What a busy fun day! It started by Sawyer showing off his new trick! He stands up in the crib! He just won't slow down. If he isn't crawling, climbing the stairs, walking with his walker toys, or now pulling himself up on to everything! We then got ready and went to our playgroup Halloween Party! It was so great to see everyone and let the kids play! Thanks so much to our good friends the Butcher's & Grevious' for allowing us to come have pizza, candy & FUN! Afterwards the kids got to go see Grandma Patsy at her work and do more trick or treating! For dinner we had pizza & birthday cake! My family celebrated my brother's, Dad's, I my birthday! It was so nice to all be together! We then got to carve the pumpkins that my Dad grew in his garden! Grandpa Steve helped Olivia clean hers out & then Uncle Chad carved her an Elmo. Chad cleaned out one and & then Brittney carved the characters from the movie Twlight! It was amazing! David & I cleaned out Sawyer's pumpkin & then carved the Itsy Bitsy Spider! We had a lot of fun! Didn't realize there was music & it is not pretty sounding! SO you might want to mute during the slide show! SORRY!

Harvest Party

On Sunday we attended our first Harvest Party as a family!  Our church hosted it and we were able to attend along with our Brady Family Friends!  We had so much fun simply being together!  We rode a hoarse, played games, went on a hayride, ate chili & lots of CANDY!  God is GREAT!

Sawyer’s Dedication

Today we had Sawyer Dedicated at Alpine Church in Riverdale, UT.  Our close friends, Brian and Tory Brady were there to witness the special day, and our other good friends Steve and Heather Sanders offered their support as well!  A “Dedication” is where we as a family stand before the members of our church and promise to raise Sawyer as a good Christian!  We also pray for him…for his health, his strength, and for his future.  We have been so lucky to find such an amazing church.  Alpine Church was started 8 years ago by Bryan and Tracy Dwyer in their backyard!  Now it has expanded to 2 different locations and 1 more on the way. Bryan and the other head pastor, Steve Bennetsen, are amazing leaders and teachers.  All of their sermons are available as podcasts.  Just search for Alpine Church, UT.  You won’t be disappointed!!!  Also, here’s a link to their website if you want more info:  www.alpinechurch.org

Neighborhood Halloween Party!

We had a wonderful 3rd Annual Halloween Party!  Every year that we have been here in UT we have had a Neighborhood Pumpkin Carving Party!  It started out with David & I helping the neighborhood kids carve their pumpkins while our awesome Air Force Friends babysat Olivia!  Last year we were blessed with having my parents here to watch Olivia while we continued to help the neighborhood kids carve their pumpkins.  This year we had to count on the Brady Family to help with both kids, carve pumpkins and take notes!  They will be the ones to continue the tradition of the Pumpkin Carving Party!  We had a lot of fun last night and we got a lot of pumpkins carved!  We enjoyed chili, Taliban Hot Dogs, caramel corn, chips, queso, cupcakes, & cookies! We are going
