Pumpkin Carving

Jon's creation








Great Grandma (GG) and Grandpa Walker came down to spend the day with us. They brought some pumpkins to carve with the boys. We love spending holidays with them and are very grateful to have them near us.


Waiting for our Halloween train ride at a great house in Lindon.

Halloween Take Two

Our friends Halloween party was a riot. Thanks to the Lindley's who let us all invade their home for a good cause. Everyone did a great job with their costumes and the food was fantastic.



Life in Lehi would be quite dull without my girls! I must say that WE made the party!!! Leslie I still think you are a great Mafia host and the # 1 player is Jess Lindley by my vote. Skye I want the truth about where you were last week because the chest was a little too believable.




Best Costume goes to Britney and Josh Shultz for their Kangaroo.



Ben and Jess Lindley



Look at those Hemming's. Leslie you should really grow out your hair lol!



The Greer's






I am glad Heather could be my date for most of the night since Jon was at the sad BYU game. You go Head Cheerleader. I really thought the Jazz dancer should of come out in you a little more.


Audrey and Michael. Strange pair but we make it work.

Halloween Take One

We hosted a little Halloween party at our house for our family the other night. We have decided to move away from the big haunted house party and keep it simple. It was a lot of fun and everyone dressed up.


Mom and Dad. My dad is a Bay Area taxi driver but does resemble a few others.




My Grandpa Walker as Michael and my Grandma came as his Doctor.

Timpanogos Cave

My parents convinced us to go with them to hike up to Timpanogos Cave on Saturday since it was such a beautiful day. We hiked the 1 1/2 miles up and survived. The caves were pretty cool but the boys lost interest after we waited so long for our tour. My Uncle Scott and Aunt Shelly joined us so they always add a lot of fun to whatever we are doing.

Gardner Village

I got a surprise phone call from my dearest friend Jessica Carr letting me know that she was in town and wanted to see us. My Mom, Steph, Jess and her little boy Ben joined us at Gardner village to enjoy a nice warm fall afternoon. I love seeing Jess just in person but I still love our almost daily phone conversations. She is a doll and I love her dearly.


Beckham just before he took a nose dive right into the duck pond. Poor little boy lost his footing and did a somersault hitting his head on the rocks and landing splat into the cold yucky water.

Pumpkin Patch

Today Beckham's preschool took a field trip to the Vineyard pumpkin patch. We had fun making our way through the maze. Beck loved showing me the way. We picked out great pumpkins and had a fun morning with friends.

Meet Flo

We have a new visitor in our home that floats above the ground looking out Beck's window to the street. I like to think she is the same Flo ghost that we hunted in the Ogden graveyard in our teenage years. She seems to be a very friendly ghost so stop by and see for your self.

Jon and I have admired a home in Provo that goes all out at Halloween. The home has everything moving on motors and things popping up out of coffins and talking. Flow also floated at this home and we have envied her for years. So this was the year that Jon spent many weeks creating our very own Flow. Jon you have really outdone yourself and I love Flo very much. Halloween is great!



This is the best picture from outside I got.

Fall, Friends, Farm, Fun

We spent a great fall day at Wheeler Farm. Thanks to the Haynie's, Hemming's, Gale's and Castleton's. Life would be dull without these pals.

Ira Robert Turns Two

Our little Baby I turned two today. Soon he will no longer be our little baby. He is such a fun little boy and makes our family very happy and keeps us all laughing. We spent the weekend in St George and celebrated our Ira's birthday there. He got to swim, jump, play at the park and drink all the baba's he wanted all day long.

* When you ask Ira a question that he agrees with, he will dramatically nod his head yes with no words spoken.
* Always wants to jump high. He tells me several times a day that he is going to jump high Mom. Really he jumps off everything and anything.
* Ira loves to be at his brothers side. He does everything with Beck and Beck is so good to him and watches out for him. Actually Ira came to Beck's rescue at the park when a little bully was bugging Beck. Ira put the bully right in his place.
* Anything I ask the boys to do Ira always responds "I want to Mom"
* Still loves his baba. I don't have any plans to take it away since that is the only thing good he eats. He is so picky thus making him a skinny skinny guy.
* His hair is a hit. I am stopped everyday for people to feel his hair.
* Ira loves to take showers. He could spend hours by himself standing under the running water.
* " I want to watch a show Mom" is a common phrase in our home. Of course he really only likes Go Diego Go. He follows right along with the show doing as they say.
* Hates nursery
* Very very busy boy and does not sit for very long.
* Communicates very well, at least I understand him.
* Gives kisses and loves and likes to say his prayers and sing the ABC song.
* LOVES books. He could have me read a book to him all day long. On each page he always asks what every little thing is on the page.
