While we were in Idaho over the summer, Jamie was sure to get family pictures taken before another son left for two years. I love it when she does this, because it means I can mooch off of her and she is kind enough to let me. We got some lovely pictures of the family, despite the wind and sleepy two year old boys. I still can't believe that they are as big as they are! Three years old is coming too quickly.

 |
| The boys got to watch a couple of episodes of TMNT for Family Home Evening. All three of them loved it. |
 |
| Benji and Milo are obsessed with the Ninja Turtles! |
 |
| It never gets old. :) |
 |
| "Momma, where is Milo?" |
 |
 |
| Benji took quite a fall at the park and landed right on his face. Poor guy! |
 |
| I was doing dishes and turned around to find my sweet boys taking a little "nap" on the kitchen floor. The are very patient with me. :) |
 |
 |
 |
| The boys found a Zen garden at Josh's school and put it to good use. |
 |
| A game night with friends! It is a rare event when we can all get together, but we love it when it happens! |
 |
| The Emergency preparedness fair had some pretty awesome attractions! |
 |
| The boys got to sit in and explore an ambulance, firetruck, and police car. They had a blast! |
 |
| I'm crossing my fingers that this is the only time they get to ride in the back of a police car. |
 |
| Benji loved the fire truck. |
 |
| A trip to the temple is always a good idea. |
 |
 |
| We love our happy boys. |
 |
| Definitely my favorite Super Mario brothers. |
 |
 |
| The boys wanted to document their beautiful bathtub drawings. |
 |
| And they crack me up! This is their "hold still like a statue on 'Little Einsteins' pose". |
 |
| As I was prepping dinner, I threw a cup of rice into the pot and watched as hundreds of little bugs floated to the top. YUCK! |
 |
| Is it just an Arizona thing? Eww. YUCK! I will always look twice with my rice. |
 |
| Benji and Milo were SO excited about their Blue tongues! |
 |
 |
| The boys were thoroughly entertained at Walmart with Mater and Lightning Maqueem. |
 |
| Hide and seek at Walmart makes the time go faster...for some of us. |
 |
| Josh and I checked on the boys before heading to bed and this is how we found them. :) SO precious. |
 |
| We got to go to the aquarium with Ty and we had a blast. |
 |
 |
 |
| We got a nice quick visit in with Ty and Amanda while they were down here for her interview at Midwestern. It would be awesome if they got to live closer to us! |
 |
 |
| A quick car ride with Dad to get the mail. |
 |
| Ready to read some bedtime stories. |
 |
| Josh went Scorpion hunting and got about 20 of them, just in our backyard! |
 |
| Josh's awesome pumpkin. He is the carving champion! |
 |
Rambatan, for the win! We
loved trying this new fruit.
|
 |
| Thanks for the fun Frankenstein masks, Nanna! |
 |
| We love dressing up for Halloween! |
 |
| Milo, looking spooky. |
 |
| Benji and Milo, I mean, Superman and Batman, had a blast walking down Mainstreet in Mesa for free candy. |
 |
| And I had a blast watching them. Halloween with two year olds is SO much fun! |
 |
| But of course, every super hero needs a break for a nutritious snack. :) |
 |
| A nice date to the temple and In n' Out makes for a perfect Saturday. |
 |
 |
| Benji and Milo, all pumped up for the ward party! |
 |
A low quality photo to capture
our high quality night.
Happy Halloween!
|
 |
| Their favorite part about trick or treating was all of the lawn decorations. |
 |
| And he was very thrilled to find a boy toy amidst the dolls in Nursery. |
 |
| Benji LOVES his spkey hair. |
 |
| They wanted to walk home together. |
 |
| It doesn't get any cuter than this. |
 |
| They walked the whole way home, hand in hand. |
