This year we spent Halloween with some of our court friends. we started the day off with a trip to officers corner for a little trick or treating. Then we headed home for naps. Later that night we all went back to a friends house for a potluck dinner with just the girls as the men headed off to the football game. We then took all the kids to trick or treating. We had so much fun. It brings tears to my eyes as I think of much I have depended on these ladies over the last two year. They have become more than friends they are family. I know that I can call any of them for help. Life away from the village is going to be a hard adjustment. I feel so blessed to have gotten the chance to get to know such great people. You have help make me into the mom and wife I want to be. You are amazing I love all of you. Thanks so much for a great day.

With Halloween around the corner I have tried to do some fun things with Rylee. We made puppy chow one day with her friend and then made puppets. I also let her sticker up pumpkins and today a friend of mine dropped off a bag of monster parts and we were able to build this cute little monster. She had so much and is loving all our little projects. She is so excited for Halloween this year and all her parties she gets to go to. She is also just like her mother and loves her chocolate. I don't think she is going to share this year.



My little man is growing up so fast. As you can tell I have my hands full. He loves to climb on everything and with him walking now I spend my days chasing him around. But the kid can make any one smile. I love this little boy so much. His looks are priceless.

KAM HAS DECIDED IT IS TIME TO WALK!!!

I am happy to announce that Kam is walking. He is now 13 months old and has had no interest in it until this past week. Now he is walking all over the place and is getting better every day. It is fun to see him walking, but sad cause my little man is growing up so fast. He is also trying to talk more and has learned to scream like his sister. His favorite thing to do is to bug his big sister. He is the biggest tease around. I can not tell you how many times a day I have to tell him to leave his sister alone. With Kam on the go now we sure have our hands full.

The past month has been very hard for myself and my family. With Jon back in school and me being sick most of the time it has been a difficult adjustment for all of us. There has been several days where I hop in the shower to try to hide the crying from Rylee. But I have a very smart three year old and she often comes in the bathroom to tell me every thing is going to be OK. Today while getting my second set IVS I had the chance to spend sometime by my self. The room was quite and the view out side my window was amazing. While I sat and prayed for strength to get through the next few months I was filled with a sense of peace as I felt the love of my heavenly father. My testimony grew as I relised that he was carrying me and would help me get through this. While I wish I could say that things were going to be better from here on out. I now know that I can get through what ever is ahead of me as long as I turn to my loving heavenly father for help. I am so greatful to the Benson family for all there help with Rylee it has given her a chance to go and play and not see me so sick. It makes it easier for me to send her knowing that she is cared for so well over there. I am so greatful for a ward family that cares so much and is always so willing to help. It makes things so much easier. Our life may be crazy right now but I am so greatful for the challenges that we are facing that are only making us stronger.

Its so hard to believe that Kam is a year old. The year has gone by so fast. We had lots of fun at his party. He wanted nothing to do with his cake. However the cake did not go to waste, the cake fight between jon and I and company was tons of fun. Cute little Jovie raddon was hit at the party. Everyone loved her. Could not have asked for a better day. Thanks to everyone that came out celebrate with us.

Kams First Birthday Party
