Thanksgiving weekend!!

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. We went to Springfield, Mo to visit Reid's awesome cousin Chris and his wife Jess. We ate LOTS of yummy food, played fun games, and watched some good movies. But the best part was just being together building memories to last forever. Here are some pictures of our trip. enjoy.

our backyard!

One of Reid's favorite things to do with the kids is go in our "backyard". We have miles of forest literally feet from our fence. Every chance they get they are exploring back there. Last week was their latest adventure in the wild. They came across some unexpected visitors while hiking around!!! I love how much my kids love the outdoors!! As a mother, I am SO thankful that I don't have to convince my kids to play outside!

pics of the boys!

I has been a while since my last post, sorry. This is going to be short but sweet. Here are some pics of the boys getting ready to leave for church for the primary program, and on halloween! Life is crazy at the moment with all that is going on. Reid getting his dream job, getting the house ready to sell, and to top it off...wrestling season has started!!! (which means goodbuy to any free time, and hello craziness!)

Happy news!

I just recently found out that two people I know and love very much are expecting!! This is such good news. These two friends of mine were meant to be mothers! I am so excited for them and their new adventure of being pregnant and soon to be mommies!!

WOW!

My good friend Shannon is having her 3rd boy in November! Her baby shower is tomorrow. I decided I would actually try to be creative. WOW, I am very impressed with myself. Those of you who know me, know I am not the craftiest person. I see things and think "I could never do that". Every once in a while I surprise myself at how easy these things are. I hope she likes the gift of diapers.

First day of school!!

I am so proud of my boys!!

Josh was SO excited to get to ride the bus with his "cool" older brother! I can tell that they are going to have a great year.

Last minute trip to Chicago!!

After our trip to Utah, we decided last minute to go see my family in Chicago! It was so fun seeing family we haven't seen in such a long time.

Our trip to Utah

We had such a great time in Utah! We got to do so many fun things with all of Reid's family. It is definitely a trip we won't forget.
