"Mom I would really like to take violin lessons, piano lessons and...YoYo lessons. I would love to learn how to YoYo."

And that is why her life rocks, because her biggest desire is to learn to YoYo!

She's trying...

Layne is turning into such a big girl.

Yesterday she went potty 4 times. And so far this morning she has kept her diaper dry!
after she goes she is soooo proud of herself so we have been having a lot of potty parties.

We took her to DQ last night for a treat after she went!

I let her wear panties while we are home...under constant supervision. she has had a few disastrous accidents, but I guess that is part of all of it.

It makes me sad that she is getting so big!

(so do my eyes look really close together and cheeks look really big? I am just saying!)

Saturday night we played Payson. All of the boys played really good and we won. It was fun to watch and it was Chantz's last game in the dome! Crazy he is a senior...I thought I just graduated!

running the ball

Talking to a reporter after the game.

My parents always say "we are not raising a football player".
Chantz's is the sweetest little brother in the world. No joke!(sorry Race).
He basically is my dad just 35 years younger. He never gets mad and is so calm and easy going.
Football will be over in a couple of weeks
I guess what I am trying to say is Quarterback or not I think he is awesome.

Happy Halloween!!!

We had a great and very busy Halloween. We went and got a load of wood in the morning. It was the girls' first time and they loved it.


Here are a ton of pictures of our busy fun day!


Camo getting her face painted

Kenzi and Kooper all dressed up and looking cute.

The girls and Great-Grandma Nicoll

Trick or Treating at Grammie's

Little miss Lady Bug, Rapunzel and Wendy

Katie's family was the cast from Peter Pan. I didn't get a picture of them all together, but it was pretty killer.

This is Chantz's costume(my idea)...he was a fat 'chance'

Katie even made a 'tower' for Rapunzel.

Nash was my very favorite. He was an airman. LOVED IT!

Carving our pumpkin

She did it....

She survived her first day in nursery!
She walked right in and when they said her name she turned around and walked right out!
I left immediately. I couldn't listen to her cry.
She was fine the next time I checked on her. No tears, just a little leery of everything.
When she came home she smelled like perfume...I think poor sister Peters had to hold her the whole time!

Some of my faves

Why is it that only moms want to take family pictures?
The kids cry and whine and the dad's do this......

Ok. Maybe not everyone has to deal with this guy trying to make you laugh.

We got some really good pictures this time, thanks to Colleen and Linde!

Until I post the good ones, here are a few that won't make the christmas card

These ones kill me, watch Camo's facial expressions. Colleen was just snapping away and Cam was posing like crazy.
