Trick or Treat

Here are our little spooks on Halloween! Wyatt was a ninja, and TyLynn and Lacey were witches. Only TyLynn, Wyatt, and Lacey went trick-or-treating, but the older girls dressed up to hand out candy and then they had a party to attend.

WICKED!!

We had a sisters extended weekend this past week. Kyle (Shane's wife) invited us all out to Denver to go to the Broadway show "wicked" It was awesome!!! I would highly recommend it to anyone. We were all there, except Suzette.
Here are 4 of my cute sisters after seeing the movie "Stepfather", which was a stupid movie, but we had the theatre to ourselves so we had fun!

Here we are eating Pizza. The man who took the picture obviously didn't have a steady hand.

This is Stacy after she just tried to pass all her liquids through security. It worked in Salt Lake on the flight out, so she decided to try it again. They made her pick and choose what would fit in her baggie and confinscated her hair freeze and bottle of milk. Then she forgot her boarding pass at the security checkpoint. She is a true blonde, but we love her.

Here are all of us at the airport. Our flight was delayed so we spent 2 1/2 hours waiting at the Denver airport.

It was a wonderful weekend and we had a blast being together. I have the best sisters EVER!!

Bunko

I hosted bunko at my house this month. Everyone dressed up for Halloween. We had a great time!

The Big 15!

Marissa turned 15 on Sunday! I can't believe my baby is 15. It seems like just yesterday the doctor was announcing "IT'S A GIRL". When I called my mom to tell her we had a girl, her first words were, "Think of all the prom dresses you'll be buying!" At the time it sounded so far off, but now it's only a year away.
Since we tried for so many years to have children, when we found out I was pregnant with Marissa, it was one of the happiest days in my life. She was such a good baby, sleeping through the night starting at 2 weeks old. At one month old, she spent 10 days in Kanosh with my mom while I had my gall bladder out and other complications. She was the first grandchild so everyone spoiled her.
15 years later, she is as beautiful as ever, both inside and out! She has a strong testimony of the gospel. She is a wonderful example to her younger sisters and brother. She is a great friend and has a magnetic personality. She has a great sense of humor and is always saying things to make everyone laugh. We rely on her a lot and we appreciate her tremendously.
She is looking forward to receiving her learners permit soon, so we will let you know when the streets and sidewalks are not safe.
We love you Marissa!!!
