A 4 year old in the house!

4 years ago as of about 4:27 this morning, our sweet lukey was born! He was as stuborn then as he is now! He is a ball of fire and we can't imagine our lives without him! He is such a sweet boy, full of imagination and very spirited. I can't believe he is 4 already, it seems like it went by too fast, soon he will be going to school and making friends and I will just be his mom, not his best bud anymore ( i hope it never happens but I'm preparing myself!)

For lukes birthday cake has been telling me for about a month that he wanted a red dinosaur cake, so I did my best and I think it turned out alright, but I didn't get a good picture of it. And for his birthday dinner he wanted Steak and potatoes with little trees (brocoli).

Happy Birthday to my Sweet, loving Lukey!

I have a confession to make.........

I LOVE to dress my boys the same! Caleb is constantly telling me it is SOOO lame but I think they are so handsome and its kinda cute right now....It will stop....someday....when they make me, but as for now I am the mom! When he starts dressing them, he can do what he wants!

Halloween.........better late than never right!

Luke Skywalker
Ryan the Ewok
Haylie as Darth Vader

Ryan didn't make it throgh the Bashas trick or treat

Isn't he a cute Ewok? I loved it! And he figured out the trunk or treat pretty fast!

Pumpkins!

We started with these.......





















made this,








and this,











and took a try at this (caleb has been BEGGING for a pie from the pumpkin, not the can) It really wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be, but its still easier to open the can. Caleb said that there wasn't much difference in taste but when I made pumpkin rolls out of it, they were fluffier than the canned pumpkin!

BTW, one pie pumpkin made 2 pies and 3 pumpkin rolls! Can you believe it!

SNOW!

Can you believe we woke up to this the week of Halloween!?!










It was so crazy cold and the kids loved to be it in.....








for like 5 minutes, until he got cold!

Birthday

Every year Caleb makes me a birthday cake! This year it was chocolate with cherries and whipped cream between the layers....YUMMY!

Here is Ryan enjoing the pizza and rootbeer

Living the High Life!

We had the opportunity to go to flagstaff where caleb had been working and stay in a motel room....a first for my boys! Luke LOVED it! It was so fun to watch him in his excitement, he was so silly!

what a cute boy he found in the mirror!
