November!

The first part of November my sister-in-law Beth and I threw a shower for our niece Sarah who is getting married on December 19th. Her mom Marla(Doug's sister) was in town so it was a great time to do the shower. We had it at Beth's house in Spanish Fork. It was a fun shower! We played a fun game with dividing in teams and having to make a wedding dress out of toilet paper! Sarah picked the winner! Megan, Amanda, and Marisa were the models.

The next day Doug and the kids and I went back down to Spanish Fork to visit with Marla and have a family get together with everyone that lives here in Utah.

The kids had a fun time playing in the snow for the first time! I snuggled Isaac up and took him outside to help me hang up Christmas lights!This is us shopping for a present of cousin Tay who was turning one. This is my usual way of shopping, a kid on each side and Isaac on the middle. I have found that I don't like shopping too much with the kids those because we usually are quite a spectacle.

Tay had fun eating his birthday cake! It was pretty funny though because he would not touch the cake that Camillia made just for him that was a yellow cake. But as soon as she put a piece of chocolate cake on his tray he went to town! That's my kind of boy!
It had been a really long time since we have been to the Dinosaur Park in Ogden. Jacob and Brynlee really enjoys watching Dinosaur Train on PBS so we decided to take a trip to the park. We had a blast and knew quite a bit about the dinosaurs from the show!
