Liam! Quite the Guy!




Liam is quite the guy. Check out this picture. He is always laughing and having fun. Last night he wasn't feeling very well and decided to throw up all over a couple of times. He still isn't feeling well, but is feeling better. Poor guy went to bed early.

Brooke's Table


Brooke is working hard to make a table for Liam to play with his trains on. It has been in our garage for years and I am glad to see something is finally getting done with it.

One Cool Dad!


Liam thinks that this is his dad! It is quite the ego booster.

Misc. Pic's






Here are some misc. pictures. First, Brooke was watching some friends kids and took a cute picture of Liam and Whitney.

Second, a picture of Avery and I on my schools rock wall.

Third, when Brooke was sewing Avery's costume she had her stuff on the table. Liam took all her thread and put it in the candle jar. It was pretty funny!

Halloween






After being obsessed with Wicked for a few months Avery decided that she was going to be a witch for Halloween. Brooke took on the undertaking of sewing the dress. It turned out really nice. Brooke bought a pattern for Liam's Dalmation puppy costume, but it turned out to be the wrong size. Luckily, she borrowed one from a friend. Brooke's costume was pretty cool, she was Cruella Devil. She and Liam were quite the pair.

Our family went to the church for a trunk or treat, then went with some friends around the neighborhood.

The Designer Avery




Avery has been quite the little designer lately. She likes to dress her dog, Coconut. She will cut out fabric and make clothes for her. She and Brooke decided to dress Coconut in some of her outfits and take pictures.

Ward Talent Night



Our ward had a talent night. Avery and Brooke both played a musical number. Also, Avery signed a song with her Achievements Day group.

The Backyard




Here are some pictures of the backyard. I don't know if you can see it, but the home behind us painted their house. We really love the color (sense my sarcasm). It is cream, with blue trim. It looks like someone taped the trim with blue painters tape and didn't pull it off. But our yard is coming nicely.

Looking for the Great Pumpkin





Our family decided to look for the Great Pumpkin before Halloween. There is a pumpkin farm out in the country by our home. You can go out there and pick your own pumpkin, ride a horse and wagon, and feed the animals. Liam and Avery had a blast! Avery brought her friend Emily along.

Playhouse




We have been working really hard on the playhouse. Brooke made some curtains for the cupboards and I put in the sink. A friend from work had an old sink and gave it to me. Liam likes to play with it. We aren't getting much playing time in it lately because of the rain. Avery likes to sweep it up and keep it clean. She could spend hours out their in it.

Pictures





Here are some misc. pictures of Liam and I working on the playhouse, Liam and Avery at the library, and Liam at home.

Brady's Greatest Day of Church




Well, the great day has finally arrived - Liam gets to go to nursery. It is hard to believe that he is already that old (did I really say that, I sound old myself). Brooke was very reluctant to send him to the nursery, but a call to the nursery leaders help reassure her. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. Liam did great and really loved singing and snack time. Anyway Liam made it through his first day of nursery.

Avery's 1st Day of School



Avery is pretty excited to be entering the 4th grade. She has two half time teachers, Mrs. Rawling and Mrs. Redding. She is really enjoying it and even likes doing the homework, so far. She is still reading a ton, and was pretty excited because she read Harry Potter 5 in three days.

Brooke is feeling "Wicked"





Brooke couldn't get enough of Wicked, so she had to go again. She is quite the little groupie. She waited after the production to see Glinda and Elphaba, and even get Boq's autograph. What are we going to do with her?

Swimming




It was fun to go swim in the new pool in North Ogden. The kids had quite a fun time.

Lagoon






Thanks for the wonderful trip to Lagoon. The kids seemed to have a lot of fun. It was all Avery talked about for days. She is still talking about it.
