Four Weekends

We have been very busy these last few weekends.

Weekend #1

 The weekend of September 30th-October 2nd we went to a cabin in Heber.

The cabin is Katie's grandparents.  Taylor and Katie were kind enough to invite us along with Joey and Amanda.

 It was such a pretty time of year, right when the leaves were starting to change over.  I LOVE fall.

We did a lot of laughing, ping pong, shopping, eating, and just hanging out.

It was a great time.  Thanks again for the invite! 

Weekend #2

 We went to Vegas the weekend of October 6th-9th.  We went with Braden/Chelsea, Wade/Sharidan, and Mike/Natalie. We mainly went to go and enjoy Blink 182 and My Chemical Romance.

 The concert was outside and we were not aware of this. My poor body was freezing with just a tank top. It was such a fun concert though! Rodger knew all the words to every song.....me on the other hand, knew about 5 songs.

 The girls.  Rodger was kind enough and took his shirt off so I wouldn't turn purple.  He's so sweet.

 Chelsea, Sharidan, Natalie, and Me.

 Most Everyone-Minus Mike.

 We went to Club Tao in The Venetian.  Yes, this would be the same club Ms. Kim Kardashian went to for her bachelorette party.  You should be jealous.  We had VIP passes and walked right on through everyone standing in line.  We felt pretty important.

The club was pure chaos!  I was getting so claustrophobic I wanted to die.  We got down and danced, and then left about an hour and a half later.  I couldn't take it anymore, they pack those places to the max.

 The view was gorgeous though.

Weekend #3

 It was Gabrielle's birthday.  It landed on Saturday October 15th.  I made a brilliant idea and thought we should head up to my dad's cabin in Eden.  We had four couples total and had a great time.

We played touch football, games, ping pong, watched a movie, hot tubed, made a birthday cake, and relaxed.

 It was a great weekend.  Glad I could celebrate your birth, Gabs.

Weekend #4

Friday, October 21st we were having a Halloween Party at our house.  It was with my friends from high school and their husbands.  I have the BEST husband ever, see reason why below.

I leave the following "To Do" List Friday morning for Rodger to complete.

I leave for work.

I come home to a beautiful freshly mowed front & back lawn, and clean clean home.

For the record, I have never done this request in our marriage before.

Anyways, he really is a sweet, caring, helpful, loving boy.  Thanks babe, you rock and roll.

 We were quite lazy this year with our Halloween costumes.

Rodger=Broom.

 Me=Witch

 So that I could ride him. :)

Lindsay, Ben, and Porter.  Porter wouldn't put on his cute Spiderman costume. 

 Michael and Abbie.  They were "Cloudy, with a chance of rain."

Cole and Gabrielle 

Alex and Kelsey

We missed those that couldn't make it!

We played a bundle of fun games.  As you can see above, we played the "Donut" Game.

 Abbie and Rodger won.  Only because they had the small blueberry donuts.

I LOVE my friends.  I'm glad we could all find a time to get together to play.  Next up will probably be a Christmas Party, and it'll be here sooner than we know it.

This last weekend I spent a lot of time with the new, Charley.  She is seriously so sweet and it gives me the itch to want one....but then I realize how much I love my life right now, and I'm not ready quite yet.

Here is Sarah and I holding our new little babies.  Keat took the picture on my phone, the reason why it is so blurry.

 

Rodger with his new little niece.  He wouldn't smile for the camera.

 

Ava holding Char

 My dad with both his girls.  Caroline would not hold Charley, she is not much of a fan of babies.

 

As you can see from above, we have been very busy, not only with personal life but with work as well.  I can't even breathe when I'm at work, but I am not complaining.  I love it.  Rodger's work has slowed down a bit, due to school beginning, but it is picking right back up.  We are blessed with such good jobs, and most importantly, ones that we love.

Life is very good.
