Fall Fun

The kids had so much fun playing in the leaves, they were cute and I had to add this video. I don't know how many of you have tried to add videos but it is a pain. I tried doing it through blogger after hours I decide it would not work, so I tried another online video thing and it did not work. Finally I did it through You Tube which still took forever and the pictures quality is really bad but you can see it. But if anyone has a better idea about downloading videos let me know. If you hit this link I think it will let you watch the video!

A collage of multiple things we did, you can click on this pic and it will make it a lot bigger!

Some of our BEST Friends Crystal, Blake Stanford and their two kids Kalli and Kamden came from Utah to visit us! It has been great! We had a busy week but we wanted to show them how fun Columbus can be. We went to COSI, which is a really fun children's museum they have tonz of things to do there. We also went to Hocking Hills it was a really pretty time to go the leaves were changing, the drive was beautiful and it actually was not that cold. The kids loved Boo at the Zoo the kids loved it who wouldn't you get to see animals, dress up and get candy! The OSU game was fun they played PENN State, OSU lost :( but it was a lot of fun because it was a close game. Thanks mike and Candice for watching the kids! We showed them some of the sites around downtown Columbus. You can not come to OHIO and not see Kirtland Temple so we drove to Kirtland, OH and saw the temple and the Church Historical sites. The temple is actually owned by Community of Christ formally known as RLDS Church, but they will take you on a tour through the temple which is neat to see but it is weird because it is just a building you can't really feel the spirit there. They don't even tell you about all the amazing Revelations that happened there. Then you go to the LDS historical sites like the Newel K. Whitney store and house, they also show a video and you really feel the spirit there it is neat to see the contrast the LDS church really talks about God and the Prophets, and the history of the area more. It is really neat to be this close to some of the church historical sites and learn more about the Gospel. Crystal and Blake we really enjoyed having you guys out here come any time!

Circleville pumpkin festival

We went to a pumpkin festival in Circleville it was interesting I was surprised at how many people were there it was difficult to push the strollers through. We met some friends up there Ashley & Jeremy and there kids, it was difficult to find them at first. We did not know what to expect because we have never been there before, but basically it was big fair with giant pumpkins the biggest one was 1300 lbs can you believe that! Braxton was kinda grumpy and wanted to run around all over the place, which did not help so we pretty much had to strap him in the stroller! He got used to it and we had a good time his favorite part was the parade that we were not going to stay for but it started on out way out so we watched for a little while, he loved watching the cars go by are the any surprises about that!


This was giant pumpkin pie!
Brax & Dad by the third place pumpkin!
The 1st place was over 1300 lbs, the second place was 1145 lbs, the third place was over 1000.
This was before the ride started and they were still pretty excited about it!

Braxs looking around at everything at the fair.

A view of the pumpkin tree and all the gourds and pumpkins they had!

Brax likes pumpkins, he wanted to see the "really big pakins"


Cute little family!Posted by Picasa

So we are pretty much some of the meanest parents ever! Brax really wanted to go on this and it did not look that bad we thought it would be a lot slower, well we let him go on it with cambri and it pretty much terrified both of the them. I don't know if he will ever go on a roller coaster again. He made it around twice before he started bawling and the guy had to stop it and let him and cambri both off! Then he called it the scary dragon! Brax is not in this video I did not think to get a video of him while he was in it, kev thought to get it after and show you how fast this little dragon coaster was, I think brax might have shaken baby syndrome now!

Braxs the Ladies Man!

We watched our friends kids the other day when they went to the game and they were really cute! This is Taylee Richards dressed in her cute cheerleaders outfit complete with sunglasses, cell phone and multiple necklace's!


Braxs is a little young to be dating but he knows how to treat these two young ladies! Give them chicken and fries that is what every girl wants right? Geese I think I might be in trouble he is going for two at the same time!


Spider Man was also pretty popular! Reagan and Taylee both liked him!

He ended the night by getting a kiss from both of them! Geese!

A visit from grandma!!

When some people think of their Mother In Law it is a scary thought. Well I am very lucky because my mother in law is awesome! We have a lot of fun together! She is so fun to be with, Braxton loves her she has a amazing ability to make a game out of every thing. Well all kids love her, when we went home to visit Utah my nieces asked me what happened to that lady that used to live with you (we lived with Kevin parents for a while) because they wanted to play with her. She is so creative and comes up with the best ideas. She has taught me a lot since I have come to join their family. She is a person you know who is always willing to help. Lindy Lou I wanted to thank you for all that you do for us we LOVE it when you come to visit. We miss you already. Thanks again we LOVE YOU!!

We went to the air force museum in Dayton and it was pretty interesting, braxs loves airplanes but it was kinda funny when we got there and were looking at the big airplanes he was afraid of the them. He kept saying scared scared! We kept telling him that he is not scared he is having fun but he was scared!






we took a lot more pics while Lindy was here but I don't know what I did with them so these are the only ones I have.
