This is what we woke up to this morning!!! A winter wonderland.
Jackson thinks he's so clever, he climbs up onto this stool in the bathroom and sits there laughing at himself.

Trunk-or-Treat

I'm too cheap to buy J a costume, they're just too expensive and he doesn't know the difference, so I drew this on his orange shirt. Maybe I'll make him a costume this week before Halloween.
My step-dad with his trunk decoration. I think it turned out cute. He put it together in about 5 minutes!
Minnie Mouse and Papa Scarecrow.
(Do you like the trick-or-treat bag I made for Morgan?)
Tired before the party even started.
(He kind of looks like and alien in this picture).
Racing from trunk to trunk.
Getting candy from my all-time favorite Sunday School teacher, Sister Davis (she was my Sunday School teacher when I was in high school).
Treats from Papa
My cute nephew, Conner, was a Dallas Cowboys football player.

"Peek-a-boo"


Jackson

"High-School Reunion"~October 16, 2010

On Saturday, after my race, I got to spend time with 5 of my best friends from high-school. I love these girls so much!! I was so glad to see them. I only wish I lived here so we could see each other more often.

More Pics From the Half-Stolen From My SIL

You can see us in white in the center. At the start line.
This was about mile 10, I think. This is when I was really starting to struggle :)
I really like this picture of us coming through the finish line. Ha ha, I was SO glad to be done!!! However, I don't remember throwing my arms up...

The Pink Half-Marathon~October 16, 2010

October is breast cancer awareness month. In Park City they held a half-marathon for breast cancer awareness. Brenna (my sister-in-law) convinced me to run it with her. So early on Saturday we headed up to Park City.
Brenna, bright-eyed and busy tailed!!
Betsy is ALWAYS ready to run!
Me, trying to look excited to run 13.1 miles.
Almost start time...
2 hours, 37 minutes, and 17 seconds later...at the finish line
This one is out of order, this was approaching the finish line.
The only after picture I got. I couldn't hold still long enough to let anyone get a decent picture.

Carving Pumpkins~October 15, 2010

After Barnyard Boo on Friday we had a big yummy past dinner to get ready for our half-marathon on Saturday morning. After dinner we carved pumpkins with the kids.
Mine and Morgan's was a very classic traingle pumpkin face.

Barnyard Boo~October 15, 2010

On Friday we met up with some friends at Thanksgiving Point. We went to Barnyard Boo and got Halloween tatoos,
saw some animals,
rode some ponies,
decorated cookies while watching a Halloween movie,
made a witch mask,
rode on a wagon ride,

and played some fun games.
It was fun to see Erin and her 4 cute kids!! They are so adorable!
I thought this was cute, Morgan was walking with her hand in her pocket.
