Happy Halloween!!

Every Halloween I am debating wheather or not to dress up.

Every year on Halloween day I think "OF COURSE WE HAVE TO DRESS UP!"

Every year we scrounge up something last minute.

We had a blast this year wearing my mom and dad's old Halloween costumes.

Everyone else looked so cute.

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!!!

Carter and Jordan as Vampires

Me'Chel as a Witch

And again..........

Mom as a Fremont Cheerleader and Dad as a Fremont Football Player

Raysh as a Scott

Conlee as a Nerd

Liese as a Ladybug, Capri as a Bee, and Dan as a Girl...... yes that is indeed Daniel, not to be fooled for Danielle. :)

Guess Who..................

This is the text I got this morning....... What a perfect way to start off the Halloween Week!!! :)

Any guesses?

UPDATE: It is indeed my darling mother-in-law Me'Chel!

She was the witch at the Elementary Kind-ee-gaurten. :)

Her own grandson didn't even recognize her!

Isn't she the cutest!

I Love Tonight!!

Right now I feel like I am drugged because I spent 45 minutes in the bathtub tonight. :) I like feeling like I've been drugged..... Is that bad? It's an innocent kind of drugged, more like I'm so tired I can hardly keep my eyes open, and when I get out of the hot water, I can feel that my heart is beating slower...... like I've been drugged. It feels good cause I know as soon as I am done tapping on my keyboard I can crawl into my cold sheets and close my eyes for the night. I hope the wind blows hard again tonight. I think it feels cozy to be in bed with Carter when the wind is blowing.

Tonight I am sitting up in my bed typing on my laptop. As I lay here I can hear Tay-Tay teaching my cute husband how to do his math homework. Carter is so cute!! I love him! He gets so excited when he learns new things. I have really been amazed with his love for education since he has come home from Africa. :) I am still listening to them....... I like it!!

I have it good!

I hope everyone has had as nice as evening as I have! Sweet Dreams!

Rainy Sundays Make Us Want To Do This...........

.........So we did! :)

On a side note..........

Have you ever seen a cuter, sweeter, happier faced preschooler?

I honestly haven't!!!

OH I LOVE HER TINY FACE!!!

I can't tell if she is smiling so big because she loves school, or because her hair is curled. :)

Happy Birthday Brother!!!

Me, Raysh, and Roo With His Paintball Cake

Dear Raysh,

I cannot believe that you are 14! Where the heck does the time go? I remember when you were born and you had a little old man face. You have always been the little cuddly brother that I love! You have grown up so much in the past couple of months but you will always be my sweet little brother! I love you and hope you had a great birthday!

Love, Jord :)

Fall Boutique

My mom, Liese, and I have been working our guts out on some stinking cute furniture to put in this boutique! Can't wait to see what everyone else has been working on and I can't wait to shop till I drop! Come join in the fun! I promise you don't want to miss it! :)

......See ya there........

Weekend Get Away.......

This weekend Cart and I decided to get out of town for his one day "fall break". Yeah really, fall break for Weber State was a Friday....that's it. Well we packed our bags and headed to the little city of Wendover, which neither of us had been before. (I have been once to eat at the buffet.)

We had a BLAST in the 2 nights that we were there. We hit up the Seafood Buffet which I could seriously eat every day of my life!! YUM!! We played a little roulette, and watched people loose hundreds of dollars in minutes. (That part made us both sick though.)

It was a good get away! Cart has been working so hard in school! REALLY! I'm not just saying that. He had been so devoted and so dilligent! He gets little sleep and A's on all his tests even though his classes are pretty much death.

He needed a break and I needed him, so it worked out quite nicely. :)

Apparently this is how Cart thinks you dance in Wendover. :)

Us trying to take a picture with the casino sign in the back (didn't work so well).

One of many plates at the all you can eat seafood buffet.

You can even get 3 deserts......my dream come true.


A little roulette (or a little too much).

Happy Birthday Liese!

Dear Liese,

Thank you for always being such a sweet friend. I am so grateful you are apart of our family! You have become one of my best, closest friends! I hope you had a fabulous birthday! Thanks for letting us party with you!! Love you!

Love, Jord

Happy Birthday Conlee Taylor!!

Oct 2 was Conlee's birthday! This is a late post but I wanted to post that I love you Conlee and I'm so glad you were born 12 years ago! Holy cow! I can't believe you are seriously 12! I'm glad that you are my little sister! You are such a joy to our family! I love you! Happy birthday!!

Love, Jord :)
