Snow!!!

The Snow came to our house last night (as the kids put it). It has been snowing on the mountains a few times already, but only half way down the mountain. We woke up to a yard full of snow, We were so excited (we as in me and the kids since we haven't seen snow if forever!) Alyssa and Corbin stayed outside for a long time moving the snow in different places and making a castle. Ava didn't want to touch it. I had to take a picture of our pumpkins with snow on them. never seen that before. Let me tell you I am having a lot of first here in Utah. Oh and because the houses were covered with snow and the yards, the kids called it a christmas town and they really thought it was christmas today becuase of the snow. It was a fun filled day today with snow ball fights and snow castles and yes eating the snow too.

Happy Halloween

I am glad everyone had an enjoyable Halloween. This past week the kids have played with the costumes over and over deciding what they were going to be. Luckily Susan had a youth activity at the house for Halloween so the kids got to dress up for that and then they got to be something different for school and then, yes it keeps coming they picked something different for trick or treating. So Addison and Alyssa were Fairies (we had such perfect weather their costumes worked out) Tanner was Spider Man, Corbin was a Train Conductor, andAva was a purple pegasus (horse with wings). They ran from house to house showing us what they got each time.

Carving Pumpkins

Alyssa got a coupon at school for a FREE pumpkin at the local grocery store. So we go and ask the cashier if there is any rules or regulations on the size of pumpkin we can pick. She says no, so of course my daughter goes out to the patch of pumpkins and picks out the biggest one. I could barely lift it into the cart! We carved it that night and had a lot of fun. I love carving pumpkins.

My mom came up for a visit for a few days and for family night we made Caramel Apples. I haven't had one in a very long time, We each got one and it was so good. I added peanuts to mine (yes I had to be different). The kids loved the idea that they got their very own too.
