I LOVE THE FALL

We have sure been up to a lot around here... 

Most of the fall colors are gone now or have fallen but at the end of September the family enjoyed some time up at a place called Hobble Creek Canyon Park. It is so beautiful up there and it's a great place for pictures!!







Morgan with his boy!

Me and my little guy.

These ones of Noel turned out really well. She is so stinkin' cute!




A few days after our visit to Hobble Creek Canyon Park, I went back to take some pictures of my friend Danielle and her little girl Chloe. It was a lot of fun! My plan is to do this kind of thing where  I take pictures of friends and family just for fun and 
get enough experience and in 5 years or so possibly go professional.








 We had a ward Halloween Party. I just love our little giraffe and fairy.
 Noel, Sam and cousin Ty. He was the cutest frog that you ever did see.

 This cracks me up!
A little out of order but my brothers and I finished up with a volleyball league recently. Here a couple pictures of my brothers hitting and me standing there watching in amazement!

 Me and my brothers. I sure love them! 
 Just last week Morgan and my brother Mikey and were sitting figuring out computer stuff and Noel went and grabbed her leapfrog laptop and sat right between them. It was sooooo cute!
 Noel and I snuggling. I love snuggling with my kids! It doesn't happen too often!
 Noel crossing her eyes. That is one of her new things that she does.
 My parents visited and watched our kids and cousin Ty so we could go out on a double date with Chris and Kareena. We had a progressive dinner with bowling in between our appetizer at Chili's and our meal at Pizza Pie Cafe. We had a blast.

 We recently carved pumpkins. Last year Noel didn't want to get her hands dirty but this year she saw how much fun it was and decided to join in the fun.
 Here's Noel helping with Sam's pumpkin.
 The finished products and.... Morgan.

SEPTEMBER

We've had some fun the last few weeks. Last weekend we had Morgan's parents here from Friday afternoon the 14th until Sunday night the 16th. We hard a lot of fun. We visited a lot, went out to dinner to Outback Steakhouse (it was sooooo yummy), played Canasta, showed them the Watkins Family Cabin up in Provo Canyon, took some pictures of Grandma and Grandpa Young with their grandkids, went to the park, went to church, etc. We wish they could have stayed longer. It was such an enjoyable visit. Thank you Mary and Gary for making the trip out here. We love you and miss you guys!

This is a random picture of Sam from a couple of weeks ago. He is still doing very well with eating table foods. He eats a lot and still gets rinsed off in the bath after most meals.
 Noel and I love being silly together. I love my little girl!
 We celebrated my 28th birthday with my brother Mikey, and my other brother Chris, his wife Kareena and their baby Ty and of course my little family. We went to Tucanos Brazilian Grill and afterwards had cake. Morgan made me my favorite cake, Pear Cake! 
 Noel sometimes reminds me so much of me when I was little, with her cheesy grins. She is now eating her bread/toast from the middle out. It's hilarious!
 Here are pictures from the visit with Grandma and Grandpa Young.


 My wonderful parents-in-law. I love this picture!

 Noel and Grandma looking at the pretty leaves. The fall colors are beautiful right now!

 Hugs!
 Grandpa with his Grandson.




 These pictures are taken on a stump in front of the cabin. They're just precious!


 Morgan with his parents.
 We went to the park on Sunday evening. Noel sure enjoyed showing Grandma and Grandpa what she can do at the park.

 I tried to get Noel to go on the blue twirly slide but she didn't want to this time around. 
I sure had fun on it;)
 Samuel's first ride in the swing. He sure liked it!




 Love it!
 My cute mother-in-law wanted to swing so her sweet husband came on over and gave her a few pushes. It was really cute!
Yesterday we had my brother Mikey over for dinner and he had some fun with the camera. These are just a few of the great ones he took. These are so cute.



 Sam fell into this position 5 minutes before this picture. He just stayed there for a while. 
It was hilarious.
 Our little model.

 Too cute huh? Mikey has a great eye. Thanks for taking these cute and fun pictures Mikey.
