Last of the warm days

 Love these 2 so so much!!

Our girls LOVE to be outside!!  Seriously first thing in the morning thay are asking to go play outside.  I am absolutely dreading winter.  How will I keep these to from going stir carzy!!  There favorite thing to do is play on the swings, we play on them for hours on end.  Aspen even fell asleep in then on day, it was so cute.  Koriann loves to go as high as possible and has no fear.  Hears to hoping spring comes fast!!

Halloween!! A little late

 Getting ready for her school halloween carnival.  She is really into haveing her hair curled lately.

 Koriann the "Scary Witch".  She has wanted to be a witch for the last 6 months and we found this adorable costume so we just had to get it.

 Me and my GIRLS!!  Love them to death.

 Koriann has really been into "posey" for the camera lately, some of the things she does just cracks us up.

 Aspen the cute little cow!!  She LOVED wearing her costume and thought the best part was the little tail in the back.  Seriously she is so freaking cute!!

 Heading to the neighbors, Koriann could barely contain her excitement.

 Aspen thinks she can do everything Koriann can and wants no one help doing things.  Seriously how cute are these too?!!  We LOVE them to death.

We had an awesome Halloween this year again.  Koriann started the day off with her canival at school, then we made a spooky dinner and then waited for dad to hurry home to take us Trick-or-Treating.  Koriann was all over it this year.  Aspen even had a good time and actually waved and smiled at one house.  But mainly Aspen just wanted to eat her candy, and Koriann could of cared less about the candy and was all about showing off her costume to house.  Koriann did get scared once, a guy had on a scary mask and Koriann wasn't about to ask for any candy and she just turned around and went to the next house.  It was actually quite funny.  We just went to the cove again and it was awesome, only hitting about 20 house and they filled up there buckets twice.  When we got home Koriann was loving giving out cand to people and every 20 seconds would look out the window for more trick-or-treaters.  It was really cute to see her so excited.  Holidays so much fun with kids around.  Koriann is already looking forward next year.

Rainy Days!!

 "Wrappin' her up like a hot dog"  as Koriann was explaining to me.

 This one cracked me up, but suprisingly Aspen didn't seem to mind and stayed like this for awhile.

 Koriann making the baby stay put! 

We finally recieved some rain this fall and it was awesome.  But on the other hand it sucks trying to keep these two inside and entertained all day LONG!!  Luckily they are pretty good at entertaining themselves.  They found the baby toy mat and seriosly played with this thing for hours.  It was hilarious to see Koriann try and make Aspen lay down and stay on it.  Finally they settled down and both layed on it and watched a movie.

FHE Pumpkins

 Getting ready to start.  Koriann has been so excited for the last month to carve her pumpkin.  She did most of it and was very bossy and instructed us all on what she was going to carve.

 Getting the GUTS out.  Koriann and Aspen LOVED doing this part and everytime Koriann would get a handfuls she wouls say "I have some guts dad!!"  Aspen keep trying to eat everything, we love our good little eater.

 We are cool parents who let our almost 18 month old just have at it with the carving knife, thank goodness they aren't sharp.  She was in heaven just doing her own little thing.

 My awesome drilled out pumpkin that I just love and Zeke made fun of.

 Korianns' pumpkin with a "Happy face that just has to have hearts on it"  her exact words.  We love it.

We had so much fun this year, both girls were really into it and there wasn't any melt downs so we consider it a success.  Koriann is so excited for Halloween and talks about it now stop.  Can't wait until tomorrow for the real thing. 

Aspen's Hats

 

 

This little honey bee LOVES hats!!!  Every morning first thing she finds a hat and just puts it in like it's completely normal.  We think it's the cutest thing ever.  She has no preference for what type of hat or beanie either, just like her daddy.                                                                                                       

 

 

 Seriously the cutest little honey bee EVER!!

My 4 Year old Already!!

 Look at that sass!!  We love your personality and hope you never change it for anyone!!

Koriann my how time has flown!!  It seems like just yesterday we were bringing you home to the little seeps house and now here you are 4 years later independent as ever.  Everyday brings a new experience with you and we love it.  Words can't decsribe how much we love you.  The last year we have seen many changes in you and are so proud of every thing you accomplish.  You are the best big sister and one could ask for.  Aspen looks up to you and loves you so much.  The love and care you freely give to others is amazing, you are still our little cuddle bug and we hope you will always stay that way.  Your smile lights up and room you enter and your golden hair catches every ones attention.  May you never loose your enthusium for life little girl.  At 4 years old some of your favorite things are anything and everything Dora the Explorer, any animal, riding bikes and scooters, and most of all swimming with your sister.  You know all your letters and shapes and have almost mastered writing your name by yourself.  Your favorite color is purple just like grandma's.  Your are independent as ever and have to pick out your clothes for school and everywhere we go.  You look forward to school days and we love to the spring in you step as you walk to the bus.  We hope you always love school and keep trying you hardest at everything you do.  You have become the little social butterfly this year and we love it.  You have no fear now of talking to kids but adults is another thing, you still have major stranger danger and that's ok.  In the food department not much has changed, it's not that you are a picky eater, but when you aren't hungry you just won't eat.  You LOVE and food that you can dip in a sauce, whether it be salsa, A-1 sauce, spaghetti sauce, mustard, ketchup and her favorite butter and sourcream.  the only candy you wil really eat is Nerd and Candy Corn!!  Somehow evertime you go with daddy you always end up coming home with a treat.  I think it's safe to say Daddy is you most favorite person EVER!!  You think he hung the moon and stars, but in all reality his world revolves around you!!  We LOVE you so so so much and we hope you never forget that.  We can't wait to see what this next year brings with you in our lives.  Here's to many more great years with you cupcake!!

 Happy Birthday Cupcake!!  We LOVE you to the moon and back and forever!!

 LOVE these 3 so so much.

 At the little Hole 'n' the Rock they had all kinds of trinkets and stuff to play on.  The girls loved this little helicopter.  Koriann keep asking for more quarters to ride it.

 This pot bellied pig was the girls favorite and they just kepp going back to it.

 Feeding the camels!!

She was in LOVE with the ostritch and how far it could reach the food.


We decided to pack up and get out of town for Korianns' birthday this year.  It was so fun to head to the perfect weather in Moab.  We LOVE that now we don't have to fork over money for hotels any more when we want to stay right in Moab.  Koriann has been begging her daddy to take her to the zoo, so we went to the little one outside of town.  It was perfect no one around and it was short and sweet.  The girls had a blast and Koriann repeatly asks to go back daily. 

After the zoo we went back to Grandma and Granpa's faboulous yard and hard a party.  Koriann wasn't to into eating anything but her DORA cake.  She has been wanting a Dora party for months and so we went all out with the Dora decorations.  Koriann was just smiling ear to ear when Grandma brought that cake, her face was priceless and she couldn't concentrate on anything else.  As usual she didn't eat hardly anything and only wanted to play with the cake toppers, it's ok it her birthday!!  The best part was when she was opening presents and recieved her camera, she ran right over to Dora and said "Hey Dora look at me so I can take a picture"  cutest thing EVER!!  We were all dying of laughter!!
