A family that plays together...

...stays together.  Even if its just Mario. :-)

Oh ya, we had a Halloween Party

Yes, I am just getting around to posting about our annual Halloween party.  It was a blast.  Couples only with costumes required.  The scare was during the pictures.  On the 2nd picture my bro-in-law did a little burst of air with a yell and then my sis would snap the pic.  You can see his hand in some pictures.  It worked on some, not on others.  

This is my favorite time of year.  So fun to share it with such fun couples!

Gardner Village is super cute.  The boys loved finding all the witches.

During conference, Claire was getting fussy so I was about to feed her when President Monson came on to give his talk.  She immediately turned towards his voice and listened for the WHOLE 10 minutes.  It was quite amazing.  She just really loved his voice!

The boys came down during conference with their pjs stuffed.  It was pretty hilarious and it totally reminded me of my brother and I when we were little.  We would do this and then play sumo wrestlers on the tramp.  Ahhh, good times!

Cell Phones

So lets be honest, most pictures are taken with my phone now.  Its quick, its handy, and I always have it with me.  So here is a smattering of all the pictures I have taken in the past few months.  Most are of our newest little one Claire with a few here and there of her brothers.

Best bed head ever!

Happy!

I am so far behind in blogging but I just had to post these cute pictures from today.

And this is what happens after school everyday.  

Coop has to do his 20 minutes of reading for homework and the others love to listen.
