My new hobby!

I recently learned how to make these and am having so much fun making them. They are so cute and you can make them to match any outfit.They are watch band bracelets and I love them.I never liked wearing a watch,cause I thought it looked so plain.But I love these!They are multi-purpose,for time and a cute bracelet!

Noah is "8"!!

This is a birthday Noah has anticipated for a while,like since his older brother turned 8, 2 1/2 years ago. When he saw what you get to do when your "8"...getting baptized,Scouts.I am so glad it is finally here so he can experience these awesome experiences he has waited to experience for so long. I was at his school yesterday on his birthday to bring his baby book to show the class and bring some cookies to share with the class.Its a special thing you get to do on your birthday in his class.You can have your Mom or Dad bring in some pictures of you when you were a baby and tell about when you were born.You also can bring in a special treat for the class.The class also gets to ask you any questions they want about you.So one of the questions was"What is your favorite thing about turning "8" is?" Noah quickly replied "getting baptized".Proud Mommy moment number 1.The second proud Mommy moment was with another question "What is your favorite thing to do?"Playing video games and spending time with my Mommy.
Noah is such a special kid.He is full of life.He cares for people deeply.He cares how people feel.I am so proud of the kind of person Noah is.I hope he always feels how much he is truely loved by those that surround him.
Noah I hope you had an AWESOME birthday and I hope you love being "8"!

Great Savings website..

www.Freebies2deals.com is such a awesome website! I found out out her website on Good Things Utah. She is a recently stay at home Mom who loves bargain shopping.So she does all the work and then posts it on her blog and if you sign up she can send you daily deals.One example is I bought Disneys "Up for blu ray and dvd normally($19.99)the first week. Well she posted a printable $10.00 off coupon.So I got mine for 9.99. Plus she posted rebates for "up". So once I send mine in I will get $8 back. So total for the "Up" Dvd and blue ray is $2!!! Check it out!!

Halloween!!

We sure had a fun Halloween!It was also the first time since I have been married that I dressed up!Probably as the most popular costume for this year...A vampire!
It was sure fun dressing up and I think the kids really like that James and I dressed up this year.James dressing up as a 50's hot guy!I think next year we will do better with the costumes since the decision was the day before Halloween that I was gonna dress up and James decide a couple hours before we went trick or treating.
We had a lot of fun trick or treating with our good friends the Larsons. Afterward we came back to our house and drank some delicious apple cider that was brewing during our trick or treating excursion.We also ate homemade roasted pumpkin seeds and homemade carmel corn that my Mom made for us and ofcourse delicious candy we got trick or treating!=) We had fun carving pumpkins as well 2 days before Halloween.Caston and Noah carved their own pumpkins front and back ,side to side.Caston helped Maddie carve her pumpkin and Daddy carved his and Van's pumpkin which were Spongebob and Patrick. James took his pumpkin(Spongebob) to his work and entered it into the pumpkin carving contest and won first prize!!!We hope all of you had as much fun as we did for Halloween!
