Disneyland

We had such a great time at Disneyland. The my whole family went with the exception of John and Scott who both had to stay home and work, so Denise and I could pay for our trip! we loved going and being there with everyone. Andy was my little or not so little companion. Andy helped me drive to and from, and around California once we got to Utah I couldn't have done it with out him or the help of others. This is my favorite picture of Denise, Andy and I.
Alex is just loving having Grandpa peaking around him. If you look close he is laughing. Finally a picture with all the grand kids together, now the challenge of getting the entire family in one spot at the same time for a family picture!

We went to Princess land while at Disneyland. The girls loved it. Funny story, when we finally got up to the front of the line to see the princesses,the lady who controls the groups said to the girls, " what beautiful Princesses we have. A little tiny one( Brookelyn),a bigger one(Elise), a real big one(Courtney), and what a Cute sir night(Makenna). Makenna just before we left decided to cut her own hair and now has a short hair cut. I made her where her pink ears the rest of the day!


The kids with Minnie and Mickey Mouse at California Adventures. Makenna loves them on Mickey Mouse Club House. She just couldn't stop staring at them.



Courtney is always being goofy so this fits perfectly.

Halloween


My friend Diane, Jordan and Little Alex.
Courtney and Ashlyn.
Halloween was a great time at our house. We started things off with a church party. We had a chili cook off and a brownie bake off. I got 2nd place it the brownie bake off with a turtle brownie. We had a carnival and of course went Trunk-or-Treating.

We had an American Doll "Felicity"( Courtney), the super heroes Batman and Robin (Alex and Zach), a princess (Makenna), and a dragon (Jordan). I was a surgeon, a clean room worker, an astronaut, or what ever you want me to be. I just dressed up because my kids wanted me to. Alex was never around when we were taking pictures.

We went Trick-or-Treating on Halloween. My kids are one of the only kids in our neighborhood so they were given handfuls of candy at a time. When the kids put all their candy together they had a half a kitchen garbage bag full, to much if you ask me. We even use the Trunk-or-Treat candy to pass out at home. Good times though!

Trona

On our way to Disneyland we stopped at my Grandparents house in Trona. It was the kids, my parents, and Andy. These are pictures of Alex and Zach playing ball in their back yard. All of the kids were covered in sand. You would never have guessed that they had a bath the night before. It was really nice to see my grandparents and Aunt Davetta.
