Pumpkin Patch


Fall is my favorite time of year. Its the time when the leaves start changing colors, the air gets cooler and the Holidays begin! We went to the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday with my mom and little sisters. I haven't been since I was a little kid so it was good to be able to go back and think back on old memories. Its weird to think that the days are just around the corner when Jake and I will be there with our kids. We both still act like we are kids most of the time so its funny to look around and see everyone there with their little kids and Jake and I are there with ourselves and dragged our sisters to come with us so we didn't look like immature dorks. But it was alot of fun. Jake and I picked out our pumpkins and on Thursday night we are carving them with my family. My mom saw something on Good Things Utah where you can carve pumpkins with power tools so we are going to give it a try! I have been really sick all weekend so we had a pretty slow weekend but it was very relaxing and well needed. I am now feeling a million times better!

Caleb


Caleb and Morgan

Sunday Chris and Jill brought Caleb over. This week was exactly two years since i told them they were going to be Caleb's parents. I cant believe how much he has grown up. He is just around the corner from 2 and he already has no baby in him. He has full on conversations, knows all of his animal noises. He does the cutest thing if you say Caleb what does a lizard say he sticks his tongue out. I cant believe what a little soccer player he has begun. You can obviously tell Chris wants to be able to show off his boy in the field. He plays catch perfectly and kicks the ball like you wouldn't believe. I look at Caleb and I see how much he has grown. They are such a cute perfect family. He is so happy with his parents and they are so perfect for them. They are all so happy It makes it that much easier for me. Some people think i am crazy to still have an open adoption with them but it honestly is the best choice i have ever made and being able to see them makes it so much easier for me! I can't wait for the day to come when Jake and I are ready to start our family, its crazy because Caleb makes me want to have a family! He was such a miracle that saved my life. Everyday I thank my heavenly father for bringing him to me!!
Holy Cow how is he so cute??

Of course we went to the Ute game and watched them dominate Colorado State. Here are some of the pictures it was the first Utah game our whole family was able to go together we had a blast! It was also Paiges 9th birthday so we had to celebrate!
The girls were a little caught off guard!

Eagle Eye

Yesterday I had the day off which i cant decide if its a good thing. I love it but for some reason i keep finding myself spending tons of money! We bought our first washer and dryer! I never thought the day would come that I would be spending money on cleaning supplies food, and washer/ dryers instead of clothes or whatever i felt like. Its definately a change and its amazing how expensive everything is but they are awesome and work like a charm. It will be so nice being able to do laundry through out the week instead of all in one day trying to get it all done!



Friday Jake and I went and saw Eagle Eye. We both have been wanting to see it since it came out I love Shia LaBeouf I think he is such a great actor. It was really good and we were both entertained but i dont know if i would reccommend it the ending wasnt good at all. It seemed like they werent sure how it was going to end so they just decided to throw in a ending!

Jakes Birthday

Friday we went to Nightmare on 13th with some friends. It was really fun to get together with friends. Jake and I both have a hard time getting scared over that kind of stuff but it definitely was fun to get out and celebrate the Halloween Holiday. I do have to admit there were somethings that bother me like clowns and chain saws. I'm really big on personal space. Again i did the dumbest thing, my battery was dead on my camera so i took it out to charge it and went to take pics and found out i forgot to put it back in so i didn't get to take pictures of the graphics but it was pretty incredible. 

Saturday was Jakes 23rd Birthday. We went four wheeling again but this time it was a different story because it had been raining for two days so the dirt was the thickest clay ever. We had a blast though i dont think i have been that dirty for a long time. It took us about 3 hours to get everything clean and then we had cake and Ice cream with my family and then tonight we had Jakes family come over to celebrate.
 


I just wanted to let Jake know how much i love him and tell him Happy Birthday. This was the first birthday i was able to spend with him and hope it was special for him. I game him a JVC HDD camcorder for his birthday so now we will remember our memories forever.

Ute Game

Thursday we went to the Utah Oregon game. I can not believe what a great game that was. I think we went through every emotion of hating our team and then loving them. At one point i could have sworn my dad was going to have a heart attack but by the last couple of minutes of the game the Utes came through and beat Oregon. We after were able to rush the field and sing the school song with the players it was great. Unfortunately i forgot my phone and camera and couldn't take pictures. But we love the Utes and are excited for the rest of the season.
