Happy Halloween!!

We had a few different activities for this year. On Wednesday we went to our ward trunk or treat. Tyler was a golfer, I was a rocker, and Nicholas was a shark. Cutest shark ever!

Tonight we went to the Santa Fe Teaching Zoo for the special trick or treating they had there. It was fun, and Nicholas was so excited about saying Trick Or Treat because he knew that meant they would put candy in his bucket!

After that, we went to the mall for the trick or treating that they had there. After a bit of that, Nicholas got free and was running circles with Daddy chasing after him. He thought it was so funny!

... even when he couldn't see...

Then Daddy caught him, and we went to get some dinner, but Nicholas wanted to run some more

He was glad to have some dinner, though and drank all of my lemonade.

It was a super fun Halloween, since Nicholas really got it this year and was excited to dress up as a shark. He was also so excited to carry his bucket around and go trick or treating. And he is especially excited to eat the candy he got!

The most handsome boys in the world!

Gwilliam Birthday Wishes!

Nicholas was so excited for the gifts he got today from Grandma Gwilliam, and from Grumpa. He wouldn't put his "choo choo train" down after he opened it, and loved the book, and the blocks! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Gwilliam! We love you!

Pumpkin Carving 2011

Um... Really?...

Pumpkin Patch

We went to a pumpkin patch, and Nicholas was more interested in playing on the playground, but we got some cute pictures and picked out a good carving pumpkin.

Shelly & Janice

I took some pictures of some of my favorite people in the whole wide world :) They are so wonderful!

Well, it's been a while... I kept thinking "Oh, I'll wait until this happens and document that" but then I got lazy and didn't. :)

Here is some random joy:

I have been making these little bags for a bunch of the kids in our ward.  

This is our new fish. His name is Shark, because that is one of Nicholas's favorite words. Every night when he's going to bed, Nicholas says "Night Night Shark!"

The play area at the mall was closed for whatever reason, so we let the kids climb around on these things for a few minutes. 

Nicholas had SO MUCH FUN getting to know family in South Florida for Yom Kippur. He has been asking for all of them randomly ever since. 

I just loved how much he enjoyed helping Aunt Sammi make brownies! <3

I am slowly trying to make Nicholas's room cute and comfy. These are actually shower curtains, but they were cheap and cute, and I didn't even have to alter them!
