Fall ACTIVITIES

We have enjoyed a wet Fall!! The kids have done some different activities this Fall. They have played soccer, done cheerleading, participated in church activities, helped decorate, carved pumpkins and played with their toys. We are so excited for the upcoming holidays.


The boys made guns out of their legos.


Madalyn was a cheerleader for her high school.




Paige, Bailey, Hayden and Carter all played soccer this fall. They had a lot of fun!




Gina came from Utah for 5 days. We made a fun dinner with the help of the kids. We grossed out some of the kids with our ghostly treats!

Madalyn's Homecoming

Madalyn went to Homecoming with a few of her friends this weekend. They had a great time. The theme was Rock n Roll. She wanted an animal print dress. She came up with this outfit and looked very pretty. Hard to believe she went to Homecoming. Where has the time gone?


Madalyn with her two friends.



I remembering going to Homecoming with my friends as a freshman and it was like yesterday.


One of her friends had a special dinner at her house before the dance. The parents graciously bought Olive Garden for all of the kids and decorated their garage. It was very nice.


Friends!

Duck GAME

Matt, Rich, Jeff and I went to a Duck game this last weekend. Matt and Rich love the Ducks and they have their annual game that they go to. The memo got out to all fans that we needed to wear yellow.  We are a bright group. Ashlee drove us over to Autzen and dropped us off. Fun times!




Matt was trying to pick me up right here and I didn't want him to.


So, we settled for a big hug.


Our friends met up with us at the game. 
You can tell that I really enjoy the game! 
No, I love sports Matt just happen to get me yawning!!!

Portland Temple Visitor Center

Matt and I wanted to take the kids to see the new Temple visitor center. We decided to go Sunday after church. Tricia and Darren wanted to go also. So, we drove over together and saw the beautiful Portland Temple and the visitor center. I love to see the Temple!



Paige had on Cheetah pants and so I am trying to remove them off of her before we go into the visitor center.


She is ready now!


The kids watched several video's on the Savior and his life.

Do you see Matt biting his lower lip?
 This is a sign that he is frustrated! 



We had a lovely Sunday afternoon with family.
