Our "Stinky Halloween"

It was fun this year having a little one. She didn't know what she was doing or anything about Halloween. She just new that she was cute in her little costume and she liked the attention she got. I have to admit I think she looked pretty darn cute. Mom and Dad both had fun showing her off. We had a fun time celebrating by going to our ward party. We enjoyed the hot dogs and hamburgers. After the party we didn't see the need to go trunk or treating or trick or treating so we went to the EAC volleyball game. I am so sad I didn't go to more games this year. It was so much fun to watch, it brought back a lot of memories. I miss volleyball. Good job EA though for winning the regional champions and good luck in Nationals!! Well here is our little Halloween Stinker!!!

I am a skunk!

Thanks Kade for letting me use your costume!

"cheese!"

See she's our lil' stinker!

Paiges little friend Lanie....cute girls huh?

We found another cute pumpkin friend when we went to the volleyball game. Paige loves her cousin Hailey and gets excited when she sees her.

Cute little outfit from Grandma that says," I love my mummy!"

Finally a new post!!

Ok everyone. We have been VERY bad at blogging lately so here is a quick update on whats been going on. We have been really busy and have just going, going, and going. I have posted 4 new posts of what we have been doing to give you an idea of why we have been busy.

Rocky Point

We went to Rocky Point with Garets family this past weekend. It was a lot of fun and the weather was beautiful. Here is a glimpse at what took place. I didn't do a good job at taking pictures so really this is only a portion of our fun! There was ALOT of card playing. I think the favorite this trip was California Speed.

Davis brought his skim boards for everyone to use. Garet had a fun time learning how to use it or had a fun time learning how to fall gracefully.

Paige had so much fun it was hard to get her to look up at the camera for a picture.

Here is her sweet smile we love. She wasn't smiling at me though. She was watching her cousins play.

She really thought they were funny.

Still Laughing

Paige and her cousin Kylee. She loved playing with all the cousins.

Dominoes Pizza in Mexico....I thought it was weird that Garet wanted to go to an American restaurant in Mexico. Garet went to Mexico on his mission and wanted to re-live the experience of one of his favorite restaurants. Dominoes in Mexico has a special sauce. I wasscared at first of the sauce but it was really good!!

Paige has SO much fun in the sand. I heard that often kids are scared of the texture of the sand but NOT Paige.
I just thought this was a cute picture! Paige liked high tide but I think she liked low tide the best b/c I let her do what she wanted.

Bisbee Stair Climb

Amanda ran at the Bisbee Stair Climb. It consisted of a 5k run and 1000 steps. She did a great job and finished under her goal time. She ran with her sister Marlee, Mom, Sis-in-law Renee. They all did a great job and are going to do it again next year. If anybody wants to join just let us know. For more pictures see Marlee's Blog

Paige is ONE

I can not believe our little girl is one. It is hard to believe that a year has gone by. We have enjoyed her happy little personality in our home. All of you that know her know how happy she is. She is spoiled enough to have 2 birthday parties. One in Thatcher and one in Sierra Vista. Here are some pics. Paige shares her birthday with her Aunt Megan. I hope you had a good b-day meg.

Jared's Farewell

Well Today is Jared's birthday so we have been thinking about him all day. We have been so busy but we still wanted to put some pictures of his farewell. We Love him and are so proud of him. He is doing such a good job in the MTC. I can't believe he has already been gone one month.

Hey I just wanted to share these cute pics of Paige. She figured out how to climb on the dishwasher. Now when ever its open she crawls as fast as she can to climb on. Its crazy how fast they figure things out! Its fun just to watch her. You can see the wheels turning in her mind and then...she finally does it!She also LOVES pacifiers except...she doesn't suck on them. (she only sucks on her thumb) Here is a silly picture where she could not just have one. She kept stealing her cousins pacifier, and the only way to keep her from stealing it is we had to give her all three of hers. One for each hand and one for the mouth.

Bounce U

Ok so this weekend we had a super fun day with Garets family. Garet and I have been really busy (especially Garet) with getting his office already to start. So a little trip to the Mesa valley was a nice get away. We wanted to make a weekend out of it but were only able to make it a quick trip. Saturday we drove down with Garets parents to Mesa. I left Paige with the older grandkids and the adults went to the temple. Garets nephew Mathew is going on a Mission in a couple weeks to Canada and got his endowments out. It was really nice to be in the temple with all the family. Everyone was able to make it. Garets parents were especially excited to have everyone there. We wanted to take pictures of everyone there but it didn't work out. After the temple we met at this place called Bounce U. Its this building with huge bounce toys for you to jump, run, climb and slide on. We all had a great time. Paige couldn't really participate to much but she had fun watching all the kids.
