Gardner Village!

For the past 3 years I have gone to Gardner Village for their Witch Fest, I just think it is so dang cute. I of course couldn't pass an opportunity to go with 2 of my best friends.

Jill, Cortney and I have been friends since 2008. We met at America First, where we worked literally next to each other in cubicles. We have shared so much together, it's so nice to all go out. I remember it a little different though because then we didn't have our kids with us...or at the time I didn't even have a child, they did. So it's fun to see how much we've changed these past 3 years, so glad we still talk weekly!

Spencer was lucky enough to be able to come join us for the afternoon. He is obsessed with Halloween. He just smiled and giggled the whole time, love you Spencer!

Cambree threw a fit, she hadn't taken a nap and was so hungry. Poor thing!

We ate lunch at Archibald's. I would have to say it was a little crazy in that restaurant. I don't think us 3 girls talked very much, which isn't like us. It was just extremely loud and the kiddos were starving.

I did take a few pictures though! Jill, Logan and Taylor...

Cortney, Winter, Ledger and baby Cabott (he's hiding in her sling, so adorable)...

And of course Miss Cambree and myself...

After lunch Jill gave them all ring pops, which they absolutely loved! You can probably tell since it's still on their faces :)

Thanks girls for the nice afternoon! We'll have to do it again next year!

Trip to Tremonton

Benton's sisters both recently purchased some camping trailers, so they decided to stay the weekend up at Campers World in Tremonton. They invited us to come up along even though we don't have a trailer, nor do I sleep in a tent. So we ended up leaving Saturday morning to go hang out with them for the day.

Benton had Cambree sit on his lap to pet Aimee's new puppy Luke, and of course Roxy had to sniff out her new competition!

Carol showed Cambree her camper and she lite up, she was so excited to see us outside the window.

Cambree had so much fun with all her cousins. It was nice to just let her go off and play with them. Kenna, loves kids and was so wonderful to Cambree the whole time.

Cambree loved to play in the sand, she was pretty dirty after she was all done. Who cares if your dirty when you're camping, that's the way it's suppose to be!

Nanny Linda brought everyone up sandwiches for lunch. It was nice all being together and just hanging out.
Here is Cambree with her cute Nanny...

Here is Cambree and I, even though Cambree wasn't too thrilled to have her picture taken. She is getting harder and harder to take pictures of.

Last night we had hot dogs rolled up in crescent rolls, I think the best part was watching them cook in the fire :)

I have to admit, I am not a camper at all (Benton grew up camping, so he really enjoys it). I love the idea of camping, but actually doing it...well it's just not my thing. But I loved sitting with everyone by the fire. We of course had to get a family picture!

Ri loves to snuggle up with Cambree, she's so sweet to her. Girl cousins are the best!

Aimee and her little boy Andrew...

Cambree is becoming more and more dramatic. She threw a fit and here she is the next minute with daddy...yes she's laughing her head off.

You can't go camping without getting a little messy...my favorite SMORES!

We left about 8:30pm and drove to the Hampton Inn. Like I said, I'm not much of a camping girl. This morning Cambree's hair was out of control. Somehow every morning her hair looks like this...

It seriously is crazy. After a yummy breakfast at the hotel, we took a dip in the pool. When we walked in, Cambree said "WOW!"

She giggled the whole time, kicking her legs for joy. And she was able to snuggle with daddy...

Such a fun time with the family, I could seriously hang out with them every weekend. Love you all!

Just Relax

This week was crazy busy for myself and Benton. It has unfortunately been pretty stressful. We had to make another job decision, which we turned down. We also found out there is a possibility that we have to move again. The landlord of the house we are renting is having financial struggles, so we might be forced to move out (not my choice at all). So we needed to spend the day just hanging out.

We first hit Jimmy John's. I was CRAVING their turkey sandwich with avocado spread, so delicious...

Cambree enjoyed running around!

Afterwards we headed up to Silver Lake. I have been wanting to take a drive up the canyon to see the beautiful fall leaves. It was absolutely breath taking.

We enjoyed walking around the lake. Benton wants to find a new place for us to go because there were a lot of people. Suggestions?

Cambree wasn't really into us taking pictures, she was more interested in her surroundings...I guess I don't blame her :)

So Benton and I decided to leave her out of the next picture. Love you Bent!

Family picture!

Hopefully this next week will be less stressful. I'm sick of making such big decisions, it's exhausting!
