Say what you will, parties, pumpkins, fall leaves, candy etc, as usual, Halloween is really all about what you wear, how cute you are in it, and who sees you in it! Arent the babies the cutest in their little outfits??? Miss them!

Ok maybe I am getting old!

Last week we were at Vern and Barbara's, and I found a small bottle of what I thought was lotion. Who needs glasses, when I can obviously tell what it is? So I immediately started applying lotion to myself, my arms, and my legs. After a few minutes, I noticed that I felt greasy rather than smooth. Putting on my glasses, I saw that I had just applied head and shoulders shampoo to myself---ewww! Then this week I was visiting my mom and decided to curl her hair. I had to go to the locked cupboard to get the hairspray, again without my glasses. I found a tall bottle of a nice pink color that said Suave on it, with 24 underneath. Well, Suave makes hair products, right? and 24 must mean super hold. So I took it back into my mothers room, and started to spray it on her hair. I noticed it was kind of powdery, but thought it must be kinda old. When I finished I brought it back out front, and told the caregivers I was going to put away the hair spray. They all looked at me strangely and then started laughing, and told me I had just curled my mother's hair with Suave Deodorant!! (I didn't know Suave made deodorant!) Luckily my poor mom's hair was powdery, rather than greasy. I guess I am going to have to wear my glasses around my neck so I can see always! Oh dear.

Homecoming!!

The whole group!

Heidi and her date, GarrettAlyssa, Heidi and Kierstin.

Heidi was very exicted to go to Homecoming! She went with friends from our ward, and her date was a boy she went to kindergarten with! We had lots of fun taking pictures, and everyone was excited for their big evening! Thanks to Heidi's sisters for helping to make her so glamorous and beautiful!

More labor day fun

Our beautiful family!!

A very friendly bear in Yellowstone

Yep right in the middle of the road-a buffalo

After visiting with the kids and taking Adam on up to Rexburg, we went on to Yellowstone. It was absolutely beautiful. We would have stayed longer, but the park was completely booked up for the night!

My grandbabies really ARE the cutest!

I know that many think that their grandbabies are the cutest, but after looking at these photos, I am sure you will agree that these grandbabies actually are!!! We spent labor day partly with them, and feel we never see them enough! They are both scooting now, and Baby B is eating food which he is very happy about! Love them!

New old times!

Heidi sitting with her team!

First day of school for Heidi! This year Heidi has left cheerleading, she has cheered for 5 years total, to join her school dance team. She is our fourth daughter to be on the school team, so it feels like old times to be back! She just had her first performance at a game, and loved it! I am grateful for two more years with a child at home!

More beachiness

Doug in his hammock watching Chris skim board. Which looks more fun? HUGE waves this day.

Never too old, yet, to ride the waves!

Life at the Beach

Hanging in the beach tent with the babies.

We had a great time at the beach!! The babies were a little young to truly get into it, but they did put their toes in the sand! We did a LOT of beach relaxing time, saw Harry Potter, went boogie boarding and wave watching!! Great fun to all be together!

POOL PARTY!

We had tons of famiy come over to swim with Shani and Heather and babies!! It was tons of fun to have everyone over with all of their babies1

Amy and Woody get engaged!!

Amy and Woody at Adam-ohndi-ahman minutes before Woody popped the question!!
Amy loves her ring!! How did Woody get it to Kansas so fast??? Flying monkeys??
First engagement pic taken by a kind passer-by!! Woody is in Kansas City selling pest control, and flew Amy out to see him for the Fourth of July. On Sunday they went to see church history sites, where he surprised Amy by proposing!!! They have been dating for app. 8 months. Woody is from Alpine Utah. We are very excited to welcome him into the family!! We just wish we could see him more often this summer, we have an engaged daughter, but no fiancee that we see, except on Amy's computer when he calls on Skype. They are planning to get married on Nov. 21 in the Las Vegas Temple. Come celebrate that evening with the happy couple!

Happy Fourth of July!

First Fourth for Baby Kakes

Baby Kakes in her fourth of July outfit, we didn't get to see her, but Heather sent this photo, and she is adorable! as well as patriotic.

Happy 20th to Amy Baby!

Our favorite cake, strawberries with jello and whipped cream, yum! I can't believe my Amy is no longer a teenager, but what I really can't believe is that she is not still 4 running around with wispy hair, cute chubby cheeks, and locking herself in the pantry because she is sooo "hoongry!"

Adam meets baby kakes!

Adam is now home for the summer, working and saving up for school. Look how natural and good looking he looks while holding Kherrington, single women, call me I have the perfect guy for you to date--Adam! He comes complete with a nephew and neice to play with!

Grandbabies again and again!

Grandbabies are the cutest, well ok, Heidi is really cute too! Little baby kherrington is so sweet.

Brighton is so strong, and is flipping over now!! Arent they both adorable?!

Heidi gets braces!

My kids always get braces when most everyone else is getting them off, due to the extreme lateness of their teeth coming in! Heidi is very excited to have hers, because it means one day they will come off and her teeth will be beautiful, Thanks to Jeff Simister who has helped 4 of my 5 children have beautiful perfect teeth!

More grandbabies

Brighton is not phased by the pool, and just kicks back and sleeps!
