Lauryn's Baptism

Lauryn was just recently baptized on Saturday Dec 6. It was a fun experience for our entire family. It was Bryson's first time baptizing and he was really excited! I can't believe that Lauryn is 8 yrs old it is crazy:)
Doesn't she look so pretty in her dress:)

The boys didn't want to be in any pics until later that night. The wait was worth it, Boy are they cute!!

Halloween night

And they're off!!! CANDY CANDY CANDY!!!
Lauryn and Brayden waiting for Tyler to get ready to go. They are trying to be patient.....

This was one quick picture for Lauryn BUT for Brayden, Tyler and myself it took 45 mins to get. I asked Lauryn in the morning if she really needed me to come to the school parade because It was early and I had the two boys. She said I had to come or she would be the only kid without their mom there. So I agreed to come. It WAS supposed to start at 9:30 and be to the gym by 9:40 I arrived at 9:30 got a good seat, considering Lauryn was right every parent and grandparent was there. At about 10:00 the kids finally started coming through Lauryn's class was the 2nd to the last one to come through at 10:15. But hey, I was there and I have this ONE picture to prove it:)

Brayden waiting for Lauryn. He was a good sport:)

Luckily I had enough food to keep Tyler busy till the parade of kids started.

carving pumpkins

Carving pumpkins!!! Tyler ate about..... 4 suckers.
Lauryn carved her whole pumpkin by herself this year and Brayden was the best little pumpkin scooper. He cleaned out his and my pumpkins:)As Brayden said "you did a great job, Dad" Bry helped carve Braydens pumpkin

Lauryn and me with our finished pumpkins:) No surprise mine is a happy pumpkin(Lauryn thinks mine is boring but I can't bring myself to make a mean one.

From left to right mine, Tylers, Braydens, Brys and Lauryns.

It's going to be a great Halloween!!

Halloween Costumes

Saturday we went and got the kids thier Halloween costumes. Lauryn is Padme from Star WarsII and we tried to convince Brayden to be Obi wan but we failed hence Brayden the clown:) My "tough" boy is a clown where did we go wrong??
Everytime I look at him I can't stop laughing he is stinking cute!!

I think Lauryns costume is perfect for her. She looks so cute too!!


Tyler didn't feel good so he wouldn't put on his costume. He is going to be a tiger:)
