October 2016

We had a really warm fall this year so we made a trip down to Moab for camping and hiking with our Bonner cousins.  The kids had a blast and the parents survived!






















Arches at the arches


 Jaymi and her cute friend Tessa from school.


Tessa's little sister Naomi is in Bryn's gymnastics class, they are all so cute with my girls.  






Jaymi catching some cute selfies


We were part of a cute little photo shoot for Down Syndrome Awareness Month.  Kaelyn was so cute playing but was not too into getting her pictures taken.  Jaymi was awesome holding baby Indy the whole time.  So much cuteness!











Had our annual Reece's Rainbow Utah Mom's overnighter in Park City.  I love these women so much and can't get enough of our time together!  Such a spiritual and uplifting weekend.



Cute baby Noah crashed the party and we couldn't have been more HAPPY!  He is the sweetest.  I would have smiled if I knew she was taking this picture :)


We were able to join with the Cox Family and Simpson Family to talk about our adoptions and it was so touching to hear and share our stories and be reminded of the miracles that brought our children home to our families.


It took a couple weeks but we finally got Bryn out to her birthday dinner.  She requested Wendy's so she could have chicken nuggets and a frosty.


Cute sisters


Bryn and I got to join Kaelyn's class at their fieldtrip to the zoo.  We had beautiful weather and had a great day.











Kaelyn was in heaven at the little play place they added this year.  She was up down up down and all around.  It took everything I had to keep up with her.




Jaymi and Mia are seriously the cutest friends.  Jaymi was so excited to have her over for a play date and show her around grandma's house.


I finally got the girl's dance pictures from last year.  I love that they were able to dance together the last couple years.



Kaelyn loves this cute little pumpkin she brought home from school.  She played with it for a while, carrying it around the house with her.


I helped put on a UDSF Family swim party to celebrate Down Syndrome Awareness Month.  We had a great turn out and it was so fun meeting new families and catching up with old friends.











Bryn and I spent an afternoon at Gardner Village with Jamie and Avery to have lunch and see the cute witches.



Bryn and I went through one of the cute stores and she wanted to pose for pictures on just about every piece of furniture we passed.




Bryn's little preschool field trip to the pumpkin patch







Kaelyn was a little Tinkerbelle for her school Costume Parade.  This picture looks like her teacher is holding her hands so she doesn't fly away.


September Birthday girls got to come with Me and Rick with Grandma LaJean to our birthday dinner.


We made it to watch Carson and Jackson's playoff football game.  They both played awesome!





I joined Emily and her boys to watch Jaymi, Kinslie and Melia in their costume parade.  Carters costume was awesome!








Another great year of trick or treating.







We went back over to the old neighborhood and had a great time running into many of our old neighbors and friends.


For the third year in a row we ended at the Anderson's to pass out candy and visit.



Wayne took to girls to our cute friend Abby's birthday bowling party while I played in a volleyball tournament.
