Colton & Anna

My good friend Danielle Arnold told me I don't post enough picture of my kids and that they are growing too fast.... so here is a update of my kids. As you can see Colton is trying to teach Anna all that he knows and Anna is actually learning. Colton taught Anna how to say "BABA" as in bottle. Anna is on the move, she love scooting around and smiling at her big brother. 

Its getting cooler in Arizona and we welcome it with open arms!

We had a nice weekend with Reid's side of the family at our home for Thanksgiving/Christmas, it really turned out nice and we didn't have a single accident with any of the children (THANK GOODNESS!).

Hope everyone is doing well and staying away from the flu that keeps making its way to our home. :)

Happy Thanksgiving week!

Happy Thanksgiving week!

We have been super busy from family birthday parties to writing church talks to planning to have family come for Thanksgiving. We are excited to have family come to stay with us Thursday-Friday. We will be doing a Thanksgiving dinner in the evening on Thursday and then have a big sleep over that same night with Reid's siblings that are in town. Then its BLACK FRIDAY. I keep asking Reid why they don't just make Black Friday a national holiday....cause I get more thrill and happyness from that then any other holiday and it would be concidered my favorite holiday if it was one. Oh well, I'm excited just the same... holiday or not.


Reid went to the temple topping party...where they put the top of the temple structure on. I got a pretty cool shirt that he brought home.



Picture of Reid and his co-workers on the Temple structure.
Any who, we are excited for Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up. Colton is still trying to get over the fact that there is no more Halloween candy in the house, haha. Anna has learned to take a bottle (yay!) so Reid and I may actually be able to go on a date here or there. We are pretty excited about that. Anna is on the move, she is scooting around like crazy.

We put the Christmas trees up about 3 weeks ago to get the daycare kids and my kids use to the idea of not touching the trees. So far so good neither tree has been touched at all the entire time they have been up. I'm lucky to have such good kids of my own and kids to watch that they mind my things and don't destroy things. :) 


Well, I better get back to cleaning the house and getting it ready for people to come visit. I'm running out of time! HAHA.


HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
