Always Playing Catch Up....

OK so I'm a lame blogger. I go months and months with nothin' and then I play catch up. You have to admit that I have my best excuse yet. We have been very displaced. We left AZ the middle of June and have basically been living out of suit cases since. The only one who didn't seem to mind at all was little E. She thought it was an open invitation to play dress up all day.


She is such a girly girl. Who would have thought I would have a total princess who loved clothes
and all the accessories she could get her hands on. I have created a little diva monster.

We had a very long summer since Nevada starts school about a month after Paradise does. Dallin started the 3rd grade this year. Crazy. He was a little anxious about going to a new school and he REALLY missed his old friends but he is such a good boy. He put on a smile (except when I asked him to have his picture taken with his teacher). Look at his face. He is thinking, mom I'm not in pre-school your killin me. :) I love him!

An even harder part to my day was finally sending Ryder to Kindergaten. He was SO ready to go! He watched most his friends start last year (he is an August birthday) and was counting down the days! Ryder is so happy and care free. I wish I was more like him :) He calls everyone he meets his friends. I just love him!

Most of his class is made up of ward members. They look so mischievious! He loves going everyday and I love all the enthusiasm he has when he gets home to tell me about his day.
Breckan also started Pre-school with his new teacher and my friend Miss Kim. He thinks Logandale is the best place on earth and has requested a motorcycle and a pocket knife for Christmas. Good Luck Brecky.

Since this is an "all in one" post- here goes halloween. My favorite part about Logandale is it has a great community with wonderful family activities. On Saturday, the parks and rec put together an awsome trunk or treat complete with haunted house, food and games. Ellsie was in heaven after getting her candy, she parked it on the grass and devoured her candy. I see where she also gets her self control from :)

The boys loved the games and rides. Dallin and Breckan got into these giant air bubbles in a pool of water. D says he felt like a hampster! Ryder didn't take to the idea. It was fun though and everything was free.

The kids made it really easy for me this year and all of them wanted to dress up in something we already had. Ellsie just loves anything frilly and pink. We had a great time with lots of parties, candy, and friends.
