New Do! November 2008

So here it is. My new hair do. I thought It warranted blogging about since its 13 months since my hair saw a pair of scissors but sadly only a few weeks since it saw hair dye that ravaged my hair! What with the dry climate here and my english hair it was in desparate need of some tlc. So this is me after being sat in a chair for 4 hours!!!! Not kidding. Here in Provo they have a Paul Mitchell hair salon school where you can go get your hair done for 8 dollars. The dye is like 30 dollars. So I'm gonna be getting a new barnet every few weeks at those prices!! The only draw back is the time it takes. They are trainees afterall and while the haven't perfected their speed they are pretty good at cutting. But I figure thats 4 hours to read undesturbed except to ask about where I'm planning my holidays sorry vacations!! I'll take it anyday!!

The Belly Strikes Back!! November 2008

So here it is the newest addition to our family!! Well almost!! The baby started kicking in my 16th week which is a tad early I think. Its when Lucas started kicking me too. Phoeb's was a lazy baby and didn't bother to let me know she was there until I was 21 weeks!! I really thought she was dead!! So this makes me think I've got another Lucas coming. As if the world could handle 2 Lucas's!! But whatever is instore we are so excited for number 3!

Bonfire Night Usa style!!

So we wanted to carry on our very British tradition of having bonfire night. Mostly cos It's my fav night of the year! We had a great time. The kids got filthy and cold and loved every minute of it!!

Enjoying hotdogs roasted on metal coat hangers in the fire!!Stu looks like he's in some sales advert. He lokks lost in some fake conversation!! But I assure you the moment was real!!

Roasted smores...Yum!!

Being men and taking charge of the fire!!

Halloween 2008

Lucas was so proud to be Buzz. I'd been sewing his costume all week and each time part of it was done he wanted to try it on. His excitement was so cute. We think he actually became Buzz for a while with his flying off stuff!! My little Jesse!!
We got so much candy!!

Phoebe was so freaked out by Camerons wig and mustache she never quite recovered!! Hence why she isn't in the photo and is infact hiding in her pram!! Julie and Cameron were Sunny and a very pregnant Cher!

More Pics from Halloween 2008

So this is Mark being Buzz Lightyear too. He played the part all night and made us all laugh!!Last weekend we went on a hay ride up in Layton with Chris, Anna and their kids. The hayride involved sitting on a long flat bed cart on hay bales and being pulled along by a tractor wich Lucas loved. We were then driven to the pumpkin patch where we all got to chose a pumpkin. Being English and wanting to get the most for our money we decided to get the biggest pupmkins possible. I lived to regret it when it came time to carve them!! Pumpkin carving strike 2 minus stu!!
The big one was about 2 inches thick!! I've got musles where I never thought possible!!

After going trick or treating around Kristens old neighborhood we went to their neighbors house for donuts! Yum!!

This pumpkin is bigger than my child and weighed more too!!
