Happy Halloween, or Fall

Kayden had a preschool halloween party. They had so much fun. decorating cookies and playing different halloween games
Kade won these teeth at his party
here he is telling me what he will be for halloween that facial expression with him say " Aarr "
and then clearifing (as if that wasn't enough) "a Pirate"!
we were given these read cowgirl boots and they were so cute on her we had use them. that is how we decided she she was going to be. Mike had these old bandannas from a work thing so I just made her outfit out of them. it was nice not really buying anything.

I just cant get over how cute she is. she can say candy now surprise "nanny" and does she ever have a sweet tooth.

We had a fun Halloween night. I wish there was some way that we could go out as a family. Kade really wanted mike there. We finally left candy on our door step and walked around together.

Hailey got the concept but figured out early on that it was faster to just let me carry her. We had a fun evening. and the kids were still in bed by 8:30!! I was not going to give that quiet time with mike up.

Boy? Girl?

just to clearify, We did not find out the sex of our baby, we couldn't decide what would be a better addition so we decided it would be fun to keep it a surprise. Since we have one of each and have thouroghly enjoyed them both we thought it would be fun to see what we would be blessed with next.

September went by way to FAST

Would you believe me if I said we lost our Camera for the whole month of September? Well We didn't, but I Don't know where September went.

Hailey is getting to that age where she is now alot more Interesesting in things such as flour. she had so much fun. I couldn't stop her right away.

I Had a birthday and it was a very fun day. I loved having family around, especially my mom. it was a very special day. thank you.

We had some Friends generously share some circus tickets with us. So we had a really fun time going to the circus Friday night. FUN for the whole Family- MIKE even had fun- he was a little sceptcal. thank you Friends!! This may look like a huge Trophy.. It is. Mike's softball team won thier game and became Sandy City Champs. I keep telling him that he needs to pass it around to the other players... HE says he earned it. HE did put lots of time into that team. He had a lot of fun and we had a fun outing every week watching Dad play.

The RODEO

WE had a very fun weekend! mike and I were able to celebrate our Anniversary Friday and Saturday in Logan while Kathy and Alex watched the kids.

But I did want to share the fun time we had with our friends the Cranes at the bluffdale Rodeo. Kade is officially A COWBOY!!

My baby road his first Sheep Saturday night and he did awesome. I have to warn you that it was mikes job to check the camera's before we left and he didn't check the video camera... so the shot is grainy but this is really Kayden and he did AWESOME!! all the kids recieved trophys and he has cherished his.

Kade and buddy Payton and they did so great they were both so brave, I am so proud of them both.

Me and the kids also were able to drive to washington and visit my family. My sister Kjarsta's reception was there and it was beautiful. We spent every chance we could at the beach, because while we were there washington hit its all time HIGH at 106 degrees... which they are not equiped to handle- no one has air conditioning.

My grandpa newton with Hailey Camille and Ethan - we feel blessed that grandpa is in such great shape to swim with his great grandchildren.

I BLAME Kjarsta for this picture, it was so cute. lined up was Jonny, grandpa and kristian all doing pushups (grandpa won) Kade went to go join.

kade had so much fun at the "beach" he is always asking if we can go now. he loved the boat and wasn't affraid to go tubing. I was impressed.

Theres kade up in front.

. WE did this really fun adventure one day. we went to Jetty Island, we rode a farrie over and then it was this great beach for about two miles. sandy and the best part it didn't get deep for miles. waiting for the ferrie
while we were there the tide went out, thats when Hailey really found her Nitch.




In this picture the water is just above my knees... and that is why I chose not to put the other one up.

Cousin Camille was way more daring that hailey was.



With grandma.

The end of our trip, saying good bye, we were fortunate to have both set of grandparents there. here is Grandma and Grandpa Salmon with the great grands that were there, we missed pepper and ty and the twins.
