Breakfast with Santa

"Who is that?"

"What is he doing here?"
"He seems like a nice guy-funny looking-but nice."

"I'm going to sit on his lap?"

Where?

This last weekend I headed down to Monticello, UT for my cousin Jordan's wedding. Every time I told someone where I was going, the response was "where?". Yes-it is a little town just 45 minutes past Moab. This is my first experience with Monticello-not bad-but probably won't be going back to soon. I had a great time with my cute cousins. They are the funniest cousins ever! They always have the best stories that have me busting a gut!

Congrats Jordan and Carrie!

Introducing Cael Carlisle Squires!

My sister Nicole and her husband Shaun had their baby on Nov 6th. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 9 1/2 oz. and he was 20 1/2 inches long. He is a very sweet baby who loves to eat almost as much as his dad! So if you have tried to get a hold of Nicole and she didn't answer-she is probably feeding the child. Congrats you guys! He is adorable!

Trick Or Treat!

We had a great Halloween this year. We were actually able to stay home and answer the door when trick-or-treaters came.

Ayden was a skunk for Halloween. The back of his costume said, "Little Stinker"-very fitting! He loved his costume! The first time I put it on him he went running around the house flapping his little hands in excitement and proceeded to cry when I took his costume off.

His favorite part about trick-or-treating had nothing to do with going up to people's door to get candy; in fact he very rarely made it up to the door. He just loved walking up and down the street.

Frightmares

We went to Lagoon during Frightmares and Ayden seemed to have a pretty good time. His favorite ride would had to have been the tug boats.



It got pretty cold once the sun went down and we had to bundle up.

This was my first time being able to ride Wicked (last year I was fat and prego). It was a great roller coaster!

Crazy Mom

When leaving Albertson's after some grocery shopping, I noticed the cute pumpkins and thought that I should get some pictures of Ayden. So I set my groceries down on the curb and proceed to place Ayden on the pile of pumpkins. I am taking pictures and making noises to get Ayden to look at me and smile. I am sure people walking by thought I had lost it. The things we will do for a picture! Oh-and happy to report that Ayden enjoyed the pumpkins-there is apparently no scaring from last year's pumpkin experience.

Haunting Gardner Village

One night in October we went to Gardner Village for family night with some neighbors. We had a great time walking around with fall in the air, checking out the cute decor and shops.
