Number 27!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was better than Christmas at our house tonight!! The YANKEES won their 27th Worlds Series Championship.  Garrett, the kids and I  were jumping up and down and bouncing off the walls.  It was so fun.  I got the monkey off my back too.  The Yankees have not won since we have been married so Garrett told me I was the curse :)  So now there is no curse and Garrett thinks Camden is his good luck charm!!  Yeah!! Go Yanks!!!

Garrett and I went down to Anaheim for 2 games of the ALCS and it was amazing to be there in the playoff atmosphere.






Ken works for Garrett and was in town and stopped by to watch the game.

Duane was also in town, who lives in SLC and used to work with Gar at Zions.  He stopped by as well to watch the game!







We ate dinner at PF Changs in Newport Beach and sat next to AJ Burnette on the Yankees.  We got his autograph and he was so nice and took a picture with us.

Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween!!  We had a great Halloween this year.  Kennedy was a witch (and she has already started terrible twos so this costume fits her perfectly right now :) Dallin was Wolverine and Camden was Tigger.  We had fun, our ward trunk-or-treat was freezing.  It has been 80 degrees in Las Vegas and for the ward party it dropped down to the 5o's.  So for us that was cold.  We also went trick-or-treating at Town Square (an outdoor mall).  The kids did not care much for that and wanted to go home so we did.  On Halloween neither of my kids were happy with their costumes.  Dallin wanted to the The Thing from the Fantastic 4 and Kennedy wanted to be a Kitty Cat.  So needless to say we had major meltdowns.  I did not change their costumes 5 minutes before we were headed out the door.








Dallin could not wear his mask at the church so Gar did his hair like wolverine.  Kennedy insisted on wearing her sunglasses and she did not take them off the whole time.



Dani came down for the weekend.  It was so much fun.  We carved pumpkins on Friday night and on Saturday we went trick-or-treating and watched the Yankees.  The kids love aunt Dani.  She spoils them and me, I love having an extra pair of hands around.














Dallin and Kennedy just kept saying "Oooooh" while carving their pumpkins so I got it on camera.







Garrett and Dallins Fantastic 4 pumpkin.




Dani's Vampire pumpkin


Our finished products with lights and all.  Gar even brought a carved Toyota symbol pumpkin home from work.  It was pretty cool how they did that.



Kennedy wore her cat ears around on the back of her head on Halloween.  It was either that or giant tears so she wore the ears.



She did pose nice for this picture.



Dallin is always a good smiler for the camera.
