Aloha

Brady's parents took us on an amazing vacation to Hawaii this January. We stayed in Ko Olina on Oahu at a beautiful resort.

 Brie did really well on the flights. We were able to calm her right down if she ever got fussy and she slept in my arms a lot. 

 This is the lagoon in front of our resort. It was so beautiful and even had some good snorkeling areas.

 We spent a day on the north shore getting yummy food, boogie boarding in some serious waves, and watching surf competitions.

 We went to a Luau one night which was pretty neat.

 Snorkeling at Shark's Cove

Another day we went to the Dole pineapple plantation to get a dole whip, visited the Laie Temple, and drove around my old stomping grounds at BYU-H.

 Our last night we stayed at the hotel that the Pro-Bowl players stay at. This is their practice field. They came the week after us.

I also tried some Stand Up Paddleboarding there.

We had such a great time and were so glad to be there with Tom and Annette & Shane and Amy.

Thank you for the wonderful trip and  helping us with Brielle, Tom and Annette!

Love the Fall and Halloween!

We had so much fun this October. After partying in Park City, we came back and first went to the corn maze in Twin Falls. It was a gorgeous evening.

 We enjoyed hot cocoa and homemade pumpkin doughnut holes when we finally made it out of there.

 Brex painted his pumpkin green and then we mod podged mike wizousky's face on to it.

 He really loved his pumpkin.

 We played at Hop2It for the first time for Aisley's birthday.

 We went to the Harmony Rd Park with Grandpa and fed the animals. Brex chased a duck for a few minutes with cereal in hand yelling eat, eat, eat.

 See the pretzel in the chicken's mouth? I'm surprised Brex didn't get a finger pecked off.

 We went to Linder Farm's pumpkin patch in Kuna.

 The bunny amazingly got away unsquished.

 Playing in the corn kernels

 We also went to Banberry's Pumpkin Patch in Twin Falls and rode on a hayride, did a straw maze, rode down slides, pumpkin bowled, and slingshotted pumpkins (Brady hit a sign and won a medium size pumpkin, from which we carved Mario (but I didn't take a picture))

 I just love this picture

 She did not want to be a cat.

Here is her mushroom hat without the poka dots or outfit.

 And here is her princess peach costume that she wore on Halloween.

 This was at our ward Harvest Party the Saturday before Halloween. Brex had a blast at it with all the carnival games and understanding trick or treating for the first time. Google images of Toadette if you are confused about who Brielle is.

 So much candy!! Myla is the little monster in the background, so cute!

 Totally forgot that a carved a minion pumpkin last year too. whoops.
