Cute pics of the kids

Here are just some cute pictures of the kids. The one with their sunglasses on was when we were staying at the hotel between moving out of our condo and into the house and we were really bored, so the kids were being funny.
We went shopping and the weather was so great we had to get a shot by the fountain.
This is just Adriann being adorable. It's rare that she is so angelic, so I had to capture it!!
Adriann is getting so excited for Christmas. She wants me to take pictures all the time of her just holding presents.

The Boot!

Well here is the long awaited picture of my famous BOOT! For those of you that don't know, I ripped my fasha. I have no idea how to spell it except O-U-C-H!! I have planter faciatus and bone spurs in both my feet and have been trying to not have surgery. If I had surgery I would have to be off of each foot for 6 weeks! So you see why I have been putting off the surgery. Well with my luck, as I was carrying some heavy stuff last saturday, I felt something rip in my foot. I went to see my doctor 3 days later, hey we were moving and I didn't have time, and he told me what had happened. Basically I had the surgery without the surgery. So it was a good thing. But now I have to wear this boot for at least a month and put absolutely no pressure on my foot when the boot is off. Then I have to wear it on the other foot for a few weeks to hopefully relieve pressure from that foot because I am having to use it to walk the most. So that's what's going on with me right now. And as you can tell from my picture I am THRILLED to have the boot.

Christmas Lights?

We went to go and look at Christmas lights for Family Night tonight. Remember the tradition of Pecock Lane? For those of you from Oregon, you probably went there as a kid. Anyway, there is a street here called Candy Cane Lane and they all decorate their houses and so we wanted to go and see it with the kids. Akoni had never done it, last year Grandma Jodi and I took Adriann to see the lights. So anyway, this is what happened to the kids before we even left our driveway!!! Oh well, the lights weren't anything worth waking them up for!!

WE MOVED!!!!!

We finally found a house to rent!! We have been searching since the day we moved here, almost 2 years ago, for a house that we would be able to afford and we found the jackpot with this house!! I will post pictures of it when we finally have no boxes laying around. We are in the "where do we put everything on the walls?" phase. So bare with us and look for pictures to follow!!

I just wrote exactly what she said out of her own little mouth!! Kids say the funniest things!

HALLOWEEN COSTUMES!!

Here are the kids in their costumes! Adriann was a Barbie Princess, The Princess of the Rainbow. She was so excited to wear makeup! We put the spongy rollers in her hair so it was all curley for the trunk-or-treat party at church on Friday night, but then forgot to do it for Halloween night. Kenyon was a "Ghost Pirate". He had 2 outfits, one to play in around the house and then a warmer one to go trick-or-treating in. He carries his swords everywhere with him and even sleeps with them. It's so funny. They had so much fun and got too much Candy!! We are just letting them eat it all so that it will be gone and done with!!

Adriann's School class went to a pumpkin farm a few days before Halloween.

More Gilroy Garden Fun

Here are two more pictures from Gilroy Gardens. Kenyon got to ride the car ride all by himself, and had so much fun. Adriann and her friend Carson posed by another one of the pumpkins.

Halloween Fun

We went to a Park called Gilroy Gardens and they had a bunch of fun Pumpkins decorated. Adriann thought this one was especially scary!!

This is what happens when you are setting up your blog and ignoring your children!!!

Our Ward had our Annual Camp Out and Akoni was Cook again!! Check out those Tri-Tip Steaks!! We've been eating it for every meal, there was soo much left over!!

Adriann wanted a picture of herself so everyone could see her!!
