Halloween Carnival!

On Friday we went to our wards Halloween carnival and it was a blast! Thatcher loved dressing up and being in his costum. He also loved watching all the other people in their costums. He got his face painted, went through the spook alley, tossed some bean bags and ate some donuts on a string. It was all in all a great time!

Our little "Mr. Incredible" or "The Dash" take your pick!

TIme Out For Women

Here are Jill and I at Time Out for Women. It was really fun and it was great to see Jill again. The speakers were REALLY good and fun, and I learned a lot about how to be a better wife and mother, which is always important! Anyway, it was great and I hope to go again next year!

My Celeb Look Alikes! (yeah right! )

On A Personal Note...

So to get a little personal for moment, I am happy to report that I have dropped 1 pant size/dress size in the last three weeks! YIPPY! I am really happy because I can now fit into some clothes that I haven't been able to wear since before Thatcher was born! So, everyone asks how I am losing weight, and for those of you who knew me on the mission you won't be surprised to know that I am off carbs...it just really works for me. Yay for loosing baby weight!

TIme Out For Women

This Saturday I am going to Time out for Women and I am really excited! I have had this planned ever since I found out there was a Time Out held in Phoenix probably about six months ago! I am leaving early early Saturday morning to drive to Phoenix and then I am going with my good friend Jill Holyoak (Carter) who was my MTC companion. It should be a really fun day and I am excited!

Fiesta!

On Saturday our Stake had their annual "Fiesta". It is a huge event and they provide food for everyone along with jumping castles, a dunking tank, lots of sports and a huge sand pit for toddlers. It was a really fun time and the weather is absolutly beautiful right now in Tucson and so we really enjoyed ourselves!

Thatcher absolutly LOVES jumping castles. There was one at the Fiesta and he didn't want to get out!

Getting his balance...

This is Thatcher's little friend Lacey. They have become best buddies over the last little while, infact Lacey went on vacation to Utah for two weeks and when Thatcher saw her again he smiled really big and ran over to her! It was really cute! Their favorite game to play is chasing one another around. They also love to give hugs, as you can see!

First Smile!

Todd caught one of Taggart's first REAL smiles on camera last night! Isn't he cute! He has been smiling and cooing a lot lately. It is really fun.

Surprise!

I went out of the room for a minute and came back to find Thatcher sitting next to Taggart eating an APPLE! He must of quickly sneaked it out of the fridge when I wasn't looking! I laughed so hard!

Going to Church!

This past Sunday was the first time that Taggart went to church! He did really well. Thatcher is now in nursery and he LOVES it. As soon as I take him to the door he lets go of my hand is off!
