9 Years!

Yesterday was our nine year anniversary. WOW... how time flies. I am so thankful to have such a wonderful husband. He is truly my best friend.
The song that is playing (I do, cherish you) I know is sooo old, but it was the song at our wedding when I walked down the isle. And I still love it. The pics describe us well. We like to have fun and just be silly together!

Trick or Treat!

Halloween fun...

Last week was a busy but fun week! Monday we went to the corn maze. The boys had a lot of fun. Slade was our leader and I have to say he did a pretty good job finding our way out. Tuesday was our ward's Halloween party. We had dinner and played carnival games. Slade had his preschool Halloween party on Wed. and dressed up as a boney pirate! Every Halloween the boys love to carve pumpkins. So of course we carved pumpkins! They turned out to be some pretty scary looking pumpkins when they were done!

The grim reaper and a boney pirate!

Maui, HI Oct. 2008

Our trip to Maui was amazing! I took tons of pictures and still don't think I took enough. The scenery there was beautiful. We went on a hike up to a 380 foot waterfall. On the way up there we went through Bamboo that was thick and tall. It was awesome. We went parasailing, snorkeling, deep sea fishing, and to a wonderful Luau. I couldn't believe how clear the water was when we went snorkeling. There was so much stuff to see. We went to a snorkeling spot where there were huge turtles all around. On the fishing trip I was sick the whole time. I can officially say that I've been "sea sick" now. But it was pretty exciting when Joby caught a fish. And of course we spent some time on the beach. One of the best times was when me and Heidi laid out on the beach and watched Joby and Kevin trying to surf...lol. We had such a great trip and I'm hoping we'll get to go back again!

Aloha!! We arrived home from a week vacation in Maui, HI!! I have tons a pictures and all the details I will post soon, but I just have to thank a few people first! My sister, Amber. She got reservations at a hotel in Maui (right on the beach) for us and it was beautiful. All we had to do when we got there was check in. It was awesome! She also tended Slade for the whole week while we were gone. He had so much fun that he told her a couple of times he wanted to live in Eagle Mountain with her. She had activities planned for him to do everyday. And since she has three girls she had one day where she had her neighbors little boy come over and play with him. She even emailed me pictures of Slade one day! I really had no worries while I was gone! It was so nice! She tended Braxton on Thursday and Friday because he didn't have school. Friday she took them to Lagoon and Saturday she brought the boys to the airport to see us when we got off the plane! I'm pretty sure I have the best sister in the world!! Thank you so so much Amber!! I love you!

Also I want to thank my mother-in-law for tending Braxton while we were gone. She got him to school in the mornings and made sure he got his homework done. Thanks! Thanks!

And thanks to my mother and Ashley for taking Braxton up to my sister!

And I need to thank my brother-in-law Jeremy for taking us to the airport at five in the morning so we didnt have to leave our car at the airport! Thanks!
