Here is some pictures of the fun we had with the Call's while they were here for Hanna's birthday and our wards Trick or Trunk.













We had a great time hanging out together, and the kids had fun too (even if they do fight some of the time). On Sunday I found out that we did win one of the prizes at the Ward Trick or Trunk party...

We won for the best decorated Trunk, I don't know if it was because the two pumpkins we carved of Darth Vader and Yoda, the x-wing kite that was on top of the hood, Jared's light saber (that is a replica of the real light sabers, it is pretty sweet). Maybe it was also that I was a 6'5" princess Leia sanding by the car handing out candy...

Well what ever it was I was really excited because we won 2 free movie tickets, with movies here costing over $10 per ticket, that is a sweet deal, a date night with my hubby, YEAH!

The fun we have been having!

Our kids playing Train Station.


Nate was taking Miley around the house the other day playing train conductor. Our bedroom was the train station. They were having so much fun together and giggling the whole time...I did have to stop Nate once, he was going to take the train down the stairs with Miley in it. That would have been just great.

I love how these two love to play with each other. It makes me so happy to see them together. Miley looks up to her brother and loves him so much.

They did this for a good half an hour. Then they both climbed into the basket.

The M&M Store and fun with the Girls!


Julie, Grace, Miley, and I went to the M&M store down town while our older kids were at school Wednesday morning. We had a great time. Julie is such a fun person to be around and Grace is as sweet as can be.

We parked at the MGM Grand hotel and walk over to the M&M store.

Once at the Store we looked around a little bit and then went to the free movie...

Walking into the movie you get to go threw an area where they show you how they make M&M's and you even get to act like you are an M&M. Miley really liked the area with the giant picture frame with Las Vegas behind it.

We got to see what an M&M needs to learn before they can go out in the world..

They have been in many famous movies too...
We also enjoyed looking at the Giant M&M's.
Here Grace posses for a couple of pictures...she is so cute, and so good to Miley.
The movie was in 3D and was really cute. Miley didn't watch much of it but she still had a good time. After Grace was so sweet and shared her M&M's with Miley and I. Miley really liked them. We were going to make home made Mac and Cheese when we got back to our house...well we did make it but unfortunately Julie and Grace had to leave before it was done cooking. We'll have to do that another time. Thanks again for the fun and coming up with such a fun activity Julie. It is always a pleasure to hang out with you.

Time with Mom and Dad.

The kids had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa while we were on our outing. They got to play in the park, they went on a wagon ride, they got to go feed the ducks and peacocks, they ate at Mac Donald's, play a ton of games, and watched some movies. Mom said that she forgot how hard it was to take care of 2 small children, especially getting them ready to go anywhere. They took the kids to Target to exchange some shoes mom got for Miley and said it took them forever to get Miley's seat belt even on, on top of getting everything ready to go. Friday night after they got the kids to bed finally they were both ready for bed themselves....this is like at around 8 to 8:30 pm. Both Nate and Miley had such a good time with their Grandparents, I'm sure they were both spoiled.
When we got home on Saturday night, after making it on a pray, due to almost running out of gas....seriously I think the last at least 7 miles till we got to the Costco gas station, we were running on our prayer and the Lord's help; we brought home Cafe Rio for everyone. The Pork salads are so good, if you've never tried one you need to.

I gave Nate my happy meal toy (a Scooby-Doo book), and we had gotten some great deals on clothes for Miley at The Children's Store....deal like shirts and shorts for $1.99, so I gave her those. We hung out and played Mario Party. Jared won...

Miley loves to be silly...and I love watching her to see what she is going to do.

Miley had a great time playing with Grandpa this week end too. She played with a lot of puzzles with him. We also played Disney Scene it, Nate won! It's a great game for kids too, because it has both adult question cards and kid's ones.

Playing domino's Sunday before mom and dad leave.
Watching football....Together!
We were all sad to see them go. It was so much fun hanging out together with you. Thanks again for everything.
