Tis' the time to change seasons!

I am so excited for the changing of seasons! Even though we had snow this week, I know Autumn is in there somewhere! I love everything about Autumn! Sweaters, Hot Wassail, Boots, Cozyness, Leaves, Pumpkin, Pumpkin, Pumpkin, Turkeys, oh and I could go on and on! 



She loves loves loves, being outside! 



She is oh so beautiful!


We are constantly under attack by rabbits! There are SO MANY. I will look out a couple times a day and see them just sitting, pondering, wondering where all this crap came from that overtook their place of residence! McKell, of course, loves to watch them.


McKell has gotten even trickier in the things she does. Now she will open the drawers, empty them, and then climb in and out of them! She is so funny! 



She is very good at what she does! : )


What the 4-wheeler does.....

This past week Heather and I met the boys over at Fillmore and when for a lovely 4-wheeler ride! The scenery was just absolutely gorgeous, but of course the only pictures we took were of our absolutely gorgeous baby girl : ) its funny how that happens! 






We had a really nice time and topped it off with a stop at Costa Vita! Yum!


McKell always wants my sparkly headband, so she finally was brave enough to model it! : )



This is what we woke up to on Friday morning! After a day and long into the night filled with rain, it turned into snow! I couldn't believe it! Mixed emotions about this...... 



Whenever I am working in the kitchen she certainly finds something to help pass the time! 



More time in the favorite drawer! : )





Love love love this little one! 

I can't believe how busy life gets, but how wonderful it can be at the same time. I am still working 1 to 2 days a week, and am barely able to keep up with my one class, but life is so good. I was able to take a moment out of the day and go to the Relief Society General Broadcast, and what a inspiration that can be to our lives. I am so grateful for the power of living prophets and apostles, and that we can leave being filled with the spirit and excited to keep going on with a smile and with the Lord's help. The Gospel is amazing and changes my life each and every day.

Motorcycles, Puppies and Dances!

McKell's 9 month: 9 lbs. 6 oz
                             65% length
                             68% weight to height
She is perfect!!!!


I will never be able to explain how much I love this face!!!! 


This of course, is a normal occurrence while eating, but we don't mind! 





We have been down to Grandpa Alden and Grandma Erma's picking raspberries! I can't believe how many raspberries bushes they have and nobody ever picks them except Roberta! I have been freezing them and just got done with some jam today! They are so so tasty! 


McKell had her first motorcycle ride this past week! This is a day that Clint has been dreaming of for his whole life, taking his girl on a motorcyle ride, and she loved it! 




She kept making these funny sounds and squealing, but of course not as much when I pulled out the camera, but it was so super cute!



So this past weekend I was able to help Katherine get ready for her first dance. Oh my. I am getting old I guess! We went dress shopping a couple weeks ago and found this beaut on a great deal! 
Of course, these pictures don't do her justice, because the lighting in the house is so funny, but I will get Dad's and post them! Gorgeous Gorgeous Girl! 


This really was so hard for me, when Katherine walked out that door, I started to bawl! I love this girl with all my heart and she is truly my best friend! I don't know what I would do without her! I felt like my own daughter was going on her first dance! I will definitely be a mess when it is McKell's turn!

The next few picutres are from Clint's phone that were taken over the past few weeks. He always gets really great pictures!!



During my first week of work, I asked Clint to send me some pictures of them because I was having a hard time being away from them, and these are what he sent! You can only imagine how they brightened my day.




She has been pulling quite the faces lately!



Off to work at 4:30 am! Clint has been so good to get up with me and make sure I get out the door with a full belly and a smile!



Clint and I found this hilarious card! I love it so much! 


I totally forgot to put these pictures on from a week or so ago. These are from Jake's wedding day. It was such a beautiful day, no one could have asked for better. They were married in Manti, and then we headed to Lindon for this reception, it was such a gorgeous and romantic place! 


Woodbury Farms


I can't get over how romantic it truly was! 




Savannah Rogers' dog had puppies and so we thought we would take McKell over to see them! She LOVED them and that is putting it lightly! She was oh so cute with them! 




I wish they would stay this size! I want one!


One day while it was raining, Clint came in with his hood on, and this is the face that he got followed by crying....... haha



That lip is constantly coming out! : ) 


Oh MY!!!!!! hahahahaha


Owning that swing! : )


Looking so big with her shoes on! 


Watching Dad pull the stickers, no umbrella needed this time! : )


I'm gonna get cha!!!! 


That is a honker!!!!!!!! : )
