Favorite Things

Ok 2 simple favorites this week:

#1 MJ continually drooling, look close I am pretty sure you can see it hanging off his chin in almost every picture. (seriously shouldn't he be done with that by now, WOW)

#2 Sophie and her continual leg pop pose for all pictures. Such a girly girl, I couldn't ask for anything better.

OH how I love them!!!!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone! We had so much fun. We went to our friends the Wernli's were we ate and went trick or treating in their neighborhood with them. Sophie and their little girl Jada are best buds. They were both fairy princessess and loved it. They literally ran through the whole neighborhood arms out to their sides telling us they were flying. It was so precious and adorable they had the time of their lives. As a mother it made me so happy to see my children just love life. OK Now, Come on, Seriously could you get a better looking football player, HECK NO! This costume just fits MJ. People kept saying wow he really looks like a football player of course his father couldn't be more proud. MJ was so funny after every house he insisted on looking in his bag to see what the people had dropped in and then he would eat it as he is running to keep up with the fairy princessess. Needless to say when we emptied the kids bags, Sophie's had twice the amount of MJ's. I have to also thank Mike because while I took pictures and chatted he was a good sport and went up to every door with the kids. Thanks Dad, you are the GREATEST!!
It has been such a fun day and a fun week. I have to say I have never been able to go swimming outside on halloween or remember a halloween that I didn't have to wear my winter clothes under or over my outfit. This was a new way to celebrate!

Ward Halloween Party

Our ward had a fun halloween party. It was a great turnout and we all enjoyed chilli and corn bread. The kids loved running through the gym and playing with their friends.

Favorite this Week!

So Since it has been a couple of weeks since I updated my blog as you can imagine their have been plenty of favorite things but a couple that stuck out in my mind were:

Today was MJ's first day of Nursery and he seemed to enjoy it. When picking up the kids I asked sophie how it went with MJ in Nursery with her. She smiled and so cutely said in her little voice,"We are good friends"

The other day sophie walked into the bathroom laughing about something MJ had done and said,"Mom that is PRICELESS"

MJ yelling with his dad at the BYU game. Yelling GO GO and Yes at the ONE TOUCHDOWN we scored. Then Mike asking MJ, "MJ are you going to be better than Max Hall?" and MJ answering without hesitation "YEA!"

Orlando Temple

Our stake had a big Millenial Day Temple trip on October 23. The goal for the Stake was to have over 1000 endowments. That would be the most endowments done in one day ever in the Orlando temple. We achieved the goal and did over 1100. We were grateful to be part of that day.

Girls will be Girls and Boys will be Boys

Oh the days of dressing up and being characters. Here Sophie is dancing in her sleeping beauty dress with her dancing partner Sleeping Beauty. Listening to the song Ever Ever After. Of course the dress comes off and on about 20 different times, "make up your mind Sophie." But I have to remind myself that is what us little girls do. My mom can confirm that I loved to play the parent trap, I had to be each twin changing non stop. Or the memories of Playing Rozz (esther williams) from on an Island with you. And yes to my cousin Whitney I was always Rozz that is what you get when you are the older cousin, haha!!
