We're Grandparents

Carolina Arabella was born on October20th. She weighed 7lbs 12 oz and was 18 1/2" long. We are so excited to be grandparents!! We can't wait to see her. It is silly, but when I go to the store I feel this huge urge to buy EVERYTHING! It is so much fun!! Amy got to go see her and hold her last night, and she took me these pictures!! I am so excited to have pictures I can go print and scrapbook!!!!

Halloween

Here are the girls in their costumes. I decided not to dress up, yeah I know...We went to the carnival at the school and then trick or treating! Jordan was too funny..she didn't want to walk alone. We did ave a fun time. Fritz and Jaimie watched scary movies.

Haunted House

Wow, how fun was this? The house csme pre-assembled, but one of the corners were broken, so Fritz had to doctor it up. He is the house builder after all! LOL. We loved it!!

"Carving" pumpkins

We were not able to carve our pumpkins this year, because they froze! They were all squisy and sweating so bad we almost couldn't draw on them, but Fritz, Jordan & Jaimie had so much fun doing them anyways!!

Reception

We don't have the pictures from the photographer yet, but thank goodness for my sisters & mom!! I am so glad they took pictures, because I didn't have my phone on me all day let alone my camera! There are so many more pictures than this, and I am sure Jessica will put some of her favs on her blog, and when Brooke is done, we will get to see all of those too!! I just loved how everything turned out!!! Even thou all the girls in line ended up wearing jackets...it was still alot of fun, and worth it! It was so pretty. Jessica said it turned out just they way she dreamed it would! I still can't believe my baby girl is married!! We love Avery & are so glad to have another addition to our family!!!

Reception Decorations

Here are some of the decorations at the reception. It all turned out so nice!! We loved it! A gust of wind came up about 5:30, and blew everything over, and I got really worried, but it all worked out!! We were not able to light our candles, but the yard was absolutley beautiful, especially after dark. The pictures we have of it after dark just don't do it justice!

Wedding Luncheon

The wedding luncheon was really nice. TD and her girls went to alot of effort!! It was yummy food, adorable decorations, and the candy was such a fun treat. They had an adorable candy jar on each table, and a scoop, everyone had a cute container that they got to go around to all the tables and fill with whatever candy they wanted to. What a clever idea!!!

Jessica & Avery's Wedding

Here a few pictures of the newlyweds when they came out of the temple. What an amazing day! I can't believe it finally arrived. Their wedding ceremony was beautiful! I felt so blessed to have so many family members travel to be a part of their day! I love being a part of such a big wonderful family! I am so glad Jessica is marrying into a great family!!

Bridal Showers

Wow, Jessica is so lucky! She actually had 3 bridal showers. Her 3 new sister-in-laws threw her one up in SLC in August, which was amazing! Her Grandma Ziegler threw her one in St. George on Sept. 11th, and it was so much fun!! The pictures I've posted are from that shower. It was so good to see family I haven't seen forever. We played some really fun games. One of the pics is of Jessica being a good sport dressing up for her "rehersal dinner". The shower in Monticello was also really nice. We had a good turn out, and a lot of fun! I feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends who show their love and support to my children!

Field Trip

Jordan & I went to Natural Bridges on her class field trip. It was a very educational experience! I told Jordan the last time she was there, she was in my belly! I am so glad we went!

Mother Daughter Campout

We had so much fun at the 2nd annual mother daughter campout. The stake really goes to a lot of work to make it fun! We had fun visiting, eating, watching a talent show, and then roasting marshmallows while we listened to cowboy stories. We took along Rene, Madi,their nanny and Allie Eberling. We look forward to it next year!! We missed having Manike along, she was able to go with us last year!
