Cam at the trunker treat at the school after the parade.

The family halloween party. Joel hated that he had to dress up.


The hay ride was actually very bumpy and we were glad it only lasted a few minutes.



Hunter thinks he is a real cowboy. And was mad when I wouldn't let him ride the full size mechanical bull. Horrible mother, I know. Ifigured we had mad it 4 years without a broken arm and I wanted to keep it that way.



Jumping on giant bubbles.





They couldn't quit figure the millking out. And honestly neither could I.






Decorating scarecrow princesses.







Cam would have rode the horse all day. I think it was her favorite.


















Well we needed a break this weekend so we decided to have a quiet getaway. Not so much with out the kids, but time to be together without any interuptions or a time schedule to go by. I got us a room at the hotel in Lehi, buy Thanksgiving pointe. I have never really been there when they have had big events going on, but it was alot of fun. I think the kids loved it. So after the parade at school and trunker treat we called it good and got out of there. After spending all day walking around we decided to go to the movie. Well the only movie there kid friendly was HSM3, so yes we saw it AGAIN! Me and the kids were glad to see it again. Joel, not so much. He got over it. We spent well deserved time in the pool and decided we definately need a hot tub. We came home well rested and glad to have the break from everything, everyone and reality for a few days.

Cam got baptized September 6, 2008. I think people started to think we weren't going to baptize her. Kinda hard when they only do them 1 Saturday a month, and it's camping and boating season. The week before was kinda stress full. Joel and Hunter spent the week in Idaho putting a new roof on our house in Idaho, it looks great. But things worked out great, I tend to stress myself out with preparing for events. Cam looked so pretty. It makes me feel old now. We had allot of family there. The McQuivey's are so great. Grandparents, Aunts & Uncles and Cousins are always all there to support each other in EVERYTHING. But what do you expect when you tell them there will be food involved. And to carry on with our crazy life style we also had two baby blessings that weekend. Luckily one at 9am and the other at 11am. So we were able to hit both. And no I'm still not baby hungry, in case you were wondering. But would love to babysit if anyone needs it.




The kids have been having fun with soccer. I have never really watched Soccer. I like it. Cam's done really good. There are some good little players on her team. As for Hunter they are just learning basic fundamentals. Like kicking it in the right goal. They pretty much just run around each other. And Hunter is more into what kind of treats they get or doing tricks on the grass. I proud of him to be out there trying though. We stay pretty busy with Cam having Cheer on Monday, Dance on Tuesday, Soccer practice on Wednesday and Games on Saturday. And she has even mentioned Singing, Swimming and Riding Lessons. Whew.... maybe next season.





Well the twins finally arrived last weekend. Well when most people think of "twins" they think babies, blonde's or boobies. Well not when you mention it around Hunter. Joel has trained him, "It means, More Power." And after a few sleepless nights for Joel and Brian they were in. And with a miner unexpected, $800 repair of replacing the heater core he was ready to run. And now even just running to the grocery store we have to punch it and hit 120mph at least once on our journey. Joel is definitely happy and ready to put it to the test. As for me. . . whatever makes him happy. And I have been told that this is the last of enhancements on the truck. We'll see how long that lasts.


As for me I have been intrigued with the books by Stephanie Meyer. I am half way through the second(which is kinda dragging) and can't wait to move on to the next. I'm told the 4Th is the best. My goal is to have all of them done by Nov.22. When the movie Twilight comes out. It is kinda weird a girl in love with a Vampire. But I'm hooked. I honestly havent read a book that thick since I can't remember. Course I'm not actually reading it. I bought the CD. I don't think I would reach my goal if I had to actually read it. I spend alot of time in the car and figured the CD way was the best. It drives Joel and the kids crazy to listen to it though. I now find myself actually driving the speed limit just to hear more. If you haven't read or listened to it I recommend it. Course I think I'm probly one of the last one's that hasn't finished them all yet.

There are a few technical difficulties with the video that happened during the down load. Keep watching the best part is at the very end. Watch Dexter on the right hand side. He can hang on with the big boys when it comes to tubing but towards the end he decided to spread his wings, REALLY. We enjoy hours of entertainment on this thing.

It took Joels uncle Brock 3 times and he finally got it. I thought he was down and he pulled it off right at the end. Wow!
