Thanksgiving 2010

We spent thanksgiving this year in Vernal with Jesse's family. We had a good weekend, it was pretty low key but nice. As soon as we got to Jesse's house we decided that we would drop the news that I was pregnant especially since everyone had already speculated that I was. So at the first chance of them questioning me about it I told them to go and ask Mylee and she would tell them whether I was or not, and so of course she told them that I was. It was no big surprise because they all new that we had been trying but they were all still really excited. We had thanksgiving dinner at Grandma Rose's house and the food was delicious! We went to Lisa's and played games while the kids played and watched movies. Mylee and Lexi were being really silly that night, they decided to get into all the pies without anyone knowing, they had thought they were being pretty sneaky. After they got there sugar high they were upstairs jumping all over the beds hugging and laughing. It was really funny and we had a lot of fun.

We also did the Amazing Race again and Jesse and I were the winners again for the second time in a row. There was a little controversy about us winning but we one it FAIR and square. We had a great weekend.

Strawberry Pinnacles

We spent a night at the Strawberry Pinnacles for the Bigalow Reunion. We had a lot of fun visiting with family, playing games, playing outside, and just being together. Mylee loves to hang out with her cousins so she always stays very busy playing around.

Halloween fun 2010

This year it was so much fun doing all the Halloween stuff with Mylee she was excited for everything we did and really got it. I have been so excited to start all the holidays this year because she is at such a good age. She loved all the activities we did.

Every year in the fall my mom and sisters come up and we take the kids to Gardiner Village it is so fun because they have it all decorated for Halloween, we cruise through the shops, look at all the witches, let the kids have pony rides, and have lunch. This year it was really crowded so we didn't stay as long but it was still a lot of fun.

While Jesse was out of town to a Broncos game Mylee and I went to corn belly's at thanksgiving point with Beau, Jill, and Lexi. They girls had so much fun. They jumped on the big pillows, got pulled from tractor in little cows, went down the slides, ate Carmel apples, and we did the corn maze. Mylee loved the corn maze we bought them some flashlights and she thought it was so fun thinking that we were lost and had to find our way out. They had some little kids corn mazes to that were really small she loved playing in. I would say that was probably her favorite thing there. We had so much fun that will definitely be something we do every year.

We had a lot of fun carving pumpkins this year. Mylee even helped Jesse clean the pumpkins out, helped poke holes in the pumpkins, and put stickers on them. She loved when we got the candles in them and got to see them light up.

We decided one night to make some homemade Halloween sugar cookies, Mylee had so much fun using the cookie cutters and mixing the food coloring in the frosting. Luckily she had a lot of fun doing it because the end result didn't turn out the greatest...they weren't very good.

I take Mylee to story time at the library every week. Her story time teacher let all the kids come dressed up in there Halloween costumes which was a lot of fun. They danced to some Halloween music, she told a Halloween story, and they also got to trick or treat around the library.

This year for Halloween Mylee wanted to be a bumble bee...she was so cute and loved dressing up. Beau, Jill, and Lexi came over so Mylee and Lexi could trick or treat together. Jill made some yummy soup to eat and then we took the girls trick or treating, they only went to a few homes because the weather was so crappy it was raining and was really cold. Luckily we had taken Mylee to our ward trunk or treat the night before so she was able to get the majority of her candy there.
