Happy Thanksgiving

We wanted to take a nice picture for cards, but I don't think we were to successful, some of them are cute though.

Adam's Birthday Surprise

It was Adam's 30th birthday a couple of weeks ago. He was actually traveling from Madrid on his birthday, so we celebrated it the next day. His brother, Clark, came down from NYC with 2 of his friends and visited Adam for a couple of hours. Adam was so happy to see his brother. When he left, Elle said goodbye and told Clark that it was nice to meet him!? Where does she come up with this stuff? She is already dish'n out the Jewish/Mormon guilt! Clark come see us again!

Talent Show

I was called into the Primary Presidency 2 weeks ago. I was excited but it was 1 week before there was to be a talent show for all the primary kids. Not much had been planned, but I think we pulled it off. Elle did "ballet" to the Nutcracker. Basically, she just jumped around the stage. It was so cute! I was so sad we forgot the video camera:(

This is a Westie

To answer Jocee's question, a Westie is short for West Highland White Terrier. I was in a weird mood one day and next thing I know, I have a dog in my car! I have no idea what I was thinking. She is a good dog, but a puppy is like another child! She is still in her awkward stage, but she will get a lot more hair and she will grow into her ears, hopefully. She keeps me company when Adam is out of town, which is often. I wish she was a nanny or a maid, like Jocee thought, but she is a DOG!!!

Starting Preschool

In mid-October, Elle started her new year of preschool. She was beyond excited to start. Ava was sad to see her go, but now I think she has begun to like her alone time with Mom.

Halloween Fun

We had so much fun this Halloween. Gram came to town for a few days and then we had 3 Halloween parties! Elle was in heaven. It is all over now, we have even eaten all the candy!
