Family pictures

We did a family picture! It takes a ton of planning to get my kids and Drew on a schedule that will fit in a 30 min. photo shoot! By the time we all got there I was feeling like getting rid of a few kids, Karter Tre' was crying and the older boys were fighting. I could feel my hair going flat and my makeup fading. Thank goodness for Kellene! she is my friend and a professional photographer. She had fun comments that got the boys smiling and snacks to keep Karter happy. The boys were like models in their individual shots and Karter was a total ham. Twenty minutes past the time of our appointment, Drew decided to grace us with his presence. The kids were fading, I was faded and the family photo shoot began! Kellene just clicked the camera as fast as she could and I prayed for at least one good picture. For all the craziness of the day I thought we came out okay! So enjoy the first family picture that includes Karter Tre'.....who is almost three. There won't be another until they go on missions!! HEE HEE!

Missing Pieces

Here are some pictures that I just found. They are from our trip to Flaming Gorge in September. The cabin we were at had a ton of nails coming out of the deck so the kids had fun hammering them back in! Who needs T.V. with fun like that. There are also Pictures from the pumpkin patch and trick or treating. Drew loaded up all the kids in the neighborhood in the back of his truck and he and some other dads took the kids around. The kids and some friends made some haunted castles out of rice crispy treats as well. I wasn't kidding when I said we were busy this month!

October

I am back! What a fun and crazy month we have had! The boys have been playing hard and having fun! We went to see The Harlem Globe Trotters. It was fun and Karter was given a Shoe from one of the players. It was almost as big as he is. We went to parties for Halloween and Andrew and Conner went hunting/fishing with Uncle Jon and had a blast even though they only caught one fish! The weather was warm for trick or treating and everyone got a ton of candy! The boys dug a community in the dirt with their friends and played their new favorite video game guitar hero. All is well!
