iPhone pictures

Tanner practiced braiding on Ashlyn. 
 Amber doing yoga with me. This was supposed to be "bird dog" pose. 
 I decided I can't do yoga at home. I just become a jungle gym. 

 I helped at Dallin's Halloween party this year. I stopped in at Tanner's too. I love that they still like having me around. :)

Last couple weeks as captured on my iPhone

We went up to Vancouver a couple weeks ago so I could take some pictures of some families there. The kids got to play with their cousins for the weekend while I worked, and Nate babysat. It was lots of fun.
We went to an indoor play place since it was raining all day.

The kids are still talking about this place almost a month later. We need one of these in Medford.
 These two need to live close to each other. They get a long so well! I want them to be besties their whole lives. One of my best friends is my cousin.
Dallin liked plunking around on their piano. He has been doing piano lessons for a few months.
The other night I went to see if the girls were covered before I went to bed, and this is what I found. So sweet. 
Ashlyn got a hold of my phone the other day and I found these later. Love her silliness. And look at the size of her eyes!
 Tanner is a Bear in scouts and he had a pack meeting. The whole family looks forward to pack meeting because it means a fun treat. They made rice crispy treat turkeys at the last one. 

Tanner saved his money for this little skate board. 

We had a fun Halloween this year. The weather was pretty mild.  The older kids all went ahead with Paul and Paula, and Me and Nate and my sister Tracie went with Amber and Whitney. It is fun to see how people respond to cute little princesses. 


 I found these costumes and a few others at the store after Halloween. They were a couple bucks so we have some new dress up clothes!

Halloween

We kind of started Halloween on Thursday this year. Ashlyn had a party at her preschool that I helped with, then on Friday the boys had their parties at school, which I went to. 
On Halloween we got together with Paul and Paula's family like we usually do. Had pizza, went trick or treating and watched Hocus Pocus while binging on candy. Good times.

Amber and Whitney were princesses


Dallin was Spider Man, and Drew was Bat Man.

 Group photo before trick or treating. 

 Tanner and Joel were football players. Seattle Seahawks, of course. 

We did the Halloween fun run at the boys' school too. It was a packed day. 
This is a pic I snagged from Tana who took pictures at our ward Halloween carnival.


Chowing down on candy after trick or treating at the church carnival.



Tanner's Fall Soccer

Tanner has played with this team for a couple of years now. They are all really great friends. He played with Joel and Li. 




Li was an amazing goalie. 

 Joel was super speedy.
 Tanner has improved a lot this season. He is much more aggressive. 


Ashlyn is such a good cheer leader. Not really, but she is always at the game supporting the boys.


 Nate coached Dallin's team, which I am ashamed to say I didn't photograph at all this season. :( Probably wouldn't have done Tanners if their coach didn't ask me to take a group shot of them.
 The traditional high 5 at the end. 

Ashlyn's birthday party

She's 5!
She had a couple friends over on her birthday for crafts, games, and ice-cream sundaes. It was a costume party and her girl friends all came as princesses.

Hope

 Dallin joined the girls with the crafts. 
 Amber
 Rebecca. I was just noticing they all have princess sounding names. :)
 They popped the balloons to get treats. And threw a ball and cans.


Her favorite part. I almost think it is better not to open presents at parties. Ashlyn became antisocial once she had a bunch of new toys to play with.
