Boys will be boys.

So I wanted a quiet time break and thought I was safe to sit at the computer for a minute or two to take a breath. The boys were sitting at the table just a few feet behind me coloring, a gift from Aunt Randy. Here is what Adon colored....

...and here is what Collin colored. Such different personalities. I blame all the face painting we have been doing.

Best Deal Ever


So with running and all I've been borrowing a treadmill. When the weather got warmer I ran outside and returned the treadmill. Well, the weather is cold again so what am I gonna do? One day, Aaron and I were browsing in a local sport's equipment shop. We love to look but everything is way out of our budget until we found this. A tread mill for 50$. Never been out of the box. Yippee! Here is a picture of the men in my life putting it together...okay I did help some.

We have a burn pile out back and here are the boys carrying half of the treadmill box to the pit. Such cuties.

Face Painting


Collin as a skeleton. "Scary" He is so into Halloween. He loves pumpkins!

Collin is a "witch" and Adon as Wolverine.

Relief Society party. A quick Spider man mask done by my neighbor.

Adon volunteered to be a part of the face painting demo at our party. He was so excited when he found out that his face would be orange.

Wolverine with sideburns. Gotta have those. The boys love getting their faces painted. Mommy is slowly getting better.

There is Nothing to Fear But Fear Itself...and Spiders


So in the spirit of Halloween, I thought I would share one of our smallish garden creatures. This Cat-face spider was found on our cement wall in our stairwell. I dedicate this blog post to all my sweet sisters who love.... I mean hate spiders. Happy Halloween. Don't have nightmares :P

Adon Turns 5!


After the corn maze, we all went to Nana's house for dinner, cake, and ice cream. Well, every one stuffed themselves with dinner so we had cake and ice cream on Sunday after Nana's birthday dinner. Yes, we eat and eat and eat. Here is Adon finally getting to blow out his birthday candles on his Star Wars cake. Happy Birthday buddy. Where did the time go?

Corn Maze Party


Pictures are out of order. Here is Nana, Uncle Ryan, and Collin relieved to come out of the corn maze....alive.

Posing...for a picture.

"I can't believe I slipped and fell in the MUD!" After 4 days of rain, the corn maze was very muddy. Luckily we were prepared with our rubber boots.

Heather and Adon were our leaders. They had the map and helped us not get too lost. Kadie Dawn was with us but unfortunately we didn't get a good picture.

Some were just too tired to go any further. Luckily, big, strong, Uncle Ryan was there to carry muddy, worn out little boys.

Juicing Tomatoes


Auntie Heather and Collin working hard to get the last of the tomatoes juiced.

What everyone else was doing. Thanks Uncle Ryan for helping entertain.

Collin was such a big helper with his Thomas apron from Grandma Wilson. Look at those pretty tomatoes from our garden.
