What will we be...halloween?

Trick-or-treat!

Conner-football player

Carly-garden witch

Cole-"Cars" pitcrew man (suppose to be a dinosaur)

Lindsey-Verizon girl (several of her friends dressed up as the cell phone girls from the commercial on TV)

We went to our ward trunk or treat on Tuesday night. The kids loved it. Loaded up on candy.


Friday, Halloween we went with some friends and trick-or-treated through Orchard Ranch neighborhood. Some houses were giving giant candy bars, wow! The Hunts (our friends) had several families over they cooked hotdogs, chili, smore's, snack foods and hot chocolate. We sat in their drive way and had a great time! So sad Erik had to work!

Carly the prettiest Garden Witch around!




Perfect age appropriate costume for Lindsey. The girls had a great time being together! We are blessed Lindsey has wonderful friends.




Conner what a stud! We tried to find an ASU jersey, but I wouldn't spend $55 on one. Luckily he is an easy going kiddo who was happy with what we found. Where is Cole?

Family pictures in a few weeks should be loads of fun. He obviously doesn't like having his picture taken right now!


A fun Halloween Lindsey trick-or-treated for 3 hours!



















Jase ...THREE years old!

Happy Happy Birthday Jase-man...
Known for his lovable personality!
Jase gives the best hugs and loves to everyone he meets.
He can put a smile on your face in minutes.
He will still your heart with his sweet tight hugs.
I love Thursday's when Cole and I hang out and get to play with him.
Have a Happy "3rd" birthday!
Love you buddy!

Is it true Shelene you are 21??

Shelene is such a beautiful and talented niece! I love hanging out with her! She is 21 I can't believe it. Right now she is filling out her mission papers. She has always wanted to serve the Lord, I totally admire her. She is also one smart chic! Right now she works with children who have special needs (is she my kind of gal or what? I wish she would have been one of my assistance when I was teaching!)

I enjoy the times we have together! She is so supportive of all I am going through. I love to catch her on the phone and just see how life is going!

Happy Birthday Shelene I love you!

(her birthday is on Halloween Oct. 31)




Oct. 29 Tanner is NINE!

Tanner Oh my you are NINE!
We love you so much.
When Tanner comes to visit you can either find he and Conner throwing a ball around or playing X-Box. Tanner is a great kid!
He won this "FAMOUS" Diamondback shirt at our family reunion and I think wore it every day after that! We love that he likes our Arizona teams. Hope you had a super BIRTHDAY! We love you lots! Come visit us soon!

Pumpkin carving time!

Sunday night, Oct. 26
It is that time of year again...pumpkin carving.
How we do this is...
1. the kiddos draw out what they want.
2. Erik and I help clean out their pumpkins.
3. either they or Erik draws their design with a marker on the pumpkin.
4. the kiddos insist that Erik carves their pumpkins.
5. Lindsey did do all of hers this year (an ASU pumpkin).
6. kiddos love what dad has done.
6. mom takes lots of pictures.
7. place outside on the bench and light the candle.
8. fun fun!
Not the funnest part for Lindsey.
Carly likes to help clean out the pumpkins.

Dad working his magic. This year I forgot to buy the carving tools. So, we did very simple faces!

Silly Conner - you are too skinny to be a pumpkin!

Carly helping collect the seeds for us to cook.


Two cute faces! My favorite is the one on the left!

Oops a little blurry, Conner is a sport fanatic, one of his favorite teams BYU!

You ask where was Cole? He was taking a bath racing his cars. He had been outside early jumping on the trampoline and smelt like a piggy!
I love nights like these!

No State Fair, but how about OUTBACK steak house?

Every year since I have been in the Morris family we have gone to the State Fair. It is a fun tradition we love. We would always eat popovers, visit the petting zoo, walk through some of the exhibits and ride lots of fun puke rides. I love to go to the fair because I love all the lights. Now the people there are a little scary - our State Fair is held in the bad part of Phoenix. This year we opted to not go due to every one's crazy schedules. Instead Papa and Grammers treated us to a steak dinner, yummy! Aunt Lizzy called in reservations, but we still had to wait 45 minutes to be seated. Thank goodness Aunt Lisa & Uncle Ryan volunteered to watch Cole (since 2 year olds aren't very fun at restaurants, thank you so very much)! Aunt Liesl (Erik's twin) and her two daughters Shelene and Sheridan. Shelene is getting ready to turn in her mission papers. We can't wait to see where she will serve!
Uncle Richard and Erik being silly. Of course they love to get together and tell funny stories. They make us all laugh.


Me and Aunt Liesl glad she could make it she has been having medical problems.

Michael Webb in the back and Jake Lavold - these two boys are VERY silly.


Oh here are the TEENAGERS! They are cute girls who love to be together!


Lizzy and Tina two of my very CUTE sister-in-laws!

Is it almost time to eat, these animals are HUNGRY?
Jake, Stephanie, Kaelen, Carly and Megan
Me, Tina, Nana and Grammers


Erik, Papa and Uncle Brian talking SPORTS!
Thanks for the delicious dinner and fun company!
