Lots of stuff

First of all it has been a LONG time since my last post for which I am very sorry. I have been meaning to do this for awhile, but of course never got around to it. A LOT has changed in my life over the past few weeks. The biggest change was that I was called to be YW President. When I was called in and the bishop asked me I would accept this call, I started crying and asked him if he was SURE about this. So he said he was, and here I am. This week was my first week and my first lesson. I think it went okay, but of course I forgot to remind the other girls (mia maid and beehive pres.) about BYC so me and the laurel pres went alone. OOPS! I guess I will eventually get the hang of it. Anyway, this is what I am feeling like these days. I know, I know, it is a really hot picture. I can't help it!

Also the other day we were getting Kace ready for school when I noticed that Tydon was outside on the deck in Nate's "spot" and he was holding himself. I then noticed his diaper right by the door. Sure enough there was Ty PEEING (or watering the rose bush as Nate says) just like his FATHER! AHHHHH, I had to call Nate right up and he LOVED it. Don't worry I am not ready to start potty training just because of this one incident.

One more thing, my sis-in-law Mel started this business. She is making tutus and onesies that are super cute so check it out! www.cuteobsessionsbymel.etsy.com.

Also Heidi made a very nice post about me as her sister so if you want to read all about ME check it out here. You may have to scroll down a few posts, but all of her posts are pretty entertaining, so you may like them. :)

Oh and RISE AND SHOUT for rivalry week. For the U fans out there, you know who you are, HARLINE IS STILL OPEN!!! and 4th and 18.....enough said haha

Trick or Treat

Kace was so excited for Halloween this year, which made it extra fun for me. Ty was also excited once he saw his costume. He would run to it and look at it and make superman sounds (a little different from the caveman sounds we are used to hearing, although he IS starting-finally-to say many more words so that is nice). We started out evening out by going trick or treating to people's houses. We went to some of the people in our ward that wouldn't be attending the trunk or treat. They really liked that.

Ty would do the 'wiggle dance' at each house and grab his pumpkin and run to the door. It was so funny :) They both learned that at the houses you can take almost a handfull of candy and at the trunk or treat you are limited to just one. Ty had a hard time grasping that concept and I ended up dragging him away from the 'trunks'.

Kace really wanted to say, "trick or treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat. If you don't, I don't care, I'll pull down your underwear" I can't believe that saying is still around. Don't worry he just said in the car and the next day at Great-grandma Andrew's. She informed him that she didn't think he would be able to get to her underwear!!

Overall we had a great time and of course got way TOO much candy. We spent the day yesterday dividing it into piles (candy bars, tootsie rolls, smarties, suckers, etc)-we have been busy or would have done it earlier. Kace informed me he didn't need my help this year and that he could do it himself. Oh, MAN I love the dividing into piles part.

I wasn't going to bring candy to the trunk or treat because I was feeling scroogish and just wanted to take the kids on their rounds and leave. BUT of course I started feeling guilty and went to the store at about 4:30 to get some candy. I am glad I did, because it seemed like a lot of people were having the same ideas (about not bringing candy and bringing their kids and leaving). Kace liked passing the candy out anyway.
