Cameron's Fall Concert

Cam performed in the Fall Concert with the band---actually playing some songs and
"faking" some others---he wasn't even sure which were which !!!

Halloween Party @ Erika's school !

We took Carter & Rylee to Erika's school for a Halloween party she was helping with on Saturday. There were tons of fun activities for the kids, but Rylee's favorite was simply climbing up onto chairs, and picking up and then throwing the small pumpkins---Carter's favorite was "driving" the arcade race car type of game that was in the room. They both LOVED the sugar cookies though !
Me, MINNIE & MICKEY !!!


Minnie & the Parrot (Erika)

I did it !

I may not have THE cutest blog on the block, but it has definately improved. I didn't do a thing differently than before, but decided to try again today and go very s-l-o-w-l-y this time and it worked on the first try. I can always blame it on my computer, right !?!?! grrrrr ! BUT yeahhh!!!

Our latest family NEWS is that Ryan got a new job with the Church (of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) that he starts next week in the Audio Visual department--we are very excited for this change for them and their cute little family ! Carter turned 3 last Saturday--crazy !!!

Jen and the kids will be coming in Nov. for an "extended" visit, while Todd does some "extended" training out of state ! His eyes continue to heal well, and you will not see him wearing glasses anymore ! Kayla has her first two teeth (going on 4 and counting) and is sitting up now, but still would "rather not" roll over much, and so continues her physical therapy for her neck muscle issue--doing well--see their blog for more details & pictures.

Cam treated us all to M & M's this week !?!?

Happy Birthday to our Gpa. Lloyd . . .

When we went to place these flowers on Gpa's grave on Thurs., for his upcoming birthday on Sun. Oct. 5, we were surprised to find his marker in place--it looks beautiful. We miss you and we love you, Grandpa !

Todd's airplane assignment !

Todd & Jen have finally recieved their plane assignment ! Todd will be flying the
F-15E !!! They are very excited to know what the future holds for them, and also that he actually got his 1st choice !!!They will go to North Carolina for training and then either stay there or go to England or Idaho.

Cutest Blog on the Block---NOT !!!

Hey all you "bloggers" ! I am very frustrated at NOT having the Cutest Blog on the Block---goodness knows I have tried--several times !!! I cannot get that thing to work for me and this is quite embarrassing for someone who likes to think they are a little "Technology Savy" !?!?!? Anyone have any tips/tech support for me ???
