Pictures With Grandma & Grandpa

Well, they did it again! Our good friends Carmen & Judah with JCM Photography came out last week and took some pictures of the kids with my parents. I don't think my parents have had their picture taken together since I graduated in 1996! And 2009 will be their 40th Wedding Anniversary, so what better time than now! Thanks again to Carmen & Judah for another awesome set of photos!

Skyler's Party & Halloween Fun

Skyler likes it that her birthday is near Halloween~ it makes for
a two-in-one party!

Even Cadence got in on the action of bobbing for apples~

Trick-or-Treating was a family affair!

The sweetest little devil in town!

Something More Important

Please take a moment to stop and look at Reece's Rainbow Christmas Angel Tree! There are so many little ones waiting. Please consider these angels this Christmas. It makes a wonderful gift and you can help save a life. You can give these precious little sweethearts a chance at life and a forever family.

A VIP Seat & the Golden Tickets!

Yesterday, my friend Carmen and I headed over to the Sarah Palin rally here in the Springs. Totally spur of the moment, I didn't even know she was coming until yesterday morning. I wasn't sure if we'd get in since you have to RSVP online. So I RSVP'd all of us (including the boys) and it went through. I rearranged my schedule and even picked up Skyler from school early. We headed over to the Jet Center and got there fairly early. While trying to find a good place to hang out so we could see, the volunteer team saw us and asked us if we would like to sit in the restricted "invite only" area in the bleachers right behind the stage and podium. Well, heck, yes, we would! After seeing Cadence and Jaemen (our Golden Tickets), they thought it would be nice for us to be back there and also thought it would be nice for us to be able to sit! THANK GOD! Cadence is almost 40 pounds and my arms were already aching. Needless to say, we got an AWESOME seat in the house. It was a very spectacular event to be at. The highlight of the evening was when Sarah turned around and saw Cadence & Jaemen. She gave us a wink and a wave and we gave her one back. At the end, as they were making their way out and shaking hands and signing autographs, Todd Palin told me to give Cadence a hug and we told him "We love Trig!". He also told Carmen he loved Jaemen's curly hair! LOL.

My friend Lisa was in the audience and actually captured these pictures- thanks Lisa!
Oh, and the boys did very well for having to sit there for almost 4 hours!!!
