{Pumpkin Patch}

















On Saturday, we went to the pumpkin patch to pick out some pumpkins. We got to ride on a wagon pulled by a tractor out to the patch. It made Dereks life complete, I have never seen a more giddy child! We got some good pumpkins and everyone was happy.

{We LOVE Goats!}







































We went to the Utah State Fair this year, and it was so much fun! Our favorite part each year is definitely the goats. We love them!!! Derek especially, he is my animal lover for sure. He's just like his mommy! He loved riding the ponies and they each got to ride one ride. The rides at the fair scare me, they don't seem to safe, not to mention the folks running them. It was a fun day!!!

{My 3 Little Ones}







Since Blake is in afternoon kindergarten this year, I get to spend every morning with my 3 youngest boys. Sometimes it is really hard because Blake and Derek are ultra competitive and like to fight a lot. But most days are so fun with them! When they are getting along, it is fabulous. I really dislike afternoon kindergarten because Blake was still taking long afternoon naps, and now he doesn't get them. But, it is nice to have my 3 little boys with me in the morning. I love them so very, very much!



{Happy 95th Birthday Grandpa Walt!}











September 11th was my Grandpa Walts 95th Birthday. We celebrated at the super yummy Texas Roadhouse. Grandpa was such a good sport and got on the saddle! I am so thankful that my grandpa is around to be a part of my kids lives. They adore him, especially Kylie. She is definitely grandpas girl! We love you Grandpa Walt!!!

{Back to School}




I'm a litte behind, things have been SO busy. Ethan, Kylie, and Blake have started their school year. I was a little sad to see the freedom of getting up in the morning to do whatever we wanted go, but it has been actually really nice. My kids are so much happier when they are busy. Ethan is in 6th grade, can't believe it! Ky is in 1st grade, I was a little sad to have her gone all day. Blake is in Kindergarten, he had to be put in afternoon and I hate it because he is used to having at least a 2 hour nap and he is somewhat crabby when he gets home. They all have fabulous teachers and I think it will be a great year!!! :)

{Baby Name}


We had our 20 week ultrasound yesterday and I am so happy to say that our sweet baby is super healthy and is still a girl!!! I have been a little hestitant to buy girl things and really get into the 'girl' thing. But now it is 100% for sure a little girl!!!:)
Her name will be Lillian Pearl, but we will call her Lily. Adrian loves the name Lily and Pearl is for my sweet grandma Pearl who passed away in July. I knew she would send me a baby girl!:)

{JDRF Walk For A Cure}













Saturday was the JDRF walk for a cure at Wheeler Farms. It was so much fun! The kids had a blast and we all had a great time seeing the animals. A lot of money was raised to find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes, which is such a crappy disease! I am so proud of my Ethan for handling his diabetes so well and never complaining, he is such a trooper! :)
Also, thanks to everyone who donated this year. We really appreciate it!!!
