our family.

Gunner is modeling Grammy and Grandpa DeWitt's contribution. The bouncy water slide was obviously a big hit and I was pleasantly surprised that there were no injuries.

Birthday Boy

Here's Brian's contribution. :)

Love for LEGOs!

He gets frustrated with me when I play this with him - he's that good.

I can't tell you how nice it is to have a cake decorator in the family! Nice job Katie!!

Preschool times 2

Brookie turns 3

We had a few friends over for pizza on Brookie's birthday and for her year without a party she got a pretty big party. Thanks to everyone who came!

Opening Presents

Grammy held Roxy and cooked the pizza, phew.

Thanks Dad!
