Update

A lot of you have been asking about what are plans are when Caleb is done with school and decisions have finally been made so I thought I would give you all an update. We have decided to move out to Oregon so that Caleb can work with his dad at Liberty Tax. Caleb will be leaving the day after Christmas, but I will be staying through my brothers visit and leaving at the beginning of January and driving the girls out with my mom. After the tax season Caleb will just apply for accounting jobs until we can get a few more tax stores. It is sort of scary moving into the unknown, but it is what Caleb wants to do and he is excited about it and I know he will be great at it.

Fall Fun!

I finally got out and took pictures of the kids in the leaves. Before I realized it I had taken over a hundred pictures (most of which have been deleted) here are some of the best. I love digital! Pondering the great wonders of the world.

Cute!

Perfect timing

Megan was sort of confused by the whole process and ate more leaves than I would have liked while I wasn't paying attention.

Chillin in the leaves.

Halloween!!

Since Alyssa can't use knives and is afraid of pumpkin guts, she painted her pumpkin and I think that it is a work of art!

Megan's aunt Laura bought her a peanut costume for halloween I think that it is really cute, but Caleb said she looks like a giant turd! Rude!

It was sort of hard to get a good picture of her in the costume, but here is the best I could do.

Alyssa went trick or treating for a little bit with her friend Natalie who was a fairy.Alyssa was a beautiful princess and dispite what this picture shows she was really excited about her costume, but I just couldn't get her to smile for the pictures.

A star is born!

Bath Time

So inorder to save time I give the two kiddies baths at the same time and Megan LOVES the tub. If she is fussy, I put her in and she is all smiles and sucking fingers. Mommies big helper!

Comfy Cozy.
Then Alyssa stretches out and lays down in the water and sings to herself while I get megan dressed.

Tagged!

I was tagged forever ago by Kjirstin and I have finally gotten around to doing it. You are suppose to go to your picture folder and pick the 6th folder, then the 6th subfolder and choose the 6th picture and post it and then tag 6 people.

Since I am soo cool, all of my picture are of Alyssa, and now some are of megan, so this is a picture of Alyssa with her grandma right before we left Oregon in March. Alyssa was not very happy that day.

Now I tag...Sian, Becky, Derry, Chelsea, and Michele. (I don't have that many friends in blog land).

Zoo trip

My mom and I decided to flee Provo during the BYU game so we would avoid the traffic and chaos that occurs and we went to the zoo! It was really fun, and cold. It was probably too cold for Megan, but she survived. Since it was cold there were hardly any people there so I went a little overboard with the pictures, but the other times we went I didn't get any pictures because it was hard enough just to keep track of her in the crowd. Also since it was cold, the animals were really active because when it is hot they just lay around.
Most of the pictures I got were of the back of Alyssa's head as she looked at the animals, oh well.
She got the most excited about this desert cat which looked exactly like a house cat which we could have seen for free at a friends house.
I was kind of afraid that the next Harry Potter was around and the glass in the snake cage would disapear, but we braved it anyway!
Alyssa knew what zebras were, I was sort of impressed because I would have thought she would call them horses.
Wandering around the zoo.

Zoo Trip, part two

My girls!!
Alyssa's favorite question now is 'what is that?' and needless to say we heard that a lot at the zoo and there was a lot of pointing involved. I'm also growing out her bangs and I think she looks really cute without them, but I am a little biased.
I like the composition in this one, so I thought I would add it in.
There was a carousel that we rode three times because there was no line, Alyssa loved it, and Grandma was paying!
Megan was not as amused at the zoo as Alyssa was, being really cold didn't help her at all.
