Well last Saturday we decided to get into the Halloween spirit and go pick out pumpkins. We went to this big red barn in idaho falls. They had 2 big fields of pumpking growing. There was every color and size you could imagine. The kids had a good time picking out their pumpkins. Them we took them home and did the easy way of carving pumpkins this year. Our house is coming along. The shingles are on the roof, and all of the windows are in now. Hopefully next week the plumber and electrician gets to work. Ella had a bad week this week going to the baby sitter. She usually likes to go, but this week she cried and was not very happy with me when I went to gt her. Joe is in Salmon fishing this week with the guys from co-op. My dad has also been gone this week so it is just he girls, me, and my mom at home this week. Ella is finally starting to say a few more words. With much help from grandma tammy this week she now will say gradma and papa. We are looking forward to boo at the zoo and halloween next week.

cute ella

I was looking through pictures on my moms computer and I came across this picture of ella. She was between 2-3 months old. Ella is a challenge to me everyday. She makes my life very colorful. Where would our family be without our sweet and very lively ella. So here is a picture that makes me really want another baby and help's me remember how much I love my sweet ella!!

Family Fun

Okay how sad is this, but this is the only pic I have of my whole family. I usually never get in the pics because I am taking them. I think I decided that we are going to have family pics very soon, maybe after harvest. I need a nice family picture to hang in my new house.
What a cute new friend ella found at grandma's house. No it's no her mother after working her night shift!!

Logan, where are your pants?
This will be Peyton's first Halloween, so of course we had to try on his costume too. What a cute Lion!!
Rachel and Tyler have a new baby named Bella. They adopted her from the Human Society. She is a rather large dog, but she is very sweet.
Peyton is starting to look more like his mommy.
Ann and Brad are back from new york and I think will be home for awhile. We had a fun family weekend at mom and dad's. We got to watch the snow and enjoy the nice warm fire. Thanks mom and dad for being such gracious hosts. Even though the kids destroy the house, I think they are glad we are all here. Mom was not in the pictures because she seems to avoid the camera and dad and jesse were on their way back from council braving a blizzard to get home to their families. We are glad they made it home safe!
