Thanksgiving Family Dinner!

Our Family Thanksgiving dinner was very good. We all gathered at my parents house and had dinner and where able to chat, play some boardgames and watch a movie. The food was very yummy just like every year. This year I am very thankful for everything that I have. For a warm nice home, clothes, cars, work, my kids and husband and my immediate family. This year it has been tough for alot of people and families around our community. I hope and pray that we as a family can continue to be doing okay. And to always trust in the Lord, that without his help we don't have nowhere to turn to.

Sorry, but I always forget my camera at these family gatherings so there are no pictures.

The New Moon Movie

Last night Jorge and I went to see New Moon.The movie was very good with great computer effects. I really liked this one better than the first one for the reason that the story was very well told and because it did not jump from one part to the other. The first director of the "Twilight" jumped alot during the movie and missed a couple of key things from the movie. For example she never mentioned Bellas Job at the sporting goods store. Anyway the wolfs were amazing and huge, I think they did a great job to portray the strengh, and the power that the wolfs have. I am really excited for the next movie to come out which will be next year around summer. There is so much to tell but little time. I hope you can all have the chance to see it.

Halloween Parade

Today Kaylee had a Halloween parade at school and Braden had a Halloween party at his preschool. They both wore their costumes today almost for the whole day. That means that I need to wash braden's costume so that he can have clean pants and shirt for Trick or treating. They had alot of fun today at their different activities.

Jack-o-Lanterns

Yesterday we carved our pumpkins for Halloween. We had smaller pumpkins this year and only one big one. So I carved the big one and the kids each carved a small one. I ended up doing braden's but Kaylee carved her pumpkin all by herself and she did a really good job.

Black Island Farms Fieldtrip

Today Braden had a fieldtrip with his preschool to "Black Island Farms". Its a farm that is about 2 blocks away from where we live. They do hayrides, and have a park with big hay slides, cow train, and corn mazes for little kids as well as big kids. We had alot of fun today.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies

About 3 weeks ago, a friend gave me a recipe for these delicous cookies. I made them with the kids and we had fun. They turned out very good. It is worthy of repeating again before winter comes.

Family Photo Shoot

Last Saturday October 10th we had a Photo shoot with Matt Peterson. He is a member of our ward and has a new photography business. He is an excellent photographer and from the pictures that he let us see at the photo shoot, he did an amazing job. The location was in Historical 25th street in Ogden, Ut. The building was an old space that was being remodeled and it had wood floors and a huge brick wall that was used as our background. The lighting was natural from the sun and it came through the big windows infront of the building. The props where old wooden crates and a chair. We wore brown colors. I can't wait till we get the pictures back and we can start printing them and make our christmas cards for this year. For once we will have some proffesional photos for the cards.
