It's Halloween!

TRICK or TREAT!!!!!
(Pimp Paul-dizzle & Officer K)
Halloween 2010 was a fun one... not too much exciting really happened since it is sunday, but we had a fun weekend, especially since it is Brightlie's 1st Halloween! She was a ladybug, Paul was a pimp, and I was a cop. We had fun at our ward's 'trunk-or-treat', visiting family to show off our adorable baby girl, and hanging out with friends!

Brightlie's in the grave yrd...
in our neighbor's front yrd. :)

"Bone" appetit

Cutie pie....

She's boo-tiful!

Brightlie and Nana Biggs- she loved B's pretty costume

Paul, Brightlie, & cousin Kate (tiff's baby)

ADORABLE! (need we say more?)

Paul & I wore T-shirts that said,
"my wife/hubby wanted me to be..." with all kinds of
costume ideas written all over the front.
Then on the back they said "I just couldn't decide"!
Cute, easy costume :)



Dear friends & family, You're invited....

Brightlie's walking!!!

We are so happy! Brightlie took her first steps tonight! 10/11/10
It was so exciting to see her take her first real steps without holding onto everything! First she walked to paul, and then she walked over to me, and we got it on VIDEO!!!! (I have been waiting and anticipating this moment the past few days, and luckily I was prepared with the camera) We love you so much Brightlie! You are getting so big so fast- we are so blessed to have such a sweet, happy little girl in our family! :)

Fall Festal Fun!

The weather has been in the low 90's and the evenings are nice & cool! So, we decided to have some fun on Sat. out at Schnepf Farms!!! Our neighbors/friends, Mike & Leandra Hoffman, joined us for a night out and we had a blast! We ended the night sitting around a bonfire, eating smores, drinking hot chocolate, and laughing at the crazy things that go on in our lives. It was certainly a night of fun that won't be forgotten!
Check it out- get ready for a pic overload! :)

Daddy's lil girl!

Cute lil pumpkin for a cute lil pumpkin!!!
(yes, she is trying to eat it!)

Our favorite pumpkin!

Road rally! This was so fun- pedal driven go-cart type cars,
a bumpy trail, and 3 "grownups" (kids at heart)! We were
ramming into each other and having a blast! But I sure did get a nice
thigh workout- feel the burn!
Brightlie's 1st time on a slide!
(She didn't know what to think)

Me & my hubby-
"not-so" country bumpkins!

Leandra found an adorable baby
goat in the petting zoo!
Petting the goat- it was Brightlie's same size I think!

Bye, bye, goat!

Haha- funny sign- I'm certainly not a country gal,
and the farm life is not for me. But, one night of bonfires, rides
a petting zoo, & corn mazes was fun, minus the farmy smell...

Mike & Leandra Hoffman-
our awesome neighbors!

Voted Cutest Girl at the Farm!
(by mom of course!)

Oct. is here!

Fall is here!!!!! October is here, and I am so happy! It is officially time for for Fall decorations, and the next few months are my most favorite of the yr.! I love to decorate my house based on the season and Hobby Lobby helps with that! (And it makes my home feels so cozy to me) :)

Daily life is fairly busy, between Paul's school, work, & hw, and me chasing Brightlie, working as my Aunt's receptionist, and managing our home... there is never enough time in the day! But I am excited for fall, and the joy that the upcoming holiday season brings! Which reminds me... it's time to start thinking about Brightlie's Halloween Costume, Brightlie's 1st Birthday, Thanksgiving plans, Black Friday, Christmas activities, the works!!!! I can't wait!




Decorations have begun!

Brightlie is getting sooo big!
She loves to use her hand to eat,she is a turbo fast crawler,
loves our dogs, is going through a "clingy" stage with Paul
and I, and truly continues to be the joy of our lives!
