Halloween Fun!

Today was full of Halloween fun for us! This morning we went to our local library for story time. It was dress up story time! Cameron wasn't the only spider man there. Here he is with his "twin". Cameron is on the right.
Here they are waiting for it to start. Jason the Ninja Turtle, Melanie the witch, Alyssa the horse and Cameron as spider man.Afterwards they colored their pumpkins on their treat bag and then went trick or treating around the library. They walked away with a sucker, pencil and a book marker.Tonight was our ward Halloween party. The young men and young women put it on with each class having a booth. David is in Deacons and so was in charge of a booth. They did goblin golf and fright flight. So I walked around with the kids and tried to get to every one. Some of the highlights for my kids were the "fishing" for candy, balloon making and pumpkin bowling.
Jason is showing off his balloon monkey. His costume changed that night. He decided he wanted to be Superman!Here is Alyssa. She was content to follow with her finger in her mouth. She was a beautiful princess, another costume change. I forgot I had this from when Melanie was a baby and it fit perfect!Melanie getting a butterfly on her face and walking the "cake walk"!
I guess I didn't get a picture of Cameron at the party. He was still spider man minus the mask since you couldn't wear them in the church. It was a lot of fun and the kids said on the way home, "WE LOVE HALLOWEEN!"

Our New Family Pictures

I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to change up, little specks to take off, small touch ups before th

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah,

TRIALS

We have been preparing for over 4 years for this trial. But nothing, no matter how much you knew it could and most likely would happen, can prepare you when your son's doctor tells you now is the time. "Your son needs open heart surgery." August 24th, 2005, Jason was born in Las Vegas, NV. He was perfect and healthy looking in every way. At his 2 week check up the doctor heard a heart murmur and recommended I take him to the cardiologist. I mentioned that I was flying out to WA in a few days and so I'd probably go when I got back, 3 weeks later. The cardiologist doctor called me the next day after visiting with the pediatrician, asking me to go in to have Jason checked out. It was late and he was willing to stay after hours for us to get there. After an ultra sound of his heart (echo) the cardiologist diagnosed Jason with a very small hole in his heart. Nothing that needed to be fixed right away, unless it started causing problems. So Jason started going every 3 month
