Gym Fun

One of our favorite things to do is go to the gymnastics gym and play. And by play...I mean work SO hard on tricks that everyone is exhausted by the end. My sister Celeste works at a gym and was able to let us come and play for a couple of hours. It was great to be on fall break a week after the rest of the state of Utah. Thanks Celeste! 

Surprise!

Josh won another trip to Cancun so we arranged with his work to be able to take the kids with us this time. The older kids overheard us a few times talking about it, and once we took them to get passports they put it together. But we still wanted to make it a "surprise". We let them know that Christmas was coming a little early and gave them each a Christmas present. They all opened them up and it was fun to see their reactions. They each got a new sun shirt to wear in Mexico!!! We can't wait!

Brynlee's Town Day

Brynlee loved spending her town day with her grandma. They did a lot of shopping, ate Brynlee's favorite Chinese food for lunch, then headed to see the movie Maleficent. Such a fun tradition and all my kids love their town days!

Crazy Hair Day

We always love crazy hair day...and we have a lot of hair in our house of 4 girls. We've been researching ideas all week and this is what we came up with!

Brynlee's 9th Birthday

Like every kid, Brynlee has been counting down the days to her birthday for a while! She got a new church dress to start off the day. After church my mom was sick so she facetimed Brynlee so she could open her present for her. She gave her a beautiful carousel music box. For the evening we headed to the Ericson's to celebrate. She loved her presents and especially loved her new violin! She's excited to start lessons tomorrow!

Ward Trunk or Treat

I wasn't sure how I felt about having our ward trunk or treat so early in October, but it forced us to have all our costumes ready by now which I found to be a huge help! It was fun to bring our cousins along and they all loved the evening. This year Brooklyn wanted to be Cookie Monster, Brynlee is a peacock, Brielle wanted to be Belle, and we found Britney the cutest LOL doll costume. 

Movie Day!

We are watching Michael and Natalie's kids for the weekend so we made sure we had a lot of fun things planned! Brynlee's birthday is tomorrow so we headed to the movies to celebrate since we won't go out on Sunday. We saw the movie Abominable.  They all loved it and it was such a cute movie!
