Thanksgiving

We had such a fun Thanksgiving weekend. Trevor's brother Cooper was playing in a football tournament in Las Vegas so we went down to watch with some of his family. His team did great and won all their games! We had a delicious Thanksgiving dinner at Panda Express then went to St. George to spend the rest of the weekend there with my family. We did what we always do there: swam, went on walks, golfed, fed the ducks, etc... We love going to St. George. 

We have so much to be thankful for. We have amazing family and friends, two happy little girls, a nice home, good jobs - being a stay home mom definitely counts - etc... We sure are lucky!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Snow!

We got a couple inches of snow at our house today. What better way to enjoy it than to build a snowman?! This was Laney's first real introduction to snow and I think she liked it! The poor girl was so bundled up that she could only roll around, but she still managed to eat her fair share of snow!

 Molly is a pro snowman builder. She was in heaven. I don't think she even cared that it was freezing! I anticipate a lot of snowman building this winter!

Halloween Fun!

We have had such a fun few days celebrating all things halloween! My girls have pretty much lived in their costumes the past few days. 

Our Music Makers class did a little Halloween Carnival. Molly had a blast playing halloween games and eating treats with all her friends. We had about 40 kids there! 

 We actually carved pumpkins this year! Molly was a little grossed out by the slimy insides, but Laney thought they were tasty!

We went to the aquarium with our friends Emily, Addie, and Logan. The kids got to dress up and they had a little haunted section. The girls mostly just wanted to run around and show off their pretty costumes.

 My Grandma Verda had a tradition of making spudnuts on halloween, so Molly and I made an attempt. They turned out delicious. I quartered my grandma's recipe and it still made about 40 spudnuts... Verda always was the party planner!

 Last but not least, trick-or-treating. Molly was in heaven. She got way too much candy and wanted to eat it all right then. There were so many kids out in our neighborhood last night, I counted 277 trick-or-treaters to our house. Crazy!! 

Halloween is so much fun with little kids!
