Goooooo COUGARS!

We went to the BYU vs. Air Force football game on Saturday (thanks again Brian & Rachel for the great tickets!) The girls did pretty well. Liesel spent most of the time pretending to giggle...and kicking everyone around her trying to decide where to sit.

Eliza wanted to go home until we snatched her friend Hailey from a few rows behind and had her sit with us...Thanks for being such a great cheer partner Hailey!Lydia was by far the happiest of the bunch...she was a perfect angle to whole game.It was great to see our Cougars pull out another win. We had a few mistakes but overall they played well. We are hoping and cheering them on to another win this weekend against Utah...COME ON COUGARS...YOU CAN DO IT!

Excuse the delay but...

Happy Halloween!
We've been distracted at our house with voting and designing our Christmas Card and with this... A little book for my sister of the pictures I took at her reception (sorry Jen that it is so late).

Here are a few pictures from our Halloween. We went to a couple of different parties so the girls were a Snowman, Bee, and Ladybug for one and Cheerleaders for the other. They loved the fun.






The girls favorite part of the whole holiday was handing out Candy to trick-or-treaters on Halloween night. Daniel had school and I wasn't about to take them by myself. Eliza loved holding the bowl and telling the high schoolers to say Happy Halloween before they got a treat. Fun times.
On another note...my Christmas card is turning out super cute...if you want one in the mail send along your address!

Ten on Tuesday

1. Did you know there is a Prophet on the earth today. President Thomas S. Monson spoke to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on Saturday and Sunday. You can listen to him and other leaders here.
2. I ran across this picture of Liesel the other day. I just love it.


3. QOTD: (Which is actually the quote of everyday) Eliza: When Andrew gets married, I get to see Princesses! Can you tell we are excited to go to California?

4. Lydia is working on getting her second tooth. She has also decided she will not eat another spoonful of baby food. Only the good stuff now. Sometimes when she knows that we are eating something that she doesn't have she'll start to yell at us. She is learning from her sisters really quickly.

5. We built a fort the other day and the girls loved it. Even Lydia wanted to get in on the fun. She would crawl in and look around and then get distracted by something else. As soon as Eliza and Liesel would start giggling though...she was right back to the fun.

6. Looking for some fun Halloween crafts and treats? We loved looking here.

7. Did you know that Sleeping Beauty came out today? I am so excited to go get our copy. Eliza and I were dancing and singing all morning.

8. My sweet neighbor Peggy came over today with my birthday present...a new plant. It is so cute and I already re potted it and have a spot picked out. Oh how a plant can liven up a place.

9. Book Review: Have all of you heard about the new Nursery Manuel put out by the church? It is fantastic. We have been using the lessons for Family Home Evening and the girls love them. We don't have to ask them to sit and be quiet. It truly is a blessing from heaven. You can download all the lessons and picture here.

10. We had our very own football party last Friday Night. BYU was playing Utah State and we watched over the Internet. To celebrate the occasion we decorated and I made these.

The party was a huge hit and the Cougars Won! It was a great night for all.

Quick Update

This post is long overdue. Hopefully this week our Internet will get hooked up at our house and the updates will be more frequent.
We want to send a big welcome to Baby Will...Congrats Scott and Nicol...we hope that parenthood is treating you well.
Also a big congrats to Andrew, Daniels brother, who recently got engaged. We are so excited for your big day and for the family fun afterwords. Welcome to the family Tara!
Our family also had a couple of big events happen the last couple of weeks. Lydia broke her first tooth. We are thrilled to have it here and hope that the following teeth aren't quite as messy.
Our other news is Daniel's promotion at work. Daniel has been promoted to the Strategic Marketing Manager for the Colorado Division of Pulte Homes. We are so grateful for this opportunity and so proud of our dad and all his hard work. We love you Daniel.
