Thankful for November!!!

 November was wonderful!!! We have 2 beautiful, healthy girls and are so blessed to have them in our lives.

Thankful for jobs!! We said good-bye to Walmart. Nick got a new job at Thermo-Fisher and it couldn't come soon enough. To celebrate in style, He had a bomb fire of all his walmart memorabilia in the backyard!




Thankful for Big Blue! Reece was able to hit up a basketball game with Papa Curtis-and of coarse managed to spend some time with the big man himself.











Nick had a nice little break between jobs so we took advantage of it and headed south the St George. Dan and Car were able to join. Below are some action shots of the girls performing:)





 They have an awesome splash pad down there. It was a little chilly for the natives but seemed pretty nice compared to up north so we took advantage yet again and having it all to it all to ourselves.







 We made it to the children's museum too but it was a little more crowed with school trips so we kinda rushed threw but was still able to get in some action shots.

OCTOBER

 We made a quick trip to Park City last month with James and Dan and their families.  This was the best attempt of the picture from the lift up to the Alpine Slide. And the below picture is of the girls passed out on the pull out bed where we stayed. It was a fun, quick get away:)

Over UEA we were able to take another weekend getaway to Salt Lake. We thought the kids would enjoy the pool. James and his fam were able to join. On our way home we thought, 'why are we headed home' so we took a detour to Park City to see what deals we would snag on a room. Nick worked his magic and got us a room comped if we sat through a sales pitch the next morning. Totally worth it:) Then we hit up Lagoon with Nick's family on official way home: Great weekend!!


 We adopted a little kitten from Nick's grandpa's farm. Actually 3 but this is the only one that's made it. The mother was hit by a car when they were only a few days old. Reece has named her Star.


 Reece and Eliza posing before we headed to cousin Kendall's birthday party. It was carnival themed-you can always count on Jamie to throw a great party! They had face paint and balloon animals! Good times.










For Family Night we made it to The Heritage Fall Festival. They had corn maze, giant slide, bounce house, hay maze and shooting. The train and ponies weren't open and we didn't want to attempted getting lost in the corn maze but it was still enjoyable. The men loved the ax throwing and the pellet  gun section. Reece even shot her first gun



















Enjoyed the park for the last few warm days of the year!


Sunday dinner at Nana's. It was good enough weather to eat outside. Grandpa Roskelley was so sweet to help Eliza with her plate down the hill to sit with the girls.



My work has a pumpkin contest that the patients vote on. This was my pumpkin for the year:) It didn't win but the girls loved it and that's all that matters.



 Reece had a Halloween Parade at preschool. They sang fall songs and showed off their costumes. So cute!

 For Trick or Treating she insisted on being Elsa and Eliza being Ana (Along with every other little girl in the world :))









 
 Nephew Nash had his baby blessing last week and Reece just can't get enough of him!
