Utah - from 38 to 75 degrees

Chase and I recently spent about 10 days in Utah visiting family and celebrating his 2nd birthday. When we arrived it was freezing and then the snow come...

As a new Halloween tradition all the girls in the family attend "Witchapalooz" at Gardner Village dressed in witches hats. The village is decorated with all different styles of witch and tons a cute shops. The best part of the evening, besides hanging out with all the girls, was watch my little niece Emma dance through out the entire performance, I wish I had her energy.

Fall is in full swing...

I can't believe October is almost over, where does the time go?  The older I get the quicker time seems to fly by, I remember the days when summer would never end and the Holidays seemed so far away.  Well Halloween in on Friday and Christmas is only 60 days away, that's right 60 days and counting, I better start a list and start checking it twice.  Wait a minute there's another Holiday in there, isn't there??? Oh yes, Thanksgiving is coming and I have already started to plan the big day.  This year Tyler's parents and his brother and family will be coming into town which means Tyler and I will be hosting Thanksgiving dinner, we very excited to have them. 

In the last six weeks we have been to Michigan, The Poconos, The Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze, and Utah enjoy the pictures.  

Michigan.
Chase love's playing on the computer, especially with Papa
Chase and Keira pushing their strollers
Tyler's family made arraignments in order for all of us to take a bike ride, we had a great time and as you can tell Chase was tuckered out. 

Poconos.
We left our camera home but you can enjoy pictures here, here, here, and here.
Thanks to the Gardner's for a great weekend.

The Great Jack O'Lantern Blaze.
Thanks to our good friend Ashley, Chase and I were able to accompany her and her son Eliot to the Blaze this year.  It's amazing what they can do with a pumpkin, giving I can barely carve two eyes a nose and a mouth.  If you get the chances you should go, it's absolutely worth it.  Pictures don't exactly turn out well but here are a few that happened by chances.

Me, Chase, Ashley and Eliot

I figured I'd wait and blog about Utah later this week, ok no promises but I'll try.  

One last thing, Tyler, Chase and I would like welcome the newest members to Christensen family. Lleyton Scott was born on September 16th (I know we are a little late but welcome), and Soren Ryder was born on September 29th.  

Also, Congratulation to Bailey who was baptized on Sunday, we are very proud of you.
