Happy Halloween!

The Real Housewives had a fun night with our friends and families! We started with a potluck chili dinner, visiting, decorating pumpkins, and when the kids started to get restless, we were off to trick or treat around the neighborhood. Then we met afterwards for dessert....and lots and lots of candy!

The ScArIeSt part of the whole night was having all of our kids together....and on a sugar high! Happy Halloween!

More Fall Break Fun






We have been busy this past week with all of the fun fall playdates. Here are a few more pics of the kids at the library and the pumpkin patch. What a blast!

It's A Girl!!!



Today, Camille had her "determine-the-sex-ultrasound," and she's having a GIRL!! Well, that's what her doctor thinks anyway...so until she hears otherwise, we're celebrating with lots of PINK! (And this baby girl's gonna need it with 3 big brothers at home!)


We started the party a little late-we've found that we get a little less complaining from our hubbies if we go out after we've gotten the kiddos in bed. So we got in comfy clothes, ate our favorite munchies, drank some "fancy pink drinks," sat in the Jacuzzi, and visited till 1:30 in the morning! It was a lot of fun! Camille, we are all so excited about this little girl! Congratulations!!

Pumpkin Patch




Fall Break is here, so we've planned a bunch of Girls Days + the Kids. Always entertaining, and wild, but just as fun. Today we went to Mother Nature's pumpkin patch. We had a blast. The bounce house was a bit chaotic, but the kids really enjoyed picking out pumpkins, running through the hay maze and the tractor ride. Thanks again to Debi, Brit, Jana, Alyssa, Emily and Camille. We had lots of fun!

Yummy Food, Depressing Movie


Ok so for our latest GNO we went to Ruby Tuesday's for dinner (yummy, love the fries) and then saw the saddest movie ever, "Nights in Rodanthe". Having read the book and also loving "The Notebook" I assumed it would be great and much to my chagrin I suggested we go. So we did, and cried, then cried some more, then sat in silence, then cried again. Ok sorry ladies, my bad, but between all of us emotional ladies, this was too much for me!

Pizza 'n' Sundaes

Tonight was another fun GNO+the kiddos. We got together at Merri's house for Pizzza and Sundaes while the men attended Priesthood Session of General Conference. We all had a great time, especially kiddos. Although I don't understand how we always seem to forget just how many kiddos we have, when we put them all together. I think that I counted a total of 19 tonight.... whew. Thanks again Merri for another fun and delicious night.























After the kids were done with their pizza they were all begging for ice cream. We told them all to wait out back for us to bring it to them and this is what they did. Poor kids look like they haven't eaten in days!!





















Ahhh! All better, now that they all have their cones.



















Thanks again "Sister Miller the singing teacher" for the rousing rendition of "Do as I'm Doing." unfortunately for you, this is the best picture that I took :o) Seriously though, how sweet was that, the minute that you started to sing, they all sang right along with you and stopped whatever else they were doing.


Oh, and last but not least, I had to add this sweet picture of little Rylee in her newly decorated nursery (you are so talented Nicole) and color coordinated, matching onesie.
