Fun random Pics!

Cameron, Owen and Luke watching a movie together. I think the only thing that kept Owen sitting there was the popcorn they were sharing! I feel so blessed to have such sweet and wonderful boys in my life. They are such a joy to have!!

Thanksgiving!

We had so much fun this Thanksgiving. We were invited to our friends the Warnicks house. The company was great, but I must say the food was fantastic. I just love Thanksgiving. We ate and ate, looked at ads, and visited with each other. It was such a fun day. Thanks Cara and Jeff for inviting us to come celebrate the holiday with you we had a blast!

Singing Program

Way back in November Cameron had a singing program at the school. It was so cute to hear all the songs they had learned in Music. I was a little disappointed only because they put Cameron on the second row, for most kids that is not a problem but since Cameron is shorter than most his age we could hardly see him. I took the best pictures I could but still had a hard time getting them. He looked so cute all dressed up and took some fun pictures with close friends. We had a great time although I hope next time I will be able to see him perform.

Best picture I got while the kids were still taking there places
I have no idea what he was doing in this picture but I find it super funny!

Update!!

Well it's about time I updated this thing. That is as far as I am going to be able to get today but I will finish catching up later on. Hope you all enjoy it!!

Cruise with mom and Heather

During the week of November 7- 14 I got to go on a cruise with my mom and sister. My mom was going for work and my dad couldn't go with her so we got to go with her. I was so awesome! We had such a great time and ate some really yummy food. I think I gained like 5 lbs on that trip, I ate and ate. We went to the Carribean, our stops were, Bahamas, St. Thomas, Puerto Rico and Grand Turk. Ben Dodge was so nice and generous to let Heather and I go. We did some really fun things on each of the islands.
In Bahamas we drove over to the Atlantis resort, walked around checking it out and since we were there early in the morning we toured the whole thing pools, beach, aqaurium, and everything. It was really cool. Then we went shopping, touring around and went to a little resturant. I got to try conch for the first time 3 ways, fried, in ceviche, and in fritters. The fritters were definitely the best. We also had fried lobster that was pretty tasty. We had to hurry back to the ship.
Our next stop was St. Thomas, we took a taxi to the other side of the island and got a ferry to St. Johns, in St. Johns Ben rented a car and we just drove around stopping at various beaches, it was incredible and so pretty with warm water. At one beach my mom, Heather and I about lost our suits, a huge wave hit us as we were trying to get out of the water, we had sand everywhere, it was so funny! Then we went back to St Thomas did some shopping and got back on the ship.
Our next stop was Puerto Rico, Ben was going to rent a car but there was no cars available so we paid a taxi driver to drive us all over. We stopped at some beaches, and then went to the rainforest. The rainforest was so beautiful, we even took a hike down to a waterfall. Ben was the only one that got in the water but it was still fun to hike down and see it. Mom did a great job and hiked with us, she was a trooper. After the hike it started raining, perfect timing to get back to the car. The driver gave us a really good tour and we got to see lots of things. We went to a bakery there in town and had these fried ham and cheese sandwich things covered with powdered sugar, they were really good. We did some shopping then headed back to the ship.
In Grand Turk we all went scuba diving, it was so awesome and beautiful. As we were getting to our dive spot we saw dolphins. Ben and I wanted to jump in with them but the guides wouldn't let us. We did a two tank dive and saw a really huge crab. After diving we grabbed a bite to eat and did some shopping and got back on the ship. All in all the trip was amazing. Thank you Ben for letting me come I had a wonderful time!! Unfortunately I don't have pictures to post but I will add them later on when I get them from my mom and sister. Reid stayed home and held down the fort. Thanks to amazing friends who took care of my kids, I didn't have to worry. Reid was such a great husband to let me go without him and took great care of the kids. Thanks hun!! I love you!! The boys were really excited to see me!! I throughly enjoyed being able to do whatever I wanted and not having to take care of kids, it was nice, relaxing and a much needed trip!!

Halloween!

This year for Halloween Cameron was a ninja, Luke was Anakin Skywalker, and Owen was Buzz Lightyear. We went to a trunk or treat at the stake center, they got so much candy. They had so mcuh fun going to the different cars. Owen loved the candy as well especially the suckers. He had one in his mouth all night. He just kept on getting more and more. The boys looked really good in their costumes and loved getting dressed up. Since Halloween was on Sunday, the boys helped us pass out candy to the trick or treaters that came to our house. They were sad to not be able to go but we set the rule and wanted to keep it.



Pumpkin Patch

On October 28th we went to a pumpkin patch with some friends. Yes I know we already carved the other pumpkin but we decided to go and have some fun with some friends. We got to feed some goats, bulls, and went on a hay ride. Cameron liked feeding the goats but was nervous. Luke wanted me to feed them. Owen loved the goats, he held his hands out to pet them and feed them. After the hay ride we got to pick out pumpkins. The kids had so much fun!!
