Thanksgiving and the Christmas Light Parade

Each year on Black Friday we end the day with going to the Spanish Fork light parade.  This year I didn't go Black Friday shopping until 8am.  I was so tired and slept horrible that night and hadn't really seen anything in the ads that enticed me.  BJ did go out at 5am and bought the few things that we had seen. 

We spent Thanksgiving at my dad's house.  I helped Kathryn make 8 pies the day before.  BJ made the stuffing/dressing and the potatoes.  He did a great job.  We had 6 of my siblings at my dad's by the time we got to dessert and I think that is the most in 8+ years.

Halloween

Better late than never.  Here are my girls in their witch costumes from Halloween.  They had so much fun going trick or treating once the rain let up.  Kenni kept telling me more candy mom.  She was really good at saying trick or treat. 

Here is a picture of the Roberts grandkids before heading out for the evening.

Dentist

I took the girls to the dentist for the first time.  I took them by myself did I mention I took them by myself.  BJ scheduled all three of us for the same day.  I will never take them when I have to have my teeth cleaned again.  I was laying with my mouth open and my arm was stretched as for as I could to try and keep Kennidee in the room. 

Both of my girls did extremely well.  I thought Kennidee would freak out but she watched McKell go first and then she said is it my turn now.  I said yep and she jumped up on the chair and had her teeth cleaned.  I was shocked.  She wouldn't let the actual dentist get anywhere close to her she screamed and jumped off the chair pretty fast.  They did so good for it being their first time.

Bowling

We went bowling with Brian and Alisha.  We went to the new bowling alley with all of our kids.  McKell had so much fun rolling her ball.  She tried rolling it with just her own strength and it didn't quite make it. 

Alisha and Annika bowling.  We all shared an order of fries.  Their fries were to die for.  When I put my shoes on I felt like my feet were going to burst.  I then went to pick out a ball and my fingers could hardly even fit in the holes.  It was so uncomfortable and I ripped off the top part of my thumbnail by the end of the night. 

I definetly did not win this game.  Brian kicked all of our trash, then BJ, Alisha over took me right at the end which put me desd last.   By the way I am pretty sure Annika won me too.

Preschool party

McKell's Halloween party at school.  I volunteered to help.  I helped them make paper plate ghosts.  They turned out really cute. 

McKell had so much fun dressing up as a witch.  It was fun to see her preschool class getting into the Halloween spirit. 

All of the mom's line their cars up so the kids can go trunk or treating.   

Most of the mom's gave really good treats.  One of them even did a ziploc full of different candy.  I told McKell that she could have one piece.  She said she wanted the one in the ziploc.  Smart kid since it had so much candy in it.
