Happy Halloween!

I look forward to the fall all year because we absolutely love doing this together as a family. We have a tradition like many others to go pumpkin picking. We have a cute one near us that has a hay maze for the kids to run through, it is cute to watch them.

Our cute little Morgan just hanging out being the good child! Daddy and the kids! Yes, Katelyn is sticking her tongue out, little stinker!
Me and my little buddies!

This is NOT my favorite activity so I tried to make Jason do as much as possible, although I did have to do two pumpkins this year.

Our little family of pumpkins. You can't really see this, but the pumpkin 2nd from the right is supposed to be Morgan, it has a little curly cue for the hair. Too cute, Jason did it! What a creative husband I have.

Our little Thomas the Engine! Henry is absolutely fascinated with Thomas,

so this fit him perfectly.

Katelyn and a couple of her friends in their costumes!

Me and my adorable little witch that wouldn't keep her hat on for any pictures!

My sisters family spent Halloween with us and I made them some yummy Halloween shaped noodles. I think that I was more excited then the kids were.

Claire and Morgan seem to be enjoying their noodles!

What a scary bunch, getting ready to head out for some candy!

Theirs my cute little witch with her hat on for once!

Grandma Folsoms Funeral!

Carol Jean Montague Folsom (Grandma holding Katelyn in April 2004)

My dear sweet Grandma passed away on October 17, 2009 in American Fork, UT.

She was the best woman ever, and would give the shirt off her back for anyone. She was the best wife to my Grandpa, the best mother to my father, and the best Grandma to her grandkids. She was everyones best friend!
In a previous post I explained that my Grandma has had lung cancer for the past two years! She has been off and on with her treatments and so we have been able to spend a lot of time with her and go down to Utah Co. to visit. I was able to grow up in the same little town in Canada with her and it was so wonderful to have all my grandparents live so close and be able to spend so much time with them, yes I felt spoiled. It was very hard to see my Grandma get so sick near the end. We all loved her so much and were just praying to let her go because she didn't deserve to be in pain. It was so amazing to spend some time with all my family(Grandpa, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, etc.) before and after the funeral. What a wonderful bonding experience. I'm so glad to have been able to say goodbye to her before she passed away(or rather, see ya later). I have never felt the spirit so strong as when she was lying there in her last few minutes. What a wonderful feeling! We will miss her tons!
They had the funeral for Grandma in Utah Co. because all our family was able to make it down here and she is from Payson, UT so her siblings were all down here. But they did the burial and another little service up in Canada and I really felt like I needed to be there so Jason wanted to stay home with Henry and Morgan(didn't sound like fun hauling them 12hrs in a car and then back 12hrs a couple days later) for the weekend and he let Katelyn and I go up with my brother and his wife. Katelyn was soooo excited to go up to Canada for a girls trip. She got to see Grandpas cows and ride on the 4-wheelers, hot tubing, and stay up really late. She had a lot of fun.

Our little family and my cute Grandpa Folsom!

What a handsome guy I snagged, too bad it's my own dad!

My lovely Aunts and Uncles, and Grandpa!

Another guy I snagged, my Uncle that I rarely ever get to see!

Our little Man!

I know it has been forever since I've updated my blog. We have been so incredibly busy with tons of things going on.

To start out, we have been busy with the first part of the soccer season for the kids. Henry started playing in the tiny tots league. He looks very cute and innocent in this picture, but he is fooling you because he wasn't not so happy to be out on the soccer field. He plays great at home and then you put him on a big field and fear overcomes the little guy. He did actually kick/touch the ball a couple times throughout the season though! What a milestone it was! Now that he has started preschool and doing more, maybe he will be a little less scared in the spring when they start up again. It was fun to watch him try!

He gets to play with some of his friends from the neighborhood so that is nice for him to know his teammates. What a crazy bunch of hooligans!
Henry got to go to the 'firestation' for a preschool field trip. He loves firetrucks but was a bit taken back with the big one he got to see. He loved it though!

Morgan likes to go on field trips too! She is one of the big kids now!
