A hike to the G

The other evening we hiked up to the G. It was a good time, we were on a time crunch trying to get up before the sunset but we did make it. This was a great hike, kind of steep at the begining but a very reasonable distance for the little ones. Notice the picture of Jonathan and the kids on the trail, Jonathan's ring got caught on moses's collar and he almost got pulled over the edge.

My little supermodel

The other day Annie and I were bored while Morgan was at school and Will was taking a nap. So we dressed Annie up and started experimenting with the new camera. Annie loved doing this, sucked it right up, she is a good model, maybe a little to good.

Happy Halloween

We got a new camera and are totally loving it.

Who doesn't love Halloween

Every year I get excited for Halloween and every year I say I'm gonna dress up but usually I'm so burned out on putting the kids costumes together that I usually decided to forget it. Well this year I broke down and bought the girls their costumes and borrowed Will's, so I was all about doing a costume this year. We had are church Halloween party this weekend so about 24 hours before the party I started putting together our costumes, with a little help from my mom. The best part of our costumes is that it cost me nothing, except that I tore apart some old clothes that we never wear anymore. Happy Halloween

Bowling

For Annika's birthday we took the kids to dinner at the Pizza Factory and then went Bowling. The kids had so much fun bowling and they were pretty amazing, Morgan tied Jonathan at a 120, Annika got a 116, I can't seem to remember what I got and Will was right behind me. Annika had a great birthday, I think she had a smile on her face the entire day.

Goblin Valley

This is Gobblin Valley, if you have not been here you must put it on your things to do list. We went camping with our friends the Andersons two weekends ago and went to some Sand Dunes out by Moab and borrowed some four wheelers and had a blast. We then went to Gobblin Valley and spent the day. This place is so amazing to me, it's not like anything you've ever seen before and the kids had so much fun playing on the gobblins. It was hard to keep track of all the little kiddos though.

Annie's dinosaur

The kids were all so fast it only took ten seconds for them to disappear.

Annie turned 5 today!!! She is so excited to be 5. Annie is so much fun to be around and brings so much spice to our family. She loves to talk, sing, dance and just be girly. Annika is a great sister, big and little. She is always taking care of her little brother and they have become great friends. Annika is also considerate of Morgan's feelings and goes out of her way to make sure she is happy, sometimes. We love her so much and hope she always keeps her spunk.
