Pumpkin Patch and Halloween

Okay I don't really feel like trying to cut and paste all of these in the correct orders sooo.....
Above is Molly ( as a flapper) with Nana at our ward's trunk or treat! She has so much fun and came home with a truck load of candy!


I always have such great plans for Family Halloween costumes and as we get closer to Halloween it always falls through! Maybe when I'm not working full-time that will pan out for us! Ha ha Anyways, Jamon was Bob the Builder and David was an Itsy Bitsy Spider!

Molly and Ava didn't want to participate in the Chili dinner - just play in the grass! Ava is a princess by the way!
David on the other hand, is all about food!


So this happened around October 15 - we visited Jamon's family in Texas. There is a family in their stake that owns a pumpkin patch and Jamon's mom and brother were helping out so we went and had a great time!

There were so many pumpkins Molly couldn't decided which one she wanted to take home! (I helped her pick out a $3 one instead of a $25 one! lol :)

Molly has decided she doesn't really like to look at the camera anymore.....

What I Love about Sundays

This morning when my alarm went off, the radio was playing that song by Craig Morgan (I think he is the one who sings it:) What I Love about Sundays . . . and it got me thinking.....

What Meaghan Loves about Sundays:

* The look on Molly's face when I am there when she wakes up in the morning
* The car ride to church
* How cute the kiddos look when they are clean and dressed for church (esp David in his
white shirt and tie! adorable!)
*Feeling the peace the Spirit brings during Sacrament Meeting . . . . . .
and then realizing Molly has escaped and is screaming "Weeeee!" as she runs around the pews.
*Singing during Primary
* Getting to snuggle a sleeping baby
* Seeing how much Molly loves nursery, her new teacher, and new friends
* After Church NAPS for everyone!
* Spending a lazy afternoon as a family, making dinner together and hanging out.

The worst part about Sunday is that it has to end.
Real life resumes, back to work and back to the crazyness of the Monday - Friday routine.
I love everything about Sundays

Bubbles!!!

For Molly's birthday this year we bought her a bubble machine! Laziness on our part because we were tired of blowing them for her. . . . :) Anyways - I finally snapped a few pictures of her playing in them and of David watching his crazy sister!




Molly is trying to whack all the bubbles with a ginormous glue stick ..... on a side note - I'm not sure I have ever used a glue gun that big, mine is a teeny one don't know where it came from! Anyways the challenge is making sure David doesn't get accidentally whacked while Molly is aiming for bubbles!




There for awhile I would wonder if Molly would ever decide that she actually likes David. Amazingly - she has! She loves her "Baby David"! She will sit and play with him - rush to comfort him and make him smile when he is sad! She even likes to try and feed him his baby snacks! He loves her too - I think he is always amazed at her running around and laughing! He finds her very entertaining!

Little Artist

I found my old acrylic paints and canvas (back from my days of working at Michael's!) when we moved and I decided to let Molly paint a picture for her room!

She took the painting very seriously - telling me which colors she wanted to use and where to squirt it on the paper plate! She was very proud of her masterpiece!
