Trick-or-Treat

Halloween was fun this year. We all met at Grandma and Grandpas for pizza and trick-or-treating. The kids dressed up so cute. Grant was Mickey Mouse and a cow later on, Aly dressed up as "Princess Eutopia Magic of the Rainbow Fairy", and Lil was a Lady-Bug. Lily went door to door with her cousins and Steve ate any treats that Lillian was handed. I think her favorite part of the night was playing with her cousins. Lillian had dressed up for the 3 nights in a row and we were relieved to finally retire the tights and costume. Steve and I also dressed up for Halloween with the help of raiding Mom and Dad's costume box. Wig's can transform any costume and I was tickled to find that Mom had plenty that she used to actually wear at one point or another. I was so amused to hear that wigs were fashionable at one point. Come to find out, the next day while talking to my friend, she confided to me that she has a real wig of her own that she wears to work on days that she doesn't want to fix her hair. HA! Needless to see it was a fun holiday... and enlightening too.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Happy Birthday to our November Birthdays!

Lilly on the 3rd (Sorry belated!)
Amy on the 7th (Today!!!)
And Marcus & Ella on the 9th (Terrific/Terrible Twos times Two)

And why did I decide to do this just for November birthdays and not for the other months? Well, because I just thought of it. Hopefully it will be a new trend. :)

Halloween Costumes

Why is it so hard to put together adult Halloween Costumes? It seems like my creative juices used to flow much better...I am seriously struggling to come up with something this year that Steve and I can just throw together. I have to dress up for a booth that I am doing at our wards Trunk or Treat and then our friends are throwing a Costume Party. Help!!! Does anybody have any ideas they have seen or done themselves??? I am up for anything that can be whipped up!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Hi Family! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! Lillian is going to be a lady bug this year. It's her first Halloween and though she doesn't know what's going on, it will be fun to dress her up. I have decided to post in order to coral everybody back into our blog! We have displayed a pathetic attempt of keeping in blogging contact with each other. I have decided to exert myself in order to motivate everybody. I seriously check the blog a few times a week and am so sad when there are no new postings. It was so fun to read Kari's today and it gave me the umph that I needed to make one myself. Nothing too great is going on here in Bountiful. Conference this last weekend was so fun and just what we needed to pick us up a bit. Steve is studying for another block of 6 tests this Monday. I told him about Dave and Caroline going to LV this weekend to see the game there and he said if it wasn't test week he would drop it all and go down too. I wish tests were more often on Friday and not Monday. Then he could have all weekend available to play with NO HOMEWORK. When he has tests on Monday he sometimes has classes the same afternoon as all his tests and gets no free time off. YUCK! Lillian is great. She is seriously amazing and has started to really imitate and pick up on things so quickly. She can kiss, blow kisses, patty-cake, sometimes she'll moo, roar like a Lion, and she makes the cutest noises. I think being her mom is the best thing. Especially when she takes long naps (like she's doing right now). Keep us in touch with what's going on with all of ya'll!!!
