Pumpkin Carving

It doesn't seem like fall until the pumpkins come out.  For family night tonight we fulfilled all the pre-halloween traditions of pumpkin carving and pumpkin eating.  Pumpkin Roll and Pumpkin Ice Cream. Delicious!  Macy did an awesome job carving her bat (on the left) and Syd was an awesome scooper of the pumpkin guts.  Let the Halloween Excitement begin.

Murder Mystery

What a good way to celebrate the halloween season with a Roman inspired murder mystery dinner party.  Bogus Fortunatus and Mercedes Acceleratti joined the dinner party hosted by the Barnett's.  We've never been to a murder mystery party before and it was a blast.  Kate gave us a run for our money with her deception killing as Flotilla Submergia. Although everyone had an attempted assassination on their hands by the end of the night.  (Thank you mom for the last minute sewing on Tim's costume to pull it all together).

Phoenix Temple Open House

We love to see the Temple.  I'm loving the fact that we have two new temples around us and that we get to take the girls inside.  The new Phoenix Temple is beautiful inside and out and filled with nice touches of the desert aloe plant.  I'm so grateful to live close to three fantastic and beautiful places of peace and holiness.

Nerdy Girl


Sydney loves to pick up mine and Tim's glasses off of our nightstands and wear them.  This time around she made sure I was watching and taking a picture.  It's so cute that she says things: "Me want pictures. Me love you."  It's Me everything and it is adorable.

Daddy Daughter Date Night

Macy and Sydney had their first daddy daughter date night.  Chick-fil-a put on a cute dinner date for Dad's and their girls.  They surprised the girls with roses, face painting, and a free ride on the carousel.  So grateful for a good dad who loves his girlies.

Hawks Halloween Bash

It's been a while since Tim and I have been to an adult halloween party and the Hawks did not disappoint.  The costumes were fabulous and the food delicious. Most of all we're grateful to have so many good friends nearby to celebrate and party with.

Sunsets

One of the great things about living in Arizona is having sunsets like this all the time.  Love the beautiful desert.

ADA - San Antonio Texas

Tim's dental office, LifeSmiles, took off for the weekend to the ADA dental convention in San Antonio Texas.  They had a great time getting to know each other better as they all piled into a big house.  They spent their days in class and their nights playing.  .


 Tim spent my birthday at Six Flags with the girls (his fantastic team members).


Tim's favorite thing about San Antonio was the river walk downtown. 



He also had a chance to meet up with some old friends, Calie and Anthony.



He also claims to have visited the basement of the Alamo?!?!?! (reference to PeeWee Herman).

11 Months

Our little Kensie is growing up so quickly.  She is always our sweet heart and is slowly developing her voice and lungs.  She is a crazy crawler and walks along anything she can get her hands on and pushes almost anything to walk against- yet she still doesn't walk by herself and anytime we try to get her to stand, she lowers herself down to the ground.  Oh well!  She gets anywhere and everywhere she wants to go by crawling.  She has turned out to be a great sleeper... FINALLY!  It's only taken her 11 months to get there.  She currently sleeps about 7:30 to 7:00.  Wahoo!  That was an exciting day in our household.  Kensie loves to eat real food and especially cheese.  She is struggling to figure out the cup and prefers her bottle.  She always seems so happy and smiley.  She has four teeth still but the top canines are slowly making their appearance.  She is becoming adventurous and crawls throughout the house to find the things that she wants.  Her curly hair makes everyone stop and talk to her.  She still loves to snuggle up in your neck but watch out because her nails are extremely sharp and she loves to grab earrings, hair, and moles on your skin.  She loves her sisters but gets a little weary around Syd.  (She's still figuring out how to be soft).  We love our little Kensie girl and can't wait to celebrate her birthday next month.

Happy 29th Birthday!

With Tim in San Antonio for the weekend, the girls and I got to play.  We started off with Sydney's soccer game, had some delicious lunch at Joe's Farm Grill, delicious cupcakes and finished the night off with some great friends at Cheesecake Factory.  Happy 29th Birthday to me!

Kenso

With the many home projects we've been working on lately, Kensie has become friends with the air compressor (as long as it's not turned on).  She thinks the handle is the best place to stand and dance.  It's adorable.
