Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving. We went to Calebs Dads house for the main course and had a blast. Jody and my sister in laws are great cooks so everything was so good thank you. And all of the kids love to be together and us parents love that they just go off and play. Then we went to Calebs Moms house for later dinner, and then Trey had a sleep over and my parents house with all of those cousins. My Mom bought all of the kids matching PJs (well the boys matched and the girls matched). Trey thought it was so cool that him and Conrad had the same clothes on. I didn't get any pictures of all the kids in their PJs, you can just imagen 8 kids taking a picture.

Kids Village program

Trey had his Halloween program at pre school. I love these programs because all the kids are dressed up and standing "not all singing" for you. Trey did better this year then he did last year but I wouldn't say that he will be on broadway any time soon. This is his friend Max Layne, He has had so much fun being in the same class as him. I can tell they will be good buddies. The best though was when Trey asked me what Max's last name was I told him and he said back Max "Lame". So I'm so sorry if he ever calls him that Holly.

Pumpkin Carving Party

We had a Halloween pumpkin carving party at Grandma and Grandpa Houghtons house last night. All of the cousins wore their costumes and we ate yummy homemade chili, carved pumkins, and then the kids frosted there own surgar cookies. I forgot my camera so I didn't get us "carving pumkins". And Caleb couldn't come so when you have Brennan crying and Trey wanting me to carve two pumkins I didn't bother anyone to take our picture. It is so fun to get together with everyone because all of the cousins have so much fun. We have a great family. We wish you could be here Peggy and Ted.

Neighborhood Halloween Party

It was our annual neighborhood Halloween party. We have lived in this neighborhood for over two years now and we have so much fun with all of the parties. This party everyone usually will get decked out. So I had to steal Katie's dress from bunco because I thought it was so beautiful! I had to look my best, and we were so happy to find our other sister wife at the party. I didn't get pictures of everyone so enjoy the ones I have. Don't worry that we look like we are 15 years old.

The Spice Girls! We had front row tickets. We are so lucky!

Bunco

This month for Bunco we dressed up for Halloween. We had so much fun! We decided to dress up a few days before so I didn't know if everyone would dress up, but come to my surprise they all looked so good! I have a good group of friends and I hope that you all had as much fun as I did. Amy is Isabella pregnant with Edwards baby. Krysta is Mrs Incredible

Amiee was Giselle from Enchanted

Becca and Katie as polygamy wife sisters.

This is my 9th grade cheer outfit that half of these girls were on the squad with me.

Josi was a pirate and Jamie was a cave woman

Alisha and Nicole were cute witches.

Deborah and Brea were Botox fairies or butterflies.

My handsome Houghton boys

We had a lot of fun at Sundance walking around and enjoying the beautiful fall colors. I am a lucky gal to have these handsome boys. I love you Caleb, Trey and Brennan.

What a beautiful day.

Today was one of those days that you look at everything a little different. If you know or didn't know we have had a few stresses in our lives. It has been hard but we really have learned a lot. Threw all of it we keep telling our selves that the only reason we have trials is that we will learn something. I have grown to have such an appreciation for so many things. For one is my family Caleb and my boys, and also all of my parents and siblings.

But for the reason that I am writing this was that today was a great day. First we woke up and Trey noticed that it was snowing and he was so happy! We got to church and got out of the car and Trey said "it is a Beautiful Day", we started to laugh and he said "but it just is because it snowed". I love little kids, they remind you to look at the small things in life to make you happy.

Then all day both of our kids just made me laugh. Brennan is just so cute and who could not love that dimple and smile. He just loves following Trey around and doing what ever he is doing. He will laugh at what ever Trey does. Brotherly love, it is so cute.

And then Trey found his instructions to build his logo Star Wars ship. And he told us "These are the destruction's to build my ship." We laughed so hard. I love my boys, they all bring a huge smile to my face, and that includes you too Caleb. And I am so grateful for all of my family and friends. You are all amazing to me and thank you all for being wonderful examples to me. Thank You!
