The Cutest Pumpkin In Town!!





Well, our Halloween was a blast. When Trent got off work we ate pizza and put Evelyn in her costume. Which was a great find. $7 thank you eBay. I was not about to pay $40 for a tiny baby costume. It was really comfy for her and kept her warm. Even though it wasn't very cold up here today. Evelyn watched her cousins Lucy & Abby trick or treat at some houses close to ours. Then we went home and put Evelyn to bed. It was the funnest Halloween I have ever had. It is much funner when you have a little one to dress up.

Leaves, Leaves, & More Leaves:)


There were so many leaves on the ground at the park. That we couldn't resist so see what Evelyn would do in them. We had lots of fun. She can sit by herself now for about 1-2 minutes at a time. It is very exciting. She is getting to be so big.

OuR HaLLowEen PrEP


We carved our pumkins today. It was lots of fun. This is one of my favorite things to do at Halloween. Mine is the far left, Evelyn's in the middle. (if you can't tell she has pacifier for a mouth)Trent's on the right, love the grin. I have never been the biggest Halloween fan. In fact I used to hate it. I love the cutsie stuff about it and HATE all the scary gross stuff. A haunted house I went to in 4th grade changed everything. We lived in Pinetop AZ at the time and the 6th graders were putting on a haunted house in a classroom. Everyone was talking about it for weeks..so excited right? Any kid would be!! We anxiously lined up in the hall with our 50 cents to get in. The first part wasn't that scary to me. But, as I kept going...I couln't help but be scared. It was like this crazy maze. I didn't really have any friends around me. To hang on to or anything. Towards the end I came upon these loose boards you have to walk across. When..all of the sudden someone...or something had grabbed my ancle and wouldn't let go. I saw a face come up as well...I was SO SCARED!! I grabbed on to some boy in my class and we were both trying to get out of there ASAP. I ended up bawling when I got out. Never again did I go to another haunted house...and probably won't ever again in my lifetime. So there you have it the story that scarred me. Thanks to the stupid 6th grader who ruined me...lol. This is probably also the reason I don't do scary movies. Intense I love but not scary. I was about to cry in the theater when I saw "I am Legend" with Trent. I think about them way to long after...in my dreams also. So, I am curious if you are like me or love to be scared. Let me know!!

My Five Month Photo Shoot

The Alpine Loop






On Sunday we wanted to get out and have always wanted to take the Alpine Loop drive. Up Provo Canyon. We only made it half way. But, I wanted to share some photos I got. I really love the fall colors and take photos whenever I get the chance. This isn't the best ones of me. I still am fighting to lose the baby weight. I never knew it would be so tough. Trent always looks so handsome. I am a very lucky girl. My favorite is the one of Evelyn smiling so big though. She is getting more fun every day.

David Archuleta Corn Maze!!



We headed with our ward to Thanksgiving Point to go in the David Archuleta corn maze. I guess they cut it to look like his face this year. Trent is almost always working when the ward is doing something, so we never get to go. However this night he was free. I was kind of depressed I thought the real David would be there...I am a big fan. He is so cute. Trent just laughs at me. It was fun..but I wouldn't recommend bringing a young baby. It was Evelyns bedtime and her hunger bell was going to ring any second. It was very confusing and Trent wanted to take the time to figure it out. But, I was just so stressed (hence my messed bangs) I didn't want to get lost and then have Evelyn lose it. So...Thank You Emergency Exit. We took it and we walked right to our car. We headed home. It was still fun to be the ward that night. We took turns holding her. This is her new coat we just bought her at Baby Gap. I got it on sale...NO I can't afford to shop there. LOL

Photos From Grammy's Camera



I love this photo of Evelyn and me. I think we look alike. And the close up of her face with her little hand.
