Falling for Fall

Can fall really be here? It certainly feels beautiful outside!! Fall means a lot of things around our house including Utah games, soccer games, school, and so much more.




Let me just start with a little plug for my boys! I LOVE YOU!!!!! We have had a lot of fun lately and I love playing with them. Our new favorite activity is jumping on our new tramp. They LOVE it and beg for me to join them. My knee is finally feeling up to it and it is a little work out.



This is a picture of O man. He is HILARIOUS!!!!!! He makes us laugh every day! Notice in this picture the items he has in his pull -up. He wears them at night (completely unnecessary!!!) and had to keep them on all day so he could be a "fighter man" this day!! There are about 7 pencils on the other side!!! LOVE HIM!!! AHHH!!! I am lovin some date nights with my honey!!! It felt good to start the Utah season! Really, I am not sure if there is any other stadium with the setting you get at the Rice Eccles Stadium. Only bummer with joining the Pac 12..... no more Don's Donuts! Sorry Jigger!



Moo started his first day of his last year of preschool. Isn't he handsome?



Alan and I made it to Newport for a weekend with no kiddos (thanks to Alan's fam for helping with the boys. We split them up between Alan's parents and siblings. They all had a great time. So a big THANKS goes out to all of them!!!) We arrived and made it to the LA temple where we did a few sealings and then decided to also do a session. That was a great way to start our trip.



Jigger was our tour guide through downtown LA and he did a great job! I really enjoyed the impersonations he provided on our tour. He took us to a Chinese restaurant before the big game and we enjoyed the SLIPPERY SHRIMP.



The game was very exciting and a little difficult to watch at times..... mostly because we could not imagine what we were going to look like the following week against the Cougs.... I won't say much about that. OK.... I will. WAY TO GO UTES!!!!!! Sorry Cougs! That was just ..... I am not sure of a word!!! BAD!



I also need to say CONGRATS!!!!! to my Mom and Dad. They had their 40 year anniversary. Thanks for being such a good example to us!!! We love you!



Finally, C and M's soccer season has started. M's team picked the name, Orange Transformers. C's...the Blue Bulls. C is pretty excited because Jeff is his Coach and his cousins are on his team!







We are still enjoying the BEAUTIFUL weather and hope to for a long while. We still love the new neighborhood and enjoy all the kids to play with during the evening. We are falling for fall and hope it is a LONG one!!!
