Foster

Just a couple pictures of Foster from this afternoon. He's getting so smiley.

Pumpkin Patch

We met Scott's sister, Amy here at this HUGE pumpkin patch. It was pretty funny when we showed up. There were probably only 20 pumpkins left in the "patch". Molly was so excited to be there and that was all that mattered.

Taking a big enough breath in to blow

Molly and her Daddy

She was pretty excited about getting to carry her own pumpkin.

Guess things are a bit picked over the day before Halloween.

So strong!

Molly and Aunt Amy. Thanks Amy for coming and participating in the holiday festivities.

Host and Hostess

My brother and his wife; Tim and Norma Jean

My sister-in-law is a famous cake maker. It's also very very tasty

Halloween

It was a bit of a drive, but we felt like we were finally close enough to go to my brother and sister-in-laws annual Halloween Party. We didn't have the costumes we really wanted, so we threw on a wig, colored our faces and said we were the Obama's in the 70's.

My sister, Rachel was bare foot and pregnant. Funny thing is.......she really is pregnant (only 17wks though)

The Johnson family; Mullet man, bare-foot and pregnant lady, and two kids in diapers.

Halloween in a Hotel

We tried to be as festive as possible in spite of our living conditions. We wanted to decorate, but didn't want to "clutter" the place. One pumpkin did the job.

Can you believe how much hair Molly is getting these days?



The knife looks a little dangerous. Thank you Hotel for supplying the great carving knife.

Molly was a little unsure about the slime inside the pumpkin. She made me do it.

The final product. Two darling pumpkins

Foster

I suppose some of you may want to see updated photos of Foster, so here ya go. We can't believe he's only 3 months. Seems like we've had him forever. He sure is smiling lots these days. He's such a happy boy and are still quite enamored by him. Thank goodness he is a good baby so I can get a few things done here and there.

Scott was getting ready to take him on a car ride so Molly and I could nap and he just started smiling. The boys needed some "boy time". Thank goodness because the girls needed some beauty sleep!

He sure is handsome, even if we have to say so ourselves.

Not quite as happy as he was in the car seat, but still adorable!

Temp Living Quarters

For 2 weeks, we checked into our "suite" at the extended stay hotel and resort. We weren't too far from the airport for a quick get-a-way if needs be. This was our temp housing before closing on our house.....(which is not put together yet so pictures are to come).

Spaghetti Dinner........we only cooked in once. The rest of the evenings were spent away so eating out was easiest. Molly and I always had breakfast and lunch there though.

We were sad to leave our conference/dining room table. This really wasn't too bad. Thank goodness we weren't there long and had other things to do.

Saying Goodbye

This is real. You're eyes aren't playing tricks on ya. We are updating our blog. Thanks everyone for being faithful in checking it and now finally seeing, we've gotten new posts. Needlessss to say, we've been a bit busy and unable to access the world wide web. Now we are back in full force. We'll try not to overwhelm everyone by posting everything in our lost time in one shot. We'll leave ya something to be excited for all week.

Let's see........so, we closed on our condo October 14, moved out the 12th and stayed with some awesome friends from then until October 23rd, when we made the drive to Utah with two cars and 2 kids. The night of the 18th, our truly missed friends threw a going away party for us. Thanks everyone for coming to support us, giving us cards, and just saying good-bye. We miss you all so much!

Me and great/best friend/ neighbor/ exercise partner, Cassidy. This is Hudson's mom for those of you who have not put the two of them together.

Debbie, Me, and Courtney. Both awesome/best friends.

Molly kissing Lindsay. We'll miss seeing Lindsay grow up.

Wonderful friends/ Sunday dinner hosts/ Hotel for the Walton's/ Hand and Foot players, James and Mindy Dean

Courtney's husband Russ and Scott

Hudson, Cassidy and Pete. That's Hudson "say cheese" face. Too cute.

Molly's best buddy, Hudson. They were like brother and sister........love/hate relationship. I so miss seeing them play/fight together and miss seeing him every morning. It was always fun to see what p.j's he picked out for himself when I would watch him in the mornings. WE MISS YOU HUDSON!!!!!!!!

Charley wasn't too happy about being in the picture. Charley, Molly and Payton. Good little pals. All born within 3 months of each other.
