Mikayla loves (not so much) getting dressed.
Once she is in the clothes she could probably wear them for a week if I let her!

My mom sent some very cute Winter dresses so I have to show them off just in case she somehow doesn't get her picture taken in them.

Thank you Grandma & Grandpa Thompson! She loves her new pink Cell phone too!


To the Great Women of the World:

BEWARE!!!!!!!!

Football is hazardous to your health! (or maybe just to mine!!!!)

If you ever thought you could get away from it......

stay at my house for a fall season....

Every Saturday (or whatever day) the lovely team of choice is playing

YOU may find yourself like me.....

realizing that your husbands Life for those 4+ hours (which may also include a pre/post game review) that your Husbands are NON Existent! I somehow seem to block this out every year until the blessed first game comes....and the season begins.....

"Jonathan, could you help get Mikayla"...

pause.....

(long pause)......

"WHAT????", says Jonathan as he pushes Pause on the already 5 minutes into the game and frustrated that he might miss the single play that every Man involved in the game will talk about the rest of the week.....

Ahhhh the life of a Football Widow.....

GGOOOOOOOOO BYU! (you can sense my excitement!)*

*Disclaimer-Sorry Babe...this the only way I can get excited for you and your Team!

Fall is one of my favorite seasons. I miss the traditions my family use to do like picking apples and sitting outside to eat dinner. But luckily there are always things I Love about this time of year...and of course everyday!

  • Mikayla's huge happy smile when she wakes up and then claps when she sees that I've come to pick her up.

  • Flower surprises from Jonathan.

  • The Crisp Fall Air.
  • Leaves Changing color.
  • Pumpkin pies & pumpkin cookies!
  • My family!
