Halloween Party.

We had a Halloween scavenger hunt... so much fun. 

 lots of thing to find like a tomb stone, a bouquet of dead flowers, a funny street sign...

take a picture with a police officer, find orange crayons, mummify a stranger with toilet paper...

 find the #13, kiss a random windshield, buy a small fry and share with everyone in car...

 find a black cat, have a Chinese fire drill, feed a duck, get a price on a casket, etc...

 Can you guess what I was??? probably not so I'll just tell you... a Witch

oh yeah, can't forget the picture with Frankenstein

What a great party!

3 Months Old!!!

Time flies too fast.  I can't believe he is already been around for 3 amazing months.  Tait is a bundle of joy that I get to spend all of my days with.  He smile, giggles, and coos now. Don't you worry he still eat, sleeps and poops, a LOT :O) Even after only 3 months I can't imagine what life was like without him.

 He is getting so big

We have to show his favorite pass time, Tummy time or playing on the floor with his brightly colored toys.

Pumpkin Patch

I really wanted to go hunting for the perfect pumpkin but sometimes I forget how much work it is to take the baby out. By the time we got out the door Tait was already getting a little grumpy so the trip was short and sweet. (If it were up to Doug our trips would always be this way!)

 Look at all those pumpkins... now to find the perfect one!

I can't get enough of those pouty lips

Baby Shower

Some of our wonderful friends from the bank threw Tait a baby shower! We have so much fun going to the bank anyways but this was no exception.  We got to sit and chat a while, while gloating on the adorable main attraction, baby Tait.

 Tait really had to work hard to entertain Randy but at the same time Randy was a hoot!

 Such a sweet lady Mrs. Anne and Taiters

Cherie holding the one and only.

Thank you my Murray Family!!! We Love You ALL!!!

Yay for Birthday Weekends!

 We went for a fantastic get away with some friend over my birthday.  

It was the perfect weekend for a drive up the canyon because of the fall colors.

 We did a lot of four wheeling

 Enjoyed the beautiful scenery

 We loved riding the zip line

 We went hiking to a little reservoir with everyone but had to turn around pretty quickly because of the rain.

The cabin looked out on this little pond, it was beautiful but ice cold at the same time. 

The 1 standing rule for playing in the lake was, if you push someone in, they get to push you in also.

 Wowzers, this was the tallest rope swing I have ever seen. 

Some lucky person had to climb up 30 feet in the pine trees to hang it up.

 It has been so long since I've seen a tier swing.  He wasn't happy but we had to get at least one picture in it.

and of course we had to go shooting for Doug. 

What a great weekend it was with lots of sleeping in, great food, fun games, 

lots of friends, and the wild out doors. Thanks to all who spent it with us!

Red vs Blue

 They look so awesome in there Red Whit and Black!

 I guess I'll root for them too

 Daddy really gets into the game....

and so does baby... hahaha

 We're happy Red won but wish it was more of a fight for the win.

Good Game!

Planking & Owling

 Doug's young men have this funny thing they call planking and owling that they do in parks or basically anywhere they go.  We were up the canon and thought it would be funny to do and take lots of pictures to show them... so here ya go.

 Doug was on this crazy steep hill side and almost went down the hill.

 Can you tell that this is the owling??? How dorky can this get???

 that's the best looking owl I've ever seen :O)

pretty funny, huh!

Tait's first big day

 They look so sharp in there matching salmon tie and shirt.

 Great Grandma & Grandpa Simmonds

 I love this picture!

 I haven't had a picture with my siblings for a long time

Michelle, Krystal, Krystal & Spencer

 Dougs cute family

Grandpa Dave, Crystal, Steve, Grandma Cathie and Lily

Lindsey & Lance

You can't see it in the picture but Lindsey is super preggers with baby Karte/

  Hopefully he comes to visit us by Monday! 

Yay for Baby Karter!!!

We go to the Beach

 My nice loves coming in town because we go to the Beach! AKA Day Brake Lake

She will call for days if she knows they are coming to ask if we can go.

 Have you noticed yet that Daddy always has Taiters??? Don't call him a baby hog to his face but he is a baby hog. I absolutely love it! Daddy is gone all day at work so he should be able to hold Tait ALL he wants when he gets home.

 Mercedes eating chips and Krystal peeling oranges for Spencer

 Alex playing in the water

 Christina  loves being at the beach!

 Mercedes can build an awesome sand castle.

 And she has a pretty dang cute smile

Daddies make the best pillows ever.

Alex is pretty tuckered out after a long day in the sun.

 She totally looks like she belongs at the park.

 Mom and Dad love spending time with the family

 I love being outside on a sunny day.

Michelle is the best life guard. We love having her around, definitely the life of any party!!!
