It's a bird, it's a plane ...

 It's super Luke!!!

So I got these slipper socks for Luke to keep his feet warm around the house, and they just happened to have Captain America on them. He insisted on wearing shorts so his new socks weren't covered up. I'm sure you can already guess what happened next.



 My kids have the best dad in the world. Last night Ty made this mask for Luke.

 Grady tried on Luke's mask this morning. That did not go over very well.

All in all it was just another great day at home. :)

(Don't mind the blurry-ness on the jumping shots. I had my ISO up all the way!)

Life

Right now, I would have to say that life is happening a little to fast to be blogged! Life has just been crazy busy. Life with 2 kids and a new baby is crazy enough, but every free moment that I'm not taking care of them or doing house work, I'm trying to stay on top of my photo editing. I knew it would be hard taking pictures this fall, but I really did not want to miss this time of year. This is the busy season for photographers. Lots of people like to get family pictures for Christmas cards, etc.. I do have to say that I've been blessed though. I havn't had more business than I can handle, and I've been luck that I'm lucky that a few people have contacted me for pictures. So if you really want to see what I've been up to lately check out my photo blog.  

I'll just try to play catch up with pictures now. This past weekend my friend Savannah and her family came for a little visit. Sav and I were best friends in high school and roomates in college. She's expecting her 3rd in the Spring! We had a great time reminiscing and our kids got along great! (Don't mind the blurry blob showing up in all my pictures. I got that taken care of. Dumb dust on my sensor!)

Luke saying goodbye to Rhylan. 

We also had our last soccer game on Saturday. I do have to say that coaching was harder than I thought. It is really hard to keep 13 4-6 year olds focused! I'm glad Ty and I did it together. It was fun.

Luke in action! Go Red Lightning!

Luke was so happy to get a medal at the end of the season.

Almost as happy as he was to get a cupcake. :)

Love this kid!

 The three of us! (Please excuse all the extra weight I need to loose. :))

On the first Sunday in November Ty blessed Reddic. It was great. He was blessed to be a kind person and have the desire to hold the preisthood, among other things. We had lots of family in town and afterwards we had a get together with potato bar! If you are on FB than you can just skip these photos. :)

My wonderful, amazing, and talented little brother Devin took these next 2 photos.

October

If you asked me what having 3 kids was like, I'd tell you that it is like running around all day always feeling busy, having 10 things to do at once, and then at the end of the day having nothing to show for it.

Well, this has been a really busy month, but I was able to make it up to my parent's house for the first time since Reddic was born. The fall colors were so pretty. I miss fall.

My mom and Reddic on his first trip to Lakeside

When you are 2, going to grandma's house is all about eating candy and playing with sticks, and if you are really lucky you can do both things at the same time.

Love this picture!

I just can't look at this picture without laughing. Maybe you would just have to know my mom to understand. And no, this picture was not posed at all. 

Love this one too!

The main reason I went up was to see my brother Jeffrey. He's going to BYU, but came down for the weekend. I finally got to play board games with him for I think for the first time since he came home from his mission! I love my nerdy board-game-loving family!

Reddic turned 2 months old on Monday. One one hand I feel like the time has just flown by way too fast since he was born, but on the other hand I feel like we've had him forever and that he has always been part of our family.

On Monday we carved pumpkins for FHE. Grady was my helper. We (I) made a scary pumpkin. Luke helped dad.

 I title this picture "Being 4 in 2011".

Saturday night we went to our ward's trunk-or-treat. The big boys were super heros and Reddic wore the good ole turtle costume that the other boys wore when they were babies. Call me lazy or call me frugal, but I spent $0 on costumes this year and put about 5 minutes of effort into the costumes. Next year I'll do better. I still think they were pretty cute though. I might try to take pics again on Monday of them in their costumes since Grady was just not in the mood for it.

My heros.

Well at least today I can say that I did accomplish something. I updated my blog. :)
