Cam and Syd

 

Cam loves to play the tough kid, but there is a lovable side to Cameron. He loves to tease Sydney like crazy, but she is his side kick. Steve and I always laugh about how they act like an old married couple. They love to drive each other crazy, but they wouldn't know what to do without each other.

Sydney and Alexa's Buddies

 

 

I couldn't resist putting these pictures on the blog. They are so cute! Sydney and her good friend Savannah play together a lot. They are so cute together. They play dress up all the time. Alexa is in the pictures with Brock(Savannah's brother). They are so fun to watch together. I'm so glad we have neighbors with kids the same ages.

Haloween Party

 

 

Steve and I went to an Adult Halloween Party at our friends house. This is what we dressed up like! I think we could have gone to S.T. George and walked through Walmart without anyone questioning what we were! The girl in the picture with us is one of our friends daughters. She is 11 years old, and we made her look pregnant.(I know! We are Bad)! She walked in with us, and stayed for a few minutes. She did a great job acting her role. The party was so much fun! We pretty much laughed the whole time we were there!

My cute girls!

 

 

I love these two girls! They are so much fun! Sydney is so good with Alexa. She always includes her in whatever play activity she is doing. They love to play house, put on makeup, and dress up! It is so fun to watch!

BYU and UNLV

 

Steve took the 3 oldest boys to the UNLV/BYU game in Las Vegas. They went with Jeremy and his boys, and Brad's boys. Steve, Cam, and Conner were cheering for UNLV, and Derek was going for BYU. Steve couldn't convince Derek to cheer for his College Days team. BYU ended up smoking the Rebels! Well, at least they had a fun time!

Cameron's Field Trip

 

 

 

Cameron's 1st Grade class took a walking field trip to the local Pumpkin Patch. Steve was a parent helper that day. He took Alexa and Sydney with him. Each kid was able to pick a pumpkin to take home. Alexa chose a tiny pumpkin that was just her size. She was very protective of her pumpkin and wouldn't let anyone help her carry it. During the Field Trip the kids ate lunch on the grass halfway between the school and the pumpkin patch. Cam was so happy his Dad was able to go with him.

Austin is 6 weeks old

 

 

 

 

Austin is getting so big! These are some of the pictures that we took of him. He is starting to stay awake for longer periods of time. He is also starting to smile more, and hold his neck up better. We love him so much!

Derek turned 9 years old!

 

 

 

 

Derek turned 9 on October 13th. We took Donuts into his school class on his actual birthday. The Friday following his birthday, he invited 16 kids over from 6-10 PM for a late night party. The kids pretty much played football in the backyard the whole time. Derek decided to break the teams up skins against the shirts. It was quite funny to see all these boys playing outside in the cold weather without shirts on. Instead of having a cake for his birthday, he chose homemade butterscotch and banana cream pies. It is so nice not to have to plan games for birthday parties. At this age they just entertain themselves. Derek is so much fun to be around. He is so mature for his age! He is always cracking us up with his humor. We love him so much, and are so happy he is in our family.
