Master Yoda's Second Halloween

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! I hope you all had a fun and safe day, isn't Halloween so much fun! I think it is even funnier when you have a little one to dress up. This year we had a lot of fun with our little Master Yoda! He looked so cute and wear his costume all day! Most of our Halloween activities took place on Friday, it was a busy day but lots of fun. First off, it was my birthday and Kevin as always made it a special day! The night before Kevin took me out to eat and to a movie, it was nice to be able to go out just me and him! On my birthday I woke up to him and my little man singing Happy Birthday, it doesn't get any better. For my birthday Kevin got me a kitchen table & some Jillian Micheal's work-out DVDs. Since, I worked all day yesterday, I couldn't answer my phone. But, I want to say THANK YOU to all my family and friends who called, texted, or facebooked me birthday wishes! It means so much, I love you all!
Now on to Halloween with Porter....it was a busy, busy day for us! Porter had a fun class party with all of his daycare friends. They painted pumpkins and participated in a Halloween costume parade around the daycare!











His Yoda custume was a major hit, everyone friends and strangers got a big kick out of it! After, daycare Kevin & I took him to the trunk-or-treat put on by the Law-School. Porter loved picking up the candy out of the bowls, and holding it all in his hands. He didn't want us to put it in the bag, I guess he was afraid we would eat it!

Later that night my work, Porter's daycare, put on a Halloween Carnival. I had to work it, but got to take Porter and Kevin around when they came later on in the night! It is a really fun event, with so many activities for the kids! Porter had fun fishing for toys, going through the haunted house, and winning cookies in the cake walk! Let's just say by the end of the day, we were all ready to caught some zzzz's!!!








Porter loved his Master Yoda cumtome so much, that this moring when he got up he wanted the ears back on! He wore them all morning, and even took a bath with them on!






And, here are some pictures of my cute little nerd!

GIVE ME SOME SUGA.......

Today has been one of those days where I eat way to much SUGAR! One of those days when you say, " OK this is the last piece of candy," then five minutes later your shoving one more mini candy bar in your big mouth!! So I decided, why not add to the sugar rush and make some cookies. I tried to include Porter in the festivities but , he wanted to eat the dough instead!

Tis the season.......

I want to start out by saying I absolutely love Halloween! I dare say that it is my favorite of the holidays! Maybe, its because its a free pass to be really silly, or because it brings the freaks out in large numbers! Whatever, the reason I really, really like it. Tonight, we started to get in the Halloween spirit by carving pumpkins. It wasn't as easy with a 15 month old, traveling all over the place, trying to grab the knives, and stuffing all the seeds you just pulled out back in the pumpkin! It was a little crazy but it was still fun!!

















Also, a couple of weeks ago my little sister got hitched! Here are some of the pics I liked from her wedding.



The happy couple

Lots of Love.........

So I have seriously been such a slacker when it comes to blogging! We have had a few fun and exciting events happen in our family as of late!
1. Conference weekend was great! I love being able to be spiritually uplifted while chill in in my p.j.'s!!! To make it even better The Daniels came down to visit us, we had a great time with them! It had been a long time since we had been around family, so it was really nice to have them here! We just watched movies, visited, and of course ate some really good food!







Porter jamming out to Uncle Jeb's music!







A sneak preview of Porter's Halloween outfit! We found this Yoda custom, it cracked us up!



Also, this was my favorite(if you are suppose to have one) conference talk, this session. It was so powerful, if you didn't hear it play this video! Never have I heard a testimony of the Book of Mormon that was so strong!




2. On October 8Th, we flew home for my little sisters wedding! Fifteen minutes into the flight, Porter decided it would be fun to throw up all over mom! I don't just mean a little bit of throw-up I mean a ton. It was so gross and I am sure the people around me love us! The worse part about it is I couldn't get up to go clean it off, I just had to sit there. I guess I earned another strip on my mommy badge! Besides, that minor set back it was a really great weekend! Chelsee and James make a great couple and I was so glad I was there to witness the happy occasion. It was really neat for me, Chelsee and I have always been really close. I got to be right there by her side and help her get ready! It was also great to get to be around all of my brothers and sisters! We don't get all get together a whole lot, so it is special when we do!

Speaking of Weddings, come on Pam & Jim off the Office got married! It was a hillourious eposide! I laughed so hard I almost peed--this show makes me happy!
