October!

Tyce hard at work on his pinewood derby car...


I didn't get any pics AT the Pinewood Derby but Tyce had a great time and ended up placing somewhere in the middle.  Parker and I were frustrated because there were quite a few parents cheating (greasing their cars in between races, cheat wheels, etc) which made me so mad.  I could care less if Tyce wins or loses but to make rules and not enforce them...what does that teach the kids?  Seriously people, it's a kids pinewood derby...  But here's Tyce's car, that he did all by himself!
School pics!!!  I actually think they turned out pretty cute...




Josh's favorite time of the year!  School clothes shopping!  I take each of them separately and use it as special one on one time with each of them.  Josh loves clothes, fashion, and shopping so he was in a great mood.  I love when he is chatty because he is so fun to talk to and always makes me laugh.
Every outfit he tried on he had to do all sorts of poses in front of the mirror to make sure he likes it...





Still a little kid at heart...

Success!  He got lots of super cute clothes (I love Josh's style) and was so appreciative.  Throughout the shopping he would randomly thank me and if I ever told him something was too expensive he was like ok!  Love this kid...
He chose Firehouse Subs for dinner!
Then he loves to come home and model all his new clothes for the rest of the family...

3rd annual Girl's Night Out at Gardner Village with my in-laws!



They have a 5k witch run that we decided we are all going to do next year!
Love these second sisters of  mine!!!  We missed Jackie though!
Sweet Luna  has become quite the cuddler, ANYTIME I sit down now she comes and cuddles me...

We had a random hail storm which took a toll on our poor plants...
Rainbow!
Jack's turn to go school clothes shopping!
This kid is so dang tall and skinny it made it SO hard to find pants for him!



Memories with our favorite mannequin at JC Penney (last year we had to undress him to get the pants he had on and the mannequin fell apart, body parts everywhere, Jackson and I were dying laughing)...

"I'm driving like mommy"...no idea what he's talking about  ;)
SUCCESS!!!

He chose Smashburger for dinner...
Halloween table!
I go to put my groceries away and, of course, there's a FOOTBALL where the canned fruit goes!  So my life...
More football pics...








Haha, Sunday was General Conference and it was like 10:15am and the rest of us were all eating pancakes eggs and bacon at the kitchen table while watching conference.  Josh was still asleep.  Then he walks in...all dressed up and ready for church!  Poor kid forgot it was conference and he was NOT happy he got all ready for nothing...
Then he got comfy like the rest of us...
Sunday night=family game night!  We had a VERY intense game of Spoons going on...

Followed my the twins wrestling...


Handsome guys in their new clothes!

Poor Jackson go 4 baby teeth pulled to make room for the adult ones that are coming in...
Dinner with Christine and Tegan!
Tyce's turn for school clothes shopping!  I totally dropped the ball in taking pictures (welcome to life as the 3rd child haha) but we had fun and had some great finds!  He, lucky for my bank account, didn't need much since he has two older brothers worth of hand me downs but he needed pants and I let him pick out a few shirts and sweatshirts too...

Speaking of Tyce, he earned a special night with daddy!  He has been wanting to make the yellow team on swim team (the highest of the three levels) for a few months now and has tried out three times and not made it.  One Friday he came home from practice SO excited because he tried out again and made it!  I was so proud of his perseverance and hard work!  For his special night he chose to go to Papa Murphy's and get cookie dough, 711 to get slurpees, then movie night in the basement.  He loved every minute of it, he is SUCH a daddy's boy!
Matching Under Armour sweats!
Tyce helping daddy put together a nightstand...
Tyce LOATHES potatoes but has really been good at eating them without whining.  We were all laughing on Sunday I made scalloped potatoes and Tyce had three tiny triangles and it took THIS much milk for him to finish them!
Sunday night wrestling!








Phew!  That was a long one!
