Happy Halloween
Lady bug girl!
***Sweet Aurora***
Greg's crazy orangatang that he begged and pleaded for.
Sydney as the cutest, snuggly pumpkin around
Super sassy purple fairy, Sam! Today I went to the post office to forward our mail to UT. Upon arriving there was a rather attentive mailman right at the door. He asked me if I wanted to use the automated system and I kindly told him I just needed to fill out a change of address form. He then told me all that I needed to do, even though the instructions were clearly printed on the form. He then was telling me that the mail would take 7 days to be forwarded to our Utah address. I found him pretty entertaining and thanked him for his help. When the form was filled out and we were ready to leave Samantha took my hand and said...
"It doesn't take that long to get to Utah, that man was silly, lets go to another Post Office." I laughed so hard! She was listening pretty close, funny, girl :)

 Which is why you're attracted to the romance of Rome Strolling down picture perfect streets, cappuccino in hand And gorgeous Italian people - could life get any better? |
We had a great time painting the pumpkins, but the girls were more fun :)
Sydney hated getting painted and was much happier "all clean!"
Sam was most excited about the pumpkins and found one just perfect for her!
Sydney was happy to sit and munch on her apple, she gnawed on that apple the whole time.
Wagon ride back to the mill, yeah for pumpkins and apples!
Sam is never out of character when she is in a crown and her purple dress. She made herself the most comfortable thrown around, way to rule in comfort :)
We are still undecided if my eyes are closed, oh well!
I think that they are the most gorgeous girls ever!

I was seven and playing with my best bud Logan/Boogie. Most likely barefoot and dirty. We loved to play in the leaves, like most kids. One night we made "presents" for everyone on our street which consisted of weeds, manure, and rocks, all stuffed nicely in their mailboxes. It sounds bad but the manure was dry... I doubt that made anyone feel better :) Silly kids.

In High School and being a silly girl. Loving my good friends and trying hard not to be fickle with boys. Headed to Homecoming with Trevor, a date to be remembered. Getting ready for one of the greatest holidays, Halloween! Missy and I wanted to start our own decorating business and go in to peoples homes and decorate for them, we had all the plans started!

I had been married for coming on two years and was living in a basement apartment in Huntsville, yeah for Marilyn Froerer. I was working hard in my new found love nutrition and exercise. I was losing all those unwanted married pounds that I had put on and was feeling great. Working hard as a PT aid, go Dad!

I now have my sweet daughter Samantha and man is she a gem! She was a duck for her first Halloween and was all smiles and the most lovable thing ever :) Greg and I were still hard at school, and living in my parents basement. Those are times that I will never forget, we have come pretty far in just a few years.

I now have two sweet curly headed girls, both gorgeous and full of energy. Sam was a beautiful Cinderella and Sydney was the duck now! Greg is working as an engineer and I graduated!! We are home owners a family of four and of course, broke! Aren't we all?
Yesterday...
I dressed up my family in the cutest outfits and we went to get our family pictures taken by a good friend. We went to a gorgeous park in MI (where we are living for approximately 22 more days) We had the best time and I have seen some of them already and they are adorable, thanks Kelli!
Today...
Watched GC on the computer and went to Home Depot with my family, we have missed having reasons to go to Home Depot! With no house and no yard there are few reasons to visit, but with home in sight we are all fired up to make some changes to our house, fun fun fun. We have loved being in Michigan and are going to miss it. There is a beauty here that is unlike anything in UT and friends that we cherish.
Tomorrow....
Watching more church on the computer, eating lots of good food and having our awesome neighbors over for dinner. A resolve to do better, and break out of my comfort zone more often. I have learned that being too comfortable is really a disservice to you and those around you. So I am going to play more and love life!
Next year....
Hopefully we will have our house decorated and finished the way we want it, another baby on the way and have taken a killer trip to Mexico! Ok so I was tagged and now I tag, Nancy, Kirstin and Melissa :)
Love Sydney
These two are dress up queens
CRAZY
This is what we are going to miss soooo much, we want to take them home with us.
