The Latest

The kids are out for Spud Harvest and we had great plans to head to Utah on 10-7 and stay for five whole days. My nephew Wacy is entering the MTC today and my other nephew Ben is getting baptized on Saturday so it was a perfect reason to go spend some time with family. Our plans changed when Ashtyn and Brigham woke up with 103 degree fevers on Tuesday. We are all really bummed that we are still here but we are making the most of it. I made home made play dough,got a new movie and each of them their own Sprite. We only cry when we realize that we should really be in Utah right now. Bummer. They are feeling better so maybe by Friday we can still make it down. For now, here are a few pics from the last week or so: My little helpers. They all love helping with Macy and I must say I appreciate the help and actually trust them to hold her. The Ricks' family has six people with birthday in October alone so we just throw one big birthday bash to celebrate. We had it at our house this year. This doesn't look like much of a party, but it was fun. We got out the chocolate fountain, had homemade pumpkin pie, turkey, potatoes etc. We didn't even eat the cake because we were all too full! It also snowed this week. Here is Macy and her first snow. Here are the girls playing in the snow. Brigham threw a big fit over his winter boots so he choose not to play outside. Maybe next snow (and now that he has new boots) Macy is officially 4 weeks old. Here she is with Haylee, she is getting big way too fast! Also notice that Haylee lost one of her two front teeth on 10-3. She was so excited.
