A WORLD OF IMAGINATION

Hayden wanted me to play with him this morning so I told him I would. When I went in his room to play I couldn't resist taking pictures. He was wearing Brandon's safety glasses from work with his beanie underneath them and he told me that he was going to work and he wanted me to go with him. So he made me pretend like I was getting in his little truck and he drove us to work making sound effects as we were driving. Then we proceeded with our day at work. When we were done at work he drove us home. He told me on our way home we were going duck hunting with Papa Chris. We got our guns and went duck hunting. He got his little mallard and stood up on his bed pretending it was flying then yelled shoot it mom shoot it. Well when I tried shooting it he told me I didn't make the sound. So i had to make the bang bang sound. I was laughing so hard. He dropped the mallard on the ground and said good job you got it Mom. Wow what an imagination he has! (Alyssa felt bad and wanted me to take a picture of her too.)

HALLOWEEN NIGHT!!!!!!

Brandon and I took the kids out to trick-or-treat. We went door to door around our neighborhood and I havn't done that since I was a kid. I always took the kids to Boo Fest in Brigham. So it actually was alot of fun and we saw alot of cute little kids with cute costumes. Hayden was so funny. He was dressed up like a dog and we walked by a house and this dog started barking so Hayden started growling back at him. It was so cute! I think when Alyssa is in her costume she is a totally different girl. I don't know if the costume puts her in disguise, but she is so much more outgoing than normal. Lilly is so good with her brother and sister. She was making sure they all got the same amount of candy at each house. She takes care of them so well. She will be a good mom someday. We also went to Grandma Kim and Papa Steve's house to trick-or-treat and they went around their neighborhood with us. It was alot of fun. Hayden would run to the door and then run back and want Grandma Kim to hold him. Thank You to our friend Marlene for making such a cute Dorothy costume for Lilly. And Thank You to Megan(my sister-in-law) for letting me borrow the dog costume for Hayden. (We had to hurry and get this posted for Grandma Deenie and Papa Chris that hate not being able to see the kids on Halloween the kids miss not seeing them too.)

Halloween Parties

We had a Halloween Party at Grandma and Grandpa Wight's House on Saturday night and we carved pumpkins with Brandon's family on Sunday night. Yes, we did have a busy weekend, but it was a lot of fun. Hayden was really tired at the Wight party and he fell asleep right before we carved pumpkins on Sunday so he was pretty upset that he missed out.

For Halloween Brandon is Mario and I am Princess Peach, Lilly is Dorothy, Alyssa is a frog, and Hayden is a dog.

Woo Hoo! Hannah Montana Concert

Well we went to the Hannah Montana Concert on Friday night and it was a BLAST! When we first found out that Hannah Montana was coming in Concert on Saturday, Oct27th, we tried to get tickets cause Lilly wanted to go so bad, but we just couldn't see paying what they wanted for the tickets so yes Lilly was bummed. All she could talk about was how bad she wanted to see Hannah Montana! So Brandon found out Hannah Montana had decided to also come in concert Friday, Oct 26th to film her 3D movie. So Brandon immediately called me to tell me. We agreed that we needed to get tickets. So Brandon was able to buy 4 tickets to the concert. We surprised Lilly by buying her and Alyssa Hannah Montana outfits and wrapped them for Christmas (obviously they got there Christmas early). So when they opened them Brandon told them that they could wear their new outfits to the Hannah Montana concert that they were going to on Friday and Lilly FREAKED OUT! She was so excited she couldn't stand it. Alyssa was excited too, but not as excited as Lilly. So my mom, Alyssa, Lilly, and I went. We seriously had so much fun. And the concert had a lot of extras because they did film it for Hannah Montana's movie. We had really good seats too so that made it funner for the girls. Lilly was jumping and screaming the whole night. She asked me to stand up and dance with her and when I did she said, "You can sit down now Mom you are embarrasing me". But when she saw the mom dancing behind us she said I'm glad shes not my mom and she told me I could stand up and dance with her again. Wow that made me feel good! But it was an AMAZING concert. Thank you to Brandon who paid for all of us to go and have fun. Him and Hayden had a boys night out.
