The new house

So we are in the new house! It has been so hectic and crazy but so great too! I dont have pictures yet because it is not really put together yet! It takes so long to get settled! So there will be pictures eventually!

Haloween!

Once again we headed to orangeville for halloween! We love to go up cuz we know everyone and it is fun to spend it with grandma and grandpa. This year, for the first time, Merrill was able to come with us! So merrill and I, and grandma and Rikelle took the kids trick or treating! It was so fun! It is a miracle we got pictures! I left my camera home and so i borrowed my moms and somehow while we were in and out of the car we lost it! We are so lucky someone in my parents ward found it and returned it to us at church! Yay! Anyways...this year macie wanted to be a witch but not the mean kind! So leave it to us to make a witch look so cute! Haha! And we know every witch needs a black cat!

Carving pumkins

So instead of acually carving the pumkins we just let them color them with markers. I thought it would be less of a mess but no matter what Brielle can make a mess! Oh well! They had a ball!

Primary Program

Macie had her first priamary program a couple weeks ago. She was so exited about it! She loves this kind of thing...anything where she can perform and have people whach her. She loves to perform and did she ever! I could hear her voice all the way in the back! She knew every word to every song and sang them loud! she had a smile on her face and her head held high the whole time! She also did very good in her speaking part. I swear this girl is going to be famous one day!

My new ride!!!...in my dreams!!!

Yeah right! Like this is really mine! Someday!!! Just our family friend let me sit in it and pretend for a minute! Looove it!!!

My baby brother is married!!!!

What a day at work

I know this wont mean a lot to most of you but as a hairdresser this is soooo cool! today at work (the paul mitchell school) we had some really cool guests! Winn and George! They are like super stars in the industry! Winn is the founder and co owner of the Paul Mitchell schools. He is a modevational speaker and is sooooo amazing! I got to sit and listen to his speech this morning and then this afternoon George took the floor. he was hilarious and so much fun to listen to and whach. He talked a lot about the industry and did a couple haircuts for us. George owns some of the schools and owns a lot of salons...loonatic fringe if anyone knows of them. He is so good at what he does! He has a celebrity clintele that you wouldnt believe! I learned so much from both of them and really felt uplifted and inspired! I cant believe I got paid for this!!

I love my family!

He even sat and whached hannah montana with us! What a guy!

I just love my family! The girls are so cute and sweet and Merrill is just amazing! He is the best dad! He plays so cute with them! he gives them horse back rides around the house. Brielle holds on to Macie for dear life and they just have a ball! I asked "Where are you going on that horse?" and Macie said "New York City!" haha! She is al about the New york City thing since the hannah montana movie. We were getting out of the car one day and she stepped out and yelled "Hello new york!" just like hannah does on the movie! it was too funny! I really feel so lucky to have such a great family who love me and I love them!

update...again!

Bri in her room

Macie in her room...what a poser!

Here is the latest on the house. It is so close to being done. We cant even go inside cuz they are locking it up. It has all the cabinents and countertops and toilets and light fixtures and tile. I think all that is left is door knobs, carpet and landscaping. Im so exited!

Update on the house

The house is moving so fast! One day it was a cement slab and a week later we got a house! One day they framed most of it, the next day they finished framing, the day after that the had walls up, then a roof! Wow! Next week they will start the dry wall. We had our walk through meeting last thursday and they showed us all the electrical stuff and all that boring jibber jabber and he kept asking "do you have any questions?" so finally macie said "I have a question! When is my room going to be done?!" I think it is moving so fast but for a kid a couple months is an eternity! She is so exited to get a new house and a new room. We turned in all our final picks so I hope it looks okay when its done! I keep second guessing myself but I think it will work out!

Sitterud reunion

Gotta love the tree swing!

Macie and Madi showing off their loot!

Diggin in the saw dust for MONEY!

It was a bit much for Bri!

Last weekend we went to the Sitterud reunion (my moms family). It was so fun to see everyone! We have always been a close family but now that we are all older and have families of our own and live all over the place, it is hard to keep up with everyone. It was so fun to see everyones kids and what they are doing. We went up to joes valley and we spent the day playing games and visiting and just having fun together. Macie loved all the little cousins and playing in the mountains! Thanks for a good time everyone!
