Oh, we love shoes and cousins!

 

Every night after bath time this is a must! I wrap the towel around her and she goes and finds Daddy, who is normally studying and then gets some much needed snuggle time!….Oh how Daddy loves this!

Her love for Shoes is never ending! She was so proud to have these big boots on!

On Sunday she put on my shoes and headed for the door….She was devastated when we didn’t let her go out!

Oh how this little Goof makes us laugh!

Tate is in Utah for the week and Madison misses her play buddy Oh SO much…..I miss mine too (miss ya Em)!

Jessie came TO THE RESUE this past week and Madison and Julia had SO much fun together! This is the first time they’ve really liked to play together, I think Madie is finally old enough! I had hernia surgery this last week and now can’t lift anything over 10 lbs for 4-6 weeks. Thank heavens Jessie came or we wouldn’t have made it!

Their Favorite thing to do was play with Julia’s Make Up!

Madie LOVED baby Lacey! She loved to hold her and even just sit by her. Even now if I ask her what her baby’s name is she’ll say “ cecey”!

Jessie and I made Christmas Trees out of these and I forgot to take a picture of the finished product but I’ll post them later. The girls thought they were the coolest hats ever!

This was the other morning….her and her baby are wrapped in the blankets watching Sesame Street!….Oh she’s so cute with her baby!

Love you all, we’re doing well….I’m healing really well and JD is getting into crazy mode for finals…..But HURRAY we’re half way through Law School now!!!!!

Our Little Witch…and her boyfriend Dracula!!

 

Two weeks ago we had our ward Halloween Party! It was a lot of fun. I made cupcakes for the cupcake contest and WON! JD, my sis Kieley, and her boyfriend Adam all helped to make them. I’ll post more pictures and a little bit about how we made them on my craft blog!

Here’s our cute little witch just before the party!

Madison and Tate looked SO great together! They had a great time together at the party. Madison was tired and moping around before Tate got there, then when Tate came she got crazy!

Trying to give Tate a kiss!

Yes we were boring this year and didn’t dress up; but we still look good! In the picture above Madison is saying, “moo”! There was a little girl in our ward who was a fluffy cow and Madison LOVED it! She chased her all night and would pet her and say “moo”! It was very cute!

Here is Trick or Treating from last night….They had the time of their life!!!

Yes they like to kiss! And yes us parents encourage it!

This is my best friend Emily and I. I’m so grateful they live right above us, I think this semester would be rough without her!

As you can see they were having fun! Madison has a big smile!

Madison would quietly say “doo” after each place, that means “thank you”!

Ok so this house was the best house ever! As you can see on her face she is terrified, and yes JD is laughing like crazy – well we all were! But as you can see Madison got herself a FULL sized snickers bar out of it!

They had real people dressed up through out their yard that would then move when you got close and really scary music. Both Tate and Madie were SO scared but they stuck it out and got their candy. ….But us terrible parents wanted better pictures of their terror so we went back and put them through it again for the pics below!!!!! As soon as JD but Madison down she just started to run toward the street…..When Emily put Tate down he began to cry uncontrollably!!

And yes we all laughed at our scared children!

We had a great time! Tate and Madison also had a great time… they were still wanting more even after we were done! The look of wonder on their faces when the first person put candy in their bags was priceless! I’ve never enjoyed Halloween so much as I did this year!! ….On and after some hot chocolate and putting the kids to bed we watched “What Lies Beneath” with Donny and Emily while enjoying a shake!
