HaPpy HaLLoWeeN






Grandma Cheryl got Logan his adoreable Zebra costume- I love the padded tummy and the little tail. Logan did so good going to the first few houses he even said "tick or teat" no R's yet, a few houses had some scary decorations so Logan would no longer walk to them he wanted to be held. So we went to get some goodies from Grandma Christie up the street and then we headed home. Caden Brooksby his twin zebra came over so we couldn't resist getting a picture of the two-they even had matching candy bags.

Last minute Pumpkin Patch




So we should have gotten pumpkins earlier because there are not many to choose from a few days before HallOwEen. Although Logan still loved it and had fun with his buddy Talyn (Corey and Rachelle's son).

Pumpkin Festival




We took Logan to Thanksgiving Point's Pumpkin Festival and he went crazy. They had giant things to jump on, mazes, animals and rides. His favorite thing was the pig races- he got so excited when they started running around.

I can SEE!!!

So last Thursday I went into the eye doctor and 12 minutes later my vision was fixed. I can not believe how amazing and advanced technology has become. I got glasses in 6th grade to help with seeing the board and such and my eyes didn't get much worse until I hit college. So for Mother's Day a year a half ago Paul gave me the Lasik "coupon" (meaning go and get it done) and of course I got so busy I put if off. Until now...I went in on Tuesday for a consultation and Thursday I got my eyes fixed. They gave me numbing drops, had me look at a light, my vision went black, they created a flap on the front of my eye, flattened my cornea and then they were done. I am so thrilled. I went to Davis Vision Center in South Jordan-Dr. Davis has done over 18,000 procedures, see if you can follow this...he does 8 to 20 procedures each Thursday each one taking 10-15 minutes, at $2,000 to $5,000 a procedure-yeah I would recommend becoming an eye doctor.

Nite out with the Girls


Whats better than eating, chatting and watching dance productions with your girlfriends...not much. It was a fun evening. The Odessey dance group does such an amazing job in every production they put on-we saw Thriller and it is so well done. I walked away missing dance more than ever and am so inspired to take a class. Rachelle, Teigan and I went together and ran into Rania-too fun!

The Jazz are Back




I can not believe its pre-season already-it snuck up on us. So we thought it would be a great time to see if Logan can sit through a basketball game...and the answer would be "no." He would rather hang out in the souvenir shops and throw basketballs around. We have season tickets with our friends Corey and Rachelle Bruse-its a blast. And our old next door neighbors the Monsens are just one section over from us-so I brought Logan over and he was entertained for a few minutes.

So the highlight of the game was not on the court but rather in my section. Logan started going up the stairs (where Paul was) and went I to grab him and my shoe got caught and I fell over a chair, the chair unfolded, I rolled off the chair into the aisle and I seemed to keep going in slow mo. I totally biffed it! and I have a huge bruise to prove it.

A San Francisco Treat






Back in June we had received 4 SF Giants tickets from a company we do work with so we had planned to meet up with Todd and Britt in San Fran. The Giants were going to be playing the San Diego Padres so we knew Todd and Britt would be game. But we had never planned on having so many vacations between June and September so by the time we got to San Francisco we were vactioned out. But we still had a great time doing the tourist-ee things the first few days...Golden Gate Bridge, Union Square (Logan loved the disney store), Fisherman's Warf, Ghardelli Square, MaMa's, the curvey street, we rode the BART and went to the Giants game where Todd caught a foul ball and the Padres won in the last inning. I even got to meet up with Meagan Becker one of my buds from Freshmen year at BYU and her adoreable daughter Ella. The last few days were during the work week so Paul and I got stuck on our phones again. Sorry Todd and Britt!!! We still loved hanging out with you.
