Twilight Movie Tonight!

The movie was awesome! We loved it. What did everyone else think??



I had to take a little cat nap before the movie or I would never make it the next morning at work. Katelyn and Jeremy played Guitar Hero all night to stay awake!






Jeremy, Katelyn and I are going to the midnight showing of Twilight tonight (Tianna and Gavin are having a sleepover with Grandma Isaac)! We are so excited we can't wait. Katelyn and I are going to wear our Twilight shirts in support of "Team Edward". Jeremy is worried that he will be the only dude at the show. I told him he is probably right, but who cares! I am excited to see all the crazy fans. I will definately take my camera tonight and post some pictures of what I'm sure will be a crazy crowd!

Girls Night Out!



Last night my mom took me and my two sisters to the Carrie Underwood Concert. I love Carrie and her concert was awesome! I don't get to spend too much time with my sisters because of our different schedules and hectic lives so it was fun to spend a night out with them. Before the concert we all went to Costa Vida for dinner, yum! Thanks for the fun night, love you guys!

Fun idea for Family Home Evening





This past weekend I was looking through the Friend for a fun activity that we could do for family night on Monday. I found this cute idea for making "Testimony Gloves". You start out by talking about how gloves serve several purposes and are a protection for our hand. Each finger represents a part of your testimony (Book of Mormon, President Monson, Joseph Smith, Jesus Christ and Church is true). The kids had a lot of fun and it actually kept their attention the whole time (which was a first)! So I wanted to share the idea with you to try with your families.

Happy Birthday Katelyn!

Today is Katelyn's 12th birthday. I can't believe she will be in Young Womens now. Her first Beehive activity is tomorrow night. She is pretty excited. She was literally the last one in her primary class so she was counting down the days. Katelyn got a "Twilight" birthday, including an Edward T-shit, Twilight poster, Twilight soundtrack, and movie tickets to the midnight show (it's a school night so I hesitated, but thought what the heck)she deserves a night out with just mom and dad. When her grandparents asked what she wanted for her birthday, my response was anything Twilight related. Unfortanely, Katelyn is sicker than a dog today. She has a nasty chest cold and is just miserable, poor thing. We love you Katelyn! It has been a wonderful 12 years.

Trick or Treating

Here are some pictures of the kids before we went out trick or treating. Katelyn wanted to stay and pass out the candy this year so Jer and I took Tianna & Gavin. Of course the kids had a good time and got lots of candy.

Pumpkin Carving



We have been promising the kids that we would carve pumpkins this year, so tonight we finally did it! Man they are a lot of work. It took us(daddy)two hours to do three pumpkins! The kids loved getting their hands in the pumpkin guts and picking out the seeds for grandma Isaac to roast.

Dedicated to my wonderful husband!

As I mentioned in an earlier post Jeremy was laid off 3 weeks ago from eBay. It has been very hard on him and with the turmoil in the market lately, he often wonders if he will ever find any kind of employment...so I want to share with him a quote that I read today.

This is from President Hinckley:

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It will all work out. If you do your best, it will all work out. Put your trust in God and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us,...if we put our trust in Him, if we pray to Him, if we live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

Hang in there! We love you!
