Avery and Rylee's room

After being in our house for almost 5 years it was time to give the girls room a makeover. And since Jayden has graduated to not having to share a room any more, it was time to put add a little for Rylee since in the beginning the room was Jaydens and Averys. I am so glad how it turned out! I almost don't want them going in there! Now all I need to do is get them new bedding the pastels don't quite go with the new colors! So here are some before and after pictures. And I designed and decorated all by my self, with of course the help of Randen making sure that I hung everything level!

Halloween '09

This year Avery dressed up as a dead prom queen, Rylee was a cute pink Witch, Jayden wore her soccer uniform as she does pretty much every day of her life, and Tyler handed out the candy to the trick or treaters! Avery was in character all night acting the part of being dead, and Rylee was so cute running from house to house getting candy. We were lucky to get one picture with Jayden because she is getting too cool to trick or treat with her familyshe would rather hang out with her friends, and Tyler is way past the picture stage or even getting dressed up a little bit for that matter! Avery learned some of the dance from the Michael Jackson video Thriller, and would perform that from time to time! She is quite the little dancer! What a fun year!

Halloween party at Grandma Barneys

This year we had a fun Halloween party at my Grandma Barneys house. All the grandmas went to a lot of work to make sure that the grandkids had fun. They painted, and decorated pumpkins. Had Halloween cupcakes in Spider decorated glasses, and of course they all got a spider ring. After all the fun they all got their own little treat bags! The party started at 3 pm, and I had to work that night, so just left from grandmas to work. Randen told me that he was not going to be too much longer, he was tired, had been out in the cold all morning at Jaydens soccer game, and I got a phone call around midnight saying he was just leaving Grandmas house. He said they had a lot of fun, I was of course expecting the whining of thanks for leaving me with all the kids at your family party, but the complete opposite. Poor little Rylee crashed on the floor, and instead of leaving her alone the adults including her dad sprayed her with silly string, decorated her with spieders, worms, and all sorts of disgusting things. She did not even move he said, she was that tired! He took some pictures of her on his phone, and when I got home the next morning from work I showed her them, and she said who is that? When I told her it was her she looked at me and said, "who would do that to me?" I pointed to her dad, and she just started to laugh, and of course kept wanting to see the pictures over and over again!

Scottie and Andraya

My little brother Scottie and my new sister-in-law got married! It was very special to Avery because she was able to be the flower girl! They had their wedding in the Price Utah Airport hanger. A first for me to be at a wedding in an airport hanger, but very beautiful! Andraya's dad, is a pilot, and my Grandpa Jim is a retired pilot, so after the wedding, and reception they were able to take off in a one in a kind send off's! Andraya's dad and my Grandpa flew them to the Provo Airport where Scottie had dropped their car off, and then from their they stayed in Park City for the weekend!

Tired kiddos!

After a long day at Frightmares the kids were exhausted! Before we hit the freeway I looked back, and this is what I saw! What a nice quiet ride home!

Haunted house

Randen and the kids went through one of the haunted houses right before we left. They all made sure we got our moneys worth! I think we hit every attraction at least twice, and we had to run not walk!

Haunted Ride

The last ride of the night. Tyler and I rode together, we make a good team, we both hate being scared! But I got some pretty good pretty good pictures!
