My Christmas Tree!

Ok so this year i wanted my Christmas tree to be different then what i have always done in the past. So i decided i wanted to go with more of a Country Tree. So I have this particular idea on what i wanted my tree to look like. But trying to find the ornament's that i was looking for, i wasn't having any luck finding any. So i decided to make my own Christmas ornament's. Me and my friend Avalon seen these cute cardboard ornament's at Roberts and decided it would be cute if we mod podge scrapbook paper on them and then put cute rub on Christmas stickers over the scrapbook paper. I was a little nervous with the paper i had picked out, but once i put my tree all together it turned out to be what i wanted my country Christmas tree to turn out like. It turned out cuter then i thought it was going to. Avalon you will have to post yours so i can see how yours turned out. So here are a few of the Christmas ornament's that i made, let me know what you think, the pictures arn't the best, sorry. These are very easy to make and really fun, so if you want to know how to make them let me know.

Playing in the Leaf's!

Sorry these pictures are not very clear, my camera has problem when it's cold outside. But on Monday night for family home evening, Me and Jaren decided that we would go out side and rake up all of our leaf's and clean up our yard and get it ready for winter. We had so many leaf's in our yard that that was the only thing that we got done for the night. Jayden had a blast playing in the leaf though. He wasn't much help but he had so much fun. He loved to go set right in the middle of the leaf pile and then try to climb out of it. He kept doing that over and over again. Jaren kept getting irritated with use because we kept wrecking up his leaf piles but i thought it was funny. It was so CUTE! He was having fun. Eventually we got the job done before it got to dark.

Jayden's Halloween Night!

I have been dieing to find time these last two days to post Jayden's Halloween pictures because they turned out so cute. Halloween this year was so much fun for Me & Jaren and for Jayden. This year he could actually walk, so that made it so much more easier for me. It was so sad to see him in her pirate costume because he looked so big in it, he didn't look like a baby anymore and that makes me so sad. He loved his costume! He would go and look in the mirror on my door and he would get so excited to see his self, he loved it! At almost every person's house that we went to that night they had to get a picture of him and he would pose for them like a model like he knew what he was doing. It was pretty funny. I was actually surprised how well he kept his hat on the whole night. He normally just takes them off and throws them on the floor, but he kept it on almost the whole night. The sword was a different story. He didn't want anything to do with that. That he did chuck on the floor. Other then that our Halloween night was a lot of fun!

"Thriller"

Every year in October we always go down to the Tuacon in St. George and go to the show "Thriller" with Jaren's family. It is something that we always look forward to every year. It has always been so much fun for us. This year we were debating whether or not to take Jayden to it or not and now i am glad we didn't, he probley would have screamed, because when we were setting in our seats waiting for the show to start they usually have these scary looking people from the show walk around the crowd and come up from behind you and try to scare you, and yes they did scary me a few time and i hated it. So thanks to my sweet sister Keisha who live in St. George offered to watch Jayden while we went to the show. I am really not a big fan of Halloween, that's just because i am a big scaredy pants, but every time we go to Thriller it always seem to get me excited for Halloween. If you have never been to the show "Thriller", i highly recommend that you go some time it is so worth going to.

The MTC...

On Wednesday at noon we took Jordan up to the MTC. It was the saddest day ever. i didn't realize how hard that was going to be. It was so hard to see my little brother walk away for two years. The whole day i did so good with out crying and right after the closing pray at the MTC i lost it. i knew our goodbyes were coming. I have never seen him look so scared in my life, i wanted to go with him. Before he went to the MTC we went and ate at Cafe Rio, he was so nervous he couldn't even eat. We kept telling him "you better eat that because you might not get to eat at Cafe Rio for two years." Avia was so funny all she kept saying is " You guys this is Terrible! Don't Cry we will come pick him up tomorrow." She was so cute, but it was so sad for him because he love's his little "Tinker Pants" He squeezed Jayden and Madix and cried and we all cried too, they obviously didn't understand what was going on but it was so cute. It is so crazy to think they will be three when he comes home. It is going to be so weired around my mom and dad house without him there. He was always the one that made it so fun and always made us laugh, but we know he is where he is suppose to be and we wouldn't want it any other way. He is going to make a great missionary. We love you Jordan!
