InstaNovember

Lego bath bombs in mini lego bags.  I hope the kids don't eat them.

I've wanted to grow and cook my own pumpkin for years.  This year I finally did it! I turned one of these beautiful Cinderella pumpkins into muffins.  I kinda feel like a fairy godmother.

How is this cute kid getting so big?! Happy birthday, Wes!

I loved his "I'm tring to smile for a pictue, but I really can't wait to open this giant Lego bag," face.

Those beautiful moments.

They may fight like sister, but these two friends love each other...that is until they start fighting again.

Spontaneous hug. <3 p="">

Science experiments in our jammies.  Love my little nerds!

Happy 1st snow! Let the magic begin!

I'm not actually grabbing Olaf's derrier.  I got thrown off balance as Wes was pulling and hiding behind me.  The kids had fun "winter trick-or-treating" at the store tonight. 

Pick your battles.

\These two bffs have the funniest conversations.
Mia sings a song in Portuguese.
Wes sings in "Katscha."
Mia accusingly, "You made that up!"
Wes brightly, "Yes!"

"If you get scared come to me.  I'll protect you."

Happy Thanksgiving! I am so thankful for my wonderful family, my Savior, my home, my neighbors, my friend, and that my first turkey turned out!

We had a million dollar view. #lightsattemplesquare

Life is so magical through their eyes. #lightsattemplesquare


November 2014

With birthdays 11 days apart they get to celebrate together a lot.  Naunnie brought both gifts when she came up to visit the beginning of November.

So sweet!

I need to learn to get better moon photos.  The moon was so beautiful.  I love the view from my front porch!




Butternut squash soup made from squash from my own garden.  I felt a little like a super hero.



Present time when Punka and Grandma Les cam up to visit.





Before and After shots when I dyed my hair red.  It didn't turn out...obviously.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Bret wasn't on call the weekend of Thanksgiving so we headed down to visit family on Friday.  My niece had her 1st birthday party at the Train Shoppe.

The kids LOVED that Santa was there.

My lovely friend and infamous owner of my kids favorite spot!

The birthday girl!

Playing at the park with Grandpa and Grandma N.

Saturday evening we went to see the lights at Temple Square with Bret's side.  The lights were beautiful and it was nice to spend time with family, but the traffic was terrible.  Next time I'll do a different weekend for sure.
He thinks he is soooo funny!

I love this place.  I love that I was sealed to the love of my life for eternity in this temple!
