I know it's about time...

All I have to say is I warned you all that I wouldn't be very good at this. I know that I do enjoy looking at everyone else's blogs but just don't get around to it. We have had some fun in learning to work and enjoy mother nature. The kids and I went to help Grandma Wakefield rake leaves and pick up walnuts off the ground. But first we had to take a few pictures before bagging all the leaves. I have to say I was impressed they spent 2 1/2 hours working before they completely quit.The girls are a joy to have in our home. Both are growing up so fast!
Our Ballroom Dancer, Witch, and scarecrow. This is a scary bunch without costume.
Do you ever feel like it just isn't your day? We have had a wonderful but busy fall. I love this season and it inspires me. It is a time to reflect on all that we have and that we are so blessed. I am so grateful for my tiniest treasures, even if they are having a not so great day!
I have to say I love my little boy he makes us laugh and is so cute!!!

Update on us--- Todd is still looking for work but we have been blessed to have had a few odd jobs here and there to keep us going. He is a High Counselor in our stake and I just got called to be Young Womens President in our ward. To say the least we are grateful for our friends and neighbors who take care of our kids every Sunday and sometimes during the week while we are at our meetings. I still love being home with my kids and being a mom and they love having their dad around a lot more. We are so blessed and love our life here as a family. We are excited for this holiday season and we will try to do better about updating our blog (Aaron). Thanks for your blogs that are so fun to read and look at.
