It's been a while!



I've been shirking the blog lately and have had camera trouble so I don't have many new pictures to share. We had a blast on Halloween riding on a trailer filled with hay pulled by Papa and his truck. The kids would jump off and go with mom and dad to trick-or-treat at friend's doors. Logan learned a really fun Halloween song form the Little Einsteins and would sing that for several people. Both kids seemed to enjoy the evening tons. The following day was our ward's Fall Festival and the kids donned their costumes again and had a blast horse-back riding and jumping in a hay pit. Ashlynn found a friend with whom neither one could be separated from. At one point Dorothy came up to me to ask, "Where is my princess?" It was very funny. We had lots of fun. The children had their joint birthday celebration at McDonald's and had so much fun running around with everyone. Ashlynn's birthday was the following day and I made her a Dora cake that turned out pretty cute, sorry no pictures, this was about when our camera pooped out on us. I've so enjoyed the past couple of weeks where our lives were not so crazy busy. I am looking forward to Thanksgiving, especially to have Dustin home for a couple of days. He'll be home Thursday and Friday. I look forward to a little R&R and some good sales on Friday! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

The kids are adorable in their costumes...they totally look shell shocked. Funny. Had a great time at Twilight the other night. Thanks, I needed that. Hope you guys had a wonderful Thanksgiving and hopefully Dustin was able to help out and you got some needed rest. Can't wait for another one of our "little" chats.
