Halloween 2009

It is rare to get everyone smiling at the same time for a picture, we lucked out here, but Daddy isn't in it, he is behind the camera.

Tanner was a Power Ranger and Ava was a fairy from the movie TinkerBell. The kids had a great time Trick or Treating and they really liked handing candy and toothbrushes out to the kids who came to our house.

Grandma Teresa Came

........And so did the SNOW!!!!

Our poor snowman fell over shortly after the above picture! Luckily it missed Tanner.


Pretty lame this is one of the only pics of my mom I took the whole time, I guess we were pretty busy...kids, shoveling snow, cookin, cleaning,shopping........the regular.
We love Grandma Teresa, she is amazing! Can't wait to see her again at Christmas!

Field Trip

Last week the kid's preschool had a pumpkin patch field trip....it was pumped. This is Ava's Class (Miss Angela).
This is Tanner's class......PreK (Miss Laura)
Is it too much to ask for some smiles??
It was a fun trip, the kids loved it.

Lake Mead

Last weekend we flew the fam to Las Vegas. We stayed in a rental home with some of Brandt's old roomates and their families from BYU days and ofcourse Goodman.....a dental school friend. We had fun on the boat each day. We wakeboarded and tubed. The kids just loved jumping into the water to cool off.

It was a fun trip, although I must say I am done with traveling for a while....until Christmas rolls around and then I will be all ready to fly again.

School Pictures

Here are some quick mug shots I got before we took them to school last week on picture day! I can't wait to see what the professionals got. Ava is just getting so big. When I tell her that she always says.....no, mom I am small.

Who says you have to wear a shirt to watch a movie late at night and eat popcorn??!!
I guess it's not a rule here.......yet!

Rockies Game

We got some tickets from an Oral Surgeon to go to the Rockies game. The weather was perfect and the seats were great. The kids even did surprisingly well. I know I look like a giant amidst my cute little family......I didn't hurt them.

This is Ava on the way to the game.

Here are the kids before school one day...........they are still lovin school.

Tanner and Ava at the top of "the rock" in Castle Rock. We climbed that last Saturday....... it was hot! Ava didn't break a sweat though, she got to ride on Daddy's shoulders.
They both got hurt soon after this picture was taken................ What is a hike without some crying involved, right?!!
