Look who got Board Certified!!!!! 

We love building at Lowe's and Home Depot on the weekend.

 Fall is one of my favorite times of year. I love the corn mazes, pumpkin farms, apple cider, raspberry pickin, and everything fall. It is so much fun and this year did not disappoint.

 Lexi and I had fun decorating our door this year.

Tyson's school at the corn maze. We love the local college's corn maze. I can't figure out how to get this picture to turn. It's turned the right way until I pull it into blogger.

Lexi's preschool at the pumpkin farm

Lexi got in to the powdered sugar one day during quiet time. It was everywhere and she was having fun licking it up!

We were all superheroes this year for Halloween. Except Lexi, she was Elsa. Tyson was Wolverine. Kenzie was Batgirl. I was Wonderwoman and Thayne was Superman. The kids loved trick or treating.

When we got home from trick-or-treating, the kids had so much fun giving THEIR candy out. I'm not sure they fully realized what was going on.

I could just squish this girl all day long. I loved the way her batman costume showed all her curves. 

September 2014

 Tyson played soccer again this fall. He played a lot better this year. He's still not very aggressive but he understood everything a lot better and had fun. His coach was intense and didn't play him much which was hard for us to see.

 I went to Time Out For Women this year with my mom, sister, and our friend Denise. We had a great time and it was nice to get away for a little bit. Loved riding in Rachel's convertible!

 Thayne and I went to one of the dance performances at BYU. It was lots of fun and one of the guys that served his mission in Buffalo was in it and it was fun to reconnect.

 The girls learned what happened when you dump a whole bottle of shampoo in the bathtub. They were so very pround of themselves.

 Lexi loves putting together outfits. This one is made of my scarves and my boots.

 Lexi had a fieldtrip at the firestation. Kenzie did not like getting into the firetruck. Lexi LOVES her school. She talks about it all day. It's pretty cute. Her class has 19 kids in it! This wasn't the original plan but one of the teachers out here moved away and Lexi's class absorbed the extra students. I was a little worried about it in the beginning but she loves it and seems to enjoy all the learning and crafts. I do miss Pre-K in NY.

The girl's music class went to a farm again this year. Have you ever met friendly turkeys? Well we have.

This little one loves putting on shoes, backpack, and giving out kisses like she is going to school. 

I was folding laundry one day and she just started putting on everything. She thought she was so cute! Which she is, of course.

Tyson's day in DC

Tyson and I went to DC for a day. It was so fun. He LOVED the Smithsonians and could have stayed there all day. He didn't want to stop for lunch or anything. I, on the other hand, have a short attention span for museums. It was fun to spend the day with just him.

I rented a paddle boat to give him a break from walking so we could see the Jefferson Monument. I didn't hear the rule about no docking on the other side and told Tyson to run up the stairs and take a picture. Shortly thereafter we were escorted back to the dock and told we broke a rule and had to leave. Oops. Tyson was a bit embarrassed. He said he heard the rule.

The butterfly room was awesome. This butterfly looked just like a leaf. How cool is that!

We also visited our friends from dental school, the Porters. Sadly, this is the only picture I got with them and it's only Graham and Lexi with no pants on.
