I wanna be a ROCK STAR!!

Forever Kenzie has been telling us that she wants to be a princess when she grows up. She also wants to marry Daddy. She is still sure that she will be marrying daddy, but the occupation has changed. Lately (I don't know where this came from) Kenzie has decided that she wants to be a "Rock Star" like "Miley Cyrus". She has always loved to sing, but this rock star thing is new. I find her singing in her microphone all the time. She also tries to bob her head "like a rock star" every time music comes on. As parents, do you help your kid achieve their dreams as a "rock star" or not??? That's my question. Here is a video of her talking about being a rock star.

Levi's Acrobatic Talents

At 8 weeks old, Bryce already has Levi doing tricks!

Levi at 8 weeks

Levi turns 8 weeks tomorrow. It goes by SO fast. I guess now I have to graduate from "weeks" and start calling him a 2 month old. So sad :( As least he get's cuter everyday.

Reflection of Life

Today I went to my old bosses funeral. Chuck Warner was his name. He was my boss at Collision Safety Engineering for 6 years. He was such an amazing man. Knowing I would be going today, yesterday I was reflecting on the influence he had on the people who knew him. As well as the accomplishments he had achieved in this life. He has successfully created a multi-million dollar buisness, he had his PhD, he had 11 children, he was so strong in the gospel.....and he was an amazing teacher. He was a professor at BYU for quite some time before he started CSE (his company). He also always found time to play. He loved the outdoors and was always up for an adventure. When thinking of all his accomplishments, I thought about how he had influenced my life. He always pushed me to work hard. He also always believed I would be able to finish a project and make a deadline. He was hard to please at times, but when I came through he made me feel so proud. He truly cared about me as an individual, even though I was just his secretary. He had so many Christ life attributes. It really made me wonder where I stand and my influence on others. What am I doing to make a difference in other peoples lives? I came to the conclusion that I really have a lot of work to do. I can be of help to others more than I realize. Watching someone pass into the next life is always a good time to reflect on how short this life really is. There is so much for us to do in this life of good for our families and friends as well as our society. I hope that I can be a better more Christ like example like he was to me.

Still a princess everyday!

McKenzie has a friend Morgan that lives down the street. The other day they were playing in her room quietly, and when they came out they looked like this. Both of them STILL (it's been over a year now that McKenzie has had the obsession) love to dress up any time they are together.

Our Handsome Little Devil!

Before Church last week I couldn't help myself but to take some pics of Cache in his new suit. He is like his Daddy, he LOVES new clothes so he was strutting his stuff around the house, and I had to capture it!

Trick or Treating

Here are the kids right before we went trick or treating. This was Cache's first year trick or treating and it was hillarious! He didn't quite understand why anyone would want to put the candy in the bucket. Eating it was so much better. Until he realized that he was getting ALOT of candy and couldn't eat it fast enough before he got more. Then he just started a system that went like this...candy in right hand, new candy in left had get's transferred to right hand - right hand candy goes into bucket. Left hand candy gets opened up until next house where it will be tranferred to right hand and old right hand candy to bucket. When we got home, there was a ton of opened candy barely touched as he didn't have much time to eat it before he got more. On top of everything else, we got to run down the sidewalk and stay outside for a VERY long time. He was a happy little boy! As for Levi, Bryce asked me why in the world would we put him in a costume when he wasn't even going. I answered "for all the people who come here to trick or treat". He still thought it was ridiculous....men just don't understand ;)

Pumpkin Carving

Here is our pumpkin carving extravaganza. As you can see from our blog, we had the best fall season ever. It seems like it was jam packed with fun activities.

The Annual Wadley Farms Bash!

Our little Levi at 5 weeks old

McKenzie & Lily

We had so much fun at the halloween party! Thanks Jess and Sasha for inviting us again.

Last hike of the season

Last Sunday we went up Payson Canyon and went on a short hike. The kids had a blast and so did we. When we went back to the car McKenzie was so sad. She kept asking to find another hike. We're hoping this little outdoors girl keeps it up! She sure is girly, but she loves the important things.....hiking, biking, running, fishing.....well the important things to us anyway. :)

Halloween Party Time!

This is Kenzie and Cache at our cousins costume party! It was so fun seeing the chaos of all the kids high on sugar!

The Big Red Barn

We went to the Big Red Barn again this year. It is SO fun for the little kids. They get to take a hayride to the pumpkin patch, then pick our their pumpkins then we go back to the barn for apple cidar, donuts and homemade icecream. Such a fun tradition!!
