SNOW, SNOW, SNOW

It started snowing at 5am this morning. I know this because this is Charlees new wake-up time. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! So I put on her snow suit and we went outside for a while before I had to go to scouts. I only got a few pictures before the battery died, but she had a blast!

Halloween '08

This year I made Charlee a poodle skirt for Halloween. When I put it on her she would swing her hips from side to side. It was a little long but she still looked so cute in it. Here she is showing off her trick or treat ghost. She did not know what to think at first about trick or treating but them she got the hang of it. We went to our wards trunk r treat at 5pm then over to Erlines ward at 6pm. She made a nice haul. Of course Lynn and I will help her eat it all.

Charlee with her most favorite person in the world, Aunt Erline.

Charlee with her Grandma Strader. It was fun to have her here this year.

Punkin Patch

Jeff and Barbara and their boys, Karter and Karson came down for a visit last weekend. We all went to Cornbellys Pumpkin Patch at Thanksgiving Point in Lehi. It was a lot of fun.
There was a buttload of slides there.

Karson and Charlee.

This is my favorite picture of Karson that I got. He is sooo smiley!!!

Charlee on Lynns shoulders. It is not a photo session unless Char does her "stink eye".

We Also Sing! Performance

Saturday was my chior performance. What an awesome and spiritual experience. It was so cool to be able to sing in The Tabernacle. To sit in seats that The Mormon Tabernacle Chior sit in. To perform in a building where so many great prophets and people have stood and spoke. It was just so neat. It was accually my first time, ever, in the tabernacle and I can't wait to do it again next year. I didn't think we could take pictures so I did not take my camera and Lynn did not bring it to the performance. I really regret that. Some guy did go around and take lots of pictures and I guess our director will post them on the blog so as soon as I have some pictures I will post them. It was just so much fun to be a part of a chior again!!!

Oh! Sweet Sadie Art and Gift Show

Ok, I am still trying to figure out how to do all this fancy stuff on my computer and I think I figured it out! Yay!

Anyway, this is an awsome gift show. There were two fall shows and I went to both of them. They have some of the cutest stuff. I bought Charlee a pillowcase dress and two cute barretts. One had a ladybug made out of ribbon and one was a cupcake made out of ribbon. I also purchased some yummy homemade chicken noodle soup and homemade rolls, home made salsa and some chocolates that were sooooo good. I also got some cute magnets from one of my favorite Etsy shops, Isabells Umberella. Her link to her shop is http://www.isabellsumbrella.etsy.com/. I have several of her prints and stationery and I LOVE her stuff. I also got a cook book called "The Food Nanny Rescues Dinner" by Liz Edmunds. It is a cookbook aimed at getting families to eat dinner together at the table "and reap the benefits of a stronger family bond." Me, my mom and Erline accually met her and her daughter and they were so nice. And the recipes are really good, too. Her link is http://www.thefoodnanny.com/. I also got a thing that holds crayons and rolls up for Char for Christmas and a hand made bib! Whew, that is a lot of stuff.

I guess what I am really trying to say is that there is sooooo much at this gift show, I could do all my Christmas shopping in one place. The add above is for their upcoming Holiday showcase. I can't wait to go and they usually have them in really cool custom homes. Their website has a lot more information on the vendors and links to some of them that you can buy from online if you do not live here. Oh! Sweet Sadie does a lot of contests the week before the shows,too. I entered most of them for the fall shows. I did not win any but it was still fun to learn more about the artists and a chance to win something. There website is http://www.ohsweetsadie.com/.

I would love to go to all three but I don't think Lynn would like that very much.
