My visiting teacher has season tickets to the Diamonbacks Baseball games. Yesterday she put a word out on facebook that she wasn't using her tickets that night and wanted to know if anyone wanted them!
I immediately responded to her and we took the girls to the game. We met Chris after work, rode the lightrail to the game, and enjoyed a beautiful evening at the ball park!
What a fun night! I can't believe this was the last Twilight Movie! I have seen every single movie with these girls and I'm so glad we made it a tradition! Our numbers have been bigger in the past and we missed the girls who couldn't make it!
We had a great time and I love spending time with these girls!
{Out of sheer laziness I decided not to edit these pictures: Sorry ladies! Enjoy the red eyes in all their glory!}
We had a fun Halloween this year! Between the girls halloween parties, the ward trunk-r-treat, classroom parties, and trick-or-treating, we are officially Halloween'd out! In a good way!
Chris's parents came over for dinner and walked the subdivision with us. Afterwards we hung out in our driveway and passed out candy. It was a great evening!

I thought it would be a really fun idea to host a Halloween party for Elodie and a few of her friends. I love this time of year and I knew we could do something fun for very little expense. When I talked to one of Elodie's best friend's mom about the idea, we decided it would be fun to host the party together. It worked out perfectly. We split the task and it was a really fun evening.
Elodie decided last year that she wanted to be Hermione this year. It was a perfect idea since she and Chris have been reading the books together.
She played the part well and really got in to character!
I will post the pictures from the party tomorrow. For today here is a TON of pictures of Elodie as Hermione.

We managed to survive our annual Big Dirty this year. I remember a year ago feeling so disappointed that we were missing the Big Dirty. We hadn't missed a year in 10 years so it felt really weird to be at church during the Labor Day weekend. It's hard to even think that a year has come and gone and here we are! Like we never left. And I'm so thankful we were able to take the girls this year- they were in cousin heaven and had the best time ever! Even little EK had fun and didn't mind the dirty or the camping trailer!
I instagrammed our way through the weekend - Enjoy!
