Cute Kiddos!






Happy Birthday Isaac!






It seems impossible to believe that our sweet Isaac is 5! He had a great time with friends at his house having a Transformers Party. Happy Birthday Big Boy!

Autumn 2007






We've had a great time this year raking leaves and playing outside in our new yard! The boys were actually a great help in not only playing in the leaves, but raking them up as well!

SNOW in October!






That's right....we had a big snow during the first part of October. That's even early in Utah standards! Daddy and Ethan snuck out and made a cute little snowman. Too bad he melted in about 2 hours!

Baby Leia Finds THE CANDY!





Abby had a great time this year!

Moving & The New House






Here are a few photos of moving and the new house!

Missouri






Here are just a few from my Missouri Trip

So Much To Say

There's so much to tell about right now and so much to be thankful for! When Justin and I think of all of our blessings as of late, we both feel overwhelmed. How can so many good things happen to one little family. Our children are the biggest blessing in our lives. They are so loving and kind-not to mention a ton of laughs constantly. We both enjoy going to our jobs and being in the "corporate world" during the day, but it is so refreshing to step into pre-school when we get home. We relish in the opportunity to get down on the floor and paint, play star wars toys or whatever they want to do. It really is a fun time. We both love the Fall and Halloween so do our kids! I even let the boys put up tombstones in the front yard for Halloween. We spent last night making dozens of pumpkin cookies to take to the new neighbors. Of all that is going for us, I feel especially lucky to have gained the love of such a wonderful man. He has spent countless hours as of late hanging curtains, replacing fixtures, unpacking and many other honey doos! I am fortunate to have such a handsome, kind and supportive hubby!
in sad news, I just returned from a week visit to Missouri. My great-grandmother was 95 and passed away last week. She was a wonderful woman who led an amazing life and I will forever be changed by her prescence! Abby and i had a wonderful time visiting with friends and family we had not seen in some time. I saw my father for the first time in 5 years and even cousins I had not seen in over 15 years! I will post a few pics.....Smiles & Hugs!

Family Dance





We ended family camp with a fun dance the last night, the kids LOVED IT!

MOVING DAYS

We are currently in the process of relocating to our new, beautiful, spacious home! We are all sad to leave this one but need room to spread our wings...ALL OF US. When the boys saw our new master closent the other night they said, "Woa, mom whose room is this?" I told them that this is where my clothes, shoes, handbags and jewelry will live and now there's room for daddy to buy me more! Our numbers should remain the same and I will send out cards so that everyone has our new address. Let the unpacking begin...will take until Christmas at least. I am excited about all the "extras" this house has. There are even 2 drinking fountains (1 indoor and 1 outdoor) which the boys love!

As the Hill House Turns

We have had quite a few dramatic twists and turns with the sale of our home. Long story short, the people who had put an offer in on the house and was proceeding to buy lost their financing. This was a bit of a shock to us considering we had taken our home off the market for about 30 days during the high sale season. After this happend, we were convinved by our agent to go back to the other couple who had previously put an offer in on the home and see if they were still interested on buying the home. They put an offer in 10k less than their original offer and there began a week of tough negotiation! The end is that the house is sold (I think :) and we move in 13 days! We are excited event though we had to take a little less than what we had hoped. This new house will be a dream home for us! Got any boxes???
