Field trip for preschool.



Pumpkin patch.





Family hike.

Our camera broke in Disneyland and we bought a new one. I am still trying to figure out exactly how to get pictures from the new camera onto our computer. I got them on Facebook, so we will see how they transfer to the blog.

We have had a busy month!! We went to Disneyland about six weeks ago and it seems that ever since we got back it has been go, go, go!! We had a great time in Disneyland (more on that later) and we have really loved the month of October and Halloween. Jack started school and played soccer this fall. He loves his new class and he loves going three days a week. He is learning so much. His poems this year are twice as long as last year and it is so fun to see how much better he has them memorized, even though they are longer. He is singing way more songs and learning how to write his letters. He gets homework every week to practice his writing and coloring. His coloring is actually very improved and he can stay in the lines quite nicely. We had his 1st primary program last week and he was the kid who was singing the loudest and longest of the bunch. It was so cute. At one point in one of the songs they were singing it said something about Jesus walking through dust and Jack puffed his hands up like a dust cloud and then gave us a thumbs up. It was so fun to watch him. He loved playing soccer and actually scored a goal during one game. He is the happiest kid around and except for when he is tired... he is nothing but a joy to have around. He loves his games, his scooter and his friends. That boy makes me prouder by the day!

Savannah is nine months old now. She has 6 teeth and has been crawling for over a month. She is pulling herself up and walking along things and today she actually stood on her own for a good 30 seconds! She loves her mama and I have to say that I love that because Jack is totally a daddys boy, which is fine because he is a boy. I love that my girl wants to be with me and no one else! She is still the best baby around... starting to say "Ba Ba" and the "M" sound. We still rock her to sleep every night and fall more in love with her daily. She is right at my most favorite age and I am so excited to continue to watch her grow.

In other news, we did the typical Halloween stuff this year... witches at Gardner Village, Haunted Trail (in the pouring rain and hail), carving pumpkins, pumpkin patch and plenty of Halloween shows. We have had FAB weather and it has been an awesome fall. We were able to get out on a family hike up Ensign Peak... we bought new appliances for our kitchen (stainless steel) and my sister had a little boy named Crew. I think that about catches us up except for Disneyland and I am really going to try to be better about keeping this thing updated!

Holy Cow! I must have missed the memo that Kris was expecting. Please tell her congrats for me!!! We need to get together for a little Cousin Camp Reunion. I wonder if Kris will teach her little one all about the King of the Little People.
