Trick or Treat Town

James and I took the boys to "Trick or Treat Town." Its where local businesses set up booths in the ACS warehouse so that kids can trick or treat and stay warm. There we a lot of really cute costumes there. Connor is at such a fun age. Everything is finally making sense to him. Grayden isnt quite there but he sure liked the candy. We had a fun time.

I think the pictures say it all.

More funny things from the mouth of my first born.

We were sitting at dinner the other night. Grayden was being cranky so I was shaking up crayons in the box to try to entertain him. He grabbed the box from me and chucked them to the ground. Connor the said, "What a good idea!" And chucked his to the ground as well.

Recently a close friend lost her baby girl. It is very sad. While we were shopping Connor asked me where Ronda(my friend) was. I told him she was at home. He then asked where Lilly(her daughter) was. I told him that she was also at home. Then he asked where Gabe(her son) was. I told him at school. Then he asked where Lucy(the daughter that she lost) was. I told him that Lucy went to live with Heavenly Father and Jesus. He didnt quite understand. I didnt know how to explain, so I asked him if he remembered the time he lost his balloon and it went way up high in the sky. He remembered. I told him Lucy went up to live in Heaven like the balloon. He thought about it for a second and then asked if she took an airplane there. I giggle a little and told him no. He then asked, "Did Ronda throw her up there?"


Yesterday while driving Connor asked me if I was a sister. I said, "Yes." He then said, "Im a brother." I again said, "Yes." He then replied, "Grayden is a brother too." I said, "Yes he is." To that he replied, "The church calls us all brothers and sisters, huh?"

Sick Parents

It happened. Going to bed on Saturday night I felt off and by the time I got up Sunday morning I knew I had got the bug. I was down all day Sunday. I felt a little better on Monday, but James was home from work with the bug. Being sick is lame. James went back to work yesterday feeling better. I was better as well. Now I am feeling worse again. Why is it so easy for kids to bounce back? I guess I would be prefer to be sick longer though and have my babies better though. Thankfully I have really good kids and sitting around for a few days to get better isnt a big deal.
