Fun weekend

SO I'm not going to post about the election results...because I have nothing positive to say and it's been depressing me for days! I really don't know whether I'll ever completely get over it! I never got over David Archuleta not winning American Idol and this was a much bigger blow than that! Anyway, we had a fun weekend with my family here visiting and TC's parents. We also had a house warming party on Saturday night. Here are some fun pictures.

Fun at City Creek
Savanna and my brother, Spenser

 Reading Time with Grandma (TC's mom)

 Clark completely passed out at the Cheesecake Factory!! I can't decide whether he's ready to be done with naps. When he does nap he often stays up too late but when he doesn't we sometimes find ourselves in this situation or he is up and super crabby. Sigh.


 House warming party: I wasn't very good at remembering to take pictures. This is my friend, Andrea, and her daughter, Afton.
 The kids enjoying a movie: Clark, Paisley, Savanna, Holland
 Our friends, Dallin and Brittany
 


 The above pictures were of family dinner Sunday at my parents' house in Utah. Below is my mom playing with the kids at our house before heading off to the airport back to Florida!
 The kids are loving the space in our new house!! They even like using the unfinished basement part to run around and ride bikes. TC's mom gave us this idea. Thanks Ann!

Recent Savanna Quotes



I know I've missed a lot of the funny things this cute girl has said over the past month but here are a few I remember. She cracks us up. I love this girl!

  • "Hello Mommy's husband!" (to TC when he came home from work one day)
  • (To Jonathan, my brother's girlfriend) Savanna: "Is Jonathan your only boyfriend?" Chelsea: "Yes he is." Savanna: "I don't have any boyfriends."
  • (To Chelsea) "Is Jonathan the one you are supposed to marry?"
  • "Mommy and Nana you need to calm down."
  • "Nana I know you are not 29. You just don't want to tell us how old you are."
  • "I am so excited for Halloween!"
  •  (Background:We went to Kneaders with my mom for lunch one day and the kids both got a kids' meal. Savanna had a yellow skeleton as her toy and Clark had a pink one. Clark wanted to keep the pink one but Savanna really wanted the pink one. I told her just to let Clark play with the pink one for a couple of minutes. A few minutes later I saw Clark had the yellow one and Savanna had the pink one.) Savanna: "Clark's skeleton is yellowish green." Me: "Savanna did you tell Clark his skeleton is green because that is his favorite color so you could get the pink one?" Savanna: "Yes I did."

What we have been up to in pictures.


So I'm usually pretty good at keeping my blog updated but I've gotten a bit behind with moving and everything. So here is kind of what we have been up to this past montb or so in pictures which are far overdue. I did not get pictures on the night I went to the Carrie Underwood concert though on October 10th. That was awesome! Anyway enjoy the pictures and I'll try to explain them a bit.

Some fun with friends at the park: Elle and Addie

Clark passed out at 7:30 after not taking a nap. (He's been taking naps less and less these days...)
TC decided to give Clark a hair cut. It turned out pretty good.
