The Kanooth Times

http://thekanoothadventures.blogspot.com/

Mrs. Savannah (aka Sana) is such a little character now.  She is talking, asking questions, singing, or repeating what I say ALL DAY LONG.  We have heard the funniest things come out of her little mouth.  ENJOY

#1 We watched a family night movie with Pirates in it the other night.  That night in bed we are saying prays and Savannah says, "Thank-you for Pirates."

#2 We were at the park and Leif had his sun-glasses on.  Savannah was looking at herself in his glasses and then confusingly said, "Daddy where your eyes?"

#3 Whenever Savannag leaves the room to go anywhere she waves at me and says, "Buy, see-you-later."

#4 Leif was making popcorn for a movie night.  Sana could smell the popcorn so she comes RUNNING in the kitchen.  She looked up at Daddy, clapped her hands and yells, "Daddy making Popcorn?"

#5 Leif kissed me good-bye before he went to work.  Savannah was on my lap adn said, "Kiss Me."

These are Lori's kids.  They were all out of Alice in Wonderland.  Lucy even had a tea-cup.

This is Amy with her newborn baby, Bonnie.  Bonnie is a little monster who keeps her parents up.

This is Kjersti.  I think you know what she is.  Good looken man.

This is Josett as a Disco Ball.  Her husband was an 80's man.

And this is my Husband!!!!  As?????

Now that I have two fun-energy-candy loving-crazy-outing-always moving children, Halloween has been so much more fun.  They are excited about everything.  Whenever they see an pumpkin they yell, "ORANGE PUMKIN."  They now know what a candy-corn is.  And they know that when their customs are on, they are getting candy!!!! 

The week of Halloween the twins and I had so much fun.  We decorated the house and made home-make ghost decorations.  We made sugar cookies and then passed them out to most of our neighbors.  We bought a pumpkin and carved it.  And we practiced saying "Trick-or-Treat".

see our fun hand-made decorations on the wall.

Micah is dropping a cookie in this picture.

Then on Halloween I put the kids in their costumes early in the day.  They are Peter-Pan and Tinker-Bell this year.  We talked about trick-or-treating and saying, "Thank-You."  Daddy came home around 6:00 so we had a quick dinner and then went to tick the neighbors.  Micah & Savannah were so so cute.  They wanted to knock on every door and then would just hold up their bags. 
Leif and I decided that we would just take them around one small block.  But it ended up taking us almost 2 hours!!!  The twins were having so much fun. One house passed out Hot Dogs, chips and drinks so we sat and ate again.  Another house had a haunted house.  In the end the twins got a TON of Candy (and mommy threw most of it away)!!!

I love to see the Temple

Micah & Savannah got these little finger puppets for Halloween and fell in love with them. 

Yesterday morning Micah came up to me and said, "Flower all gone".

I didn't understand what he meant.  And kept asking him to repeat himself.  And he would again say, "Flower all gone."

Finally after several minutes of frustration for both him and I Savannah came over.  She looked me in the eyes and said, "Froggy all gone."

I am so glade my daughter is bi-lingual.  She understands both English and Micah.

Both our children now say their own prayers.  It is so so cute.  They normally say, "thank you balls.... thank you toys... thank you milk.... thank you blanket... thank you cars... etc.

Well the other night Leif and I was standing outside their bedroom door and together they were saying prayers.  It was so precious.

After putting Savannah to bed last night she put her arms up and said, "One more kiss"

This is the best book I have read in a long time (and I read all the time).   I recommend it to anyone. It is about a girl named, Stephanie Nielson who was in a plane crash and burned 80% of her body.    She had a so-called perfect life, with perfect kids, and a perfect husband and then found herself in the burn unit for 6 months, then rehab and recovery for another 6 months.  It is an amazing story.

My little helpers came for a couple of hours.

Throughout the week we also got to participate in lots of fun adventures.  The boys went to Jay Leno and got to be part of the audience.  We watched fireworks, a light show, and Aladdin.  One night was a talent show, and another a testimony meeting .  Each night we had a wonderful dinner.  and most every night we stayed up late taking, playing games, or watching movies .
