First of all, Timmy started preschool this fall at Miss Launa's Little Learners, which is a fabulous musically oriented preschool. This is going to the first day.
Literally days before preschool started Timmy figured out how to read and is doing it well enough that it scares his teachers. Now if we can just get him to write and color... He earned his alphabet king crown for knowing the whole alphabet and all of the sounds the letters make.
We made it to the Utah State Fair with the kids and Tim got to ride a pony and go down the monster slide. Mikayla really liked the hands on farm for little kids.
Mikayla started nursery in October and is the tiniest one in there. She's in the red jumper dress in the far corner. Most of the time she likes it but lately she's been wanting Mommy or Daddy to stay with her. We hope that with the new schedule she won't be as tired and will be happier.
We went up the canyon for some fall fun in the leaves with the kids. They had a wonderful time but really, really, really, wanted to play in the freezing water. 
Which brings us to Halloween. Mikayla thought that the pumpkin patch was a blast.
The cutest little fur balls ever! Neither of them liked the hoods so this is a rare shot. They LOVED trick or treating and thankfully got tired after only an hour.
Trick or Treating in action. Mikayla's outfit was much more insulated than Tim's so he looks like a cat burgler instead of Rintoo the Tiger. Mikayla was so gracious to go along for the ride even when Tim drove like a maniac. As long as she could have some candy she was willing to do anything.
And now the hodgepodge of really random shots in no particular order. I was so thrilled to see them "playing" together that I had to get a picture. 
We spent lots of time at the park, here's Tim showing off his skills.
And our new favorite game "nigh nigh" where they snuggle in the bed together for a few minutes until one starts screaming.
The cousins all together, Alexis jumped out of the frame at the last minute or it would be all of them on my side. Kay just wants to be one of the big kids, or a kitty, depending on the day.
Planetarium fun - now you have proof that they are from Mars.
Typical game playing posture, this kid is going to have great abs!
Did I mention that we lived on the edge of a field? They don't mention this when you buy out here. "Oh by the way, in the fall you'll have drifts of tumbleweed up to 8ft high." This is only one of the several weed storms we got to deal with. Thank heavens they pack small into the green waste can!
