Readers Theatre

The 2nd grade sang a few songs for the parents, Isaac did great and didn't get all giggly.Then they read some plays and Isaac was the king and was very animated with his parts.
He was ticked after his play because the narrator skipped half of his parts. But we redeamed the day by checking him out of school early. He thought he scored big.
It was kind of sad because the little kid cute stuff is coming to a close. :( We will enjoy it while it's still here.

Classic Ferguson's

Travis was cracking everyone up so bad, it really set a great tone for taking the pictures. This was one of the first pictures that Ashely took and I think we were all caught so off gaurd, it was an awesome way to start out the night.
There is a whole lot of stuff going on in this one. The Nick, Heather, and Sab thing is so cute. I'm guessing that Travis invited McKayla to hug him or something and she was disgusted and I'm laughing at her. Isaac is in his own little world and C.C. is just all GQ!
Travis wanted a turn to choose a pose! He's so creative!
This one is just plain sweet, a cute snap shot.
AWWWWWW ! All so different!
I really love this one! It shows how sweet Travis really is to me.
Don't let the fire hydrant throw you off!
This is my all time favorite! I am totally laughing out loud every time I look at this one! It is so obvious that Isaac just pulled some silly stunt and he and C.C. are communicating about it. It is just so funny and totally captures our household daily. Isaac does or says something silly or naughty and everyone either laughs or parents. I love it though. Good times.
I'm so happy to have such a fun family! I love each and every member of my family, even the newest one!

My Family Is So Big!

The "annual family fight" for family pictures went off without a huge blow up. I know, sad, but it ususally turns out that everyone is ticked off for pictures. This year I texted everyone about two weeks ahead of time and told them what, when, and what to wear part. That way I was not in the direct line of fire when they started venting about how much they hate it every year. Travis was trying so hard to smile for them all he was making us all laugh! The main family pic is still under construction so more to come. It was fun, Ashley took the pictures and since evecryone loves Ashley it worked out great. Thanks Ashley!
The Ladies!

The Men!

The Kids!

Happy Thanksgiving

This is the extent of my pics for Thanksgiving! We had a quiet day here and ate like pigs. Then we enjoyed the evening with the Harmons, they came over and watched a few movies and we got caught up until around two a.m. It was a big night, Janet stayed awake for two movies in a row. In the thirteen years we have known her that is a first!
McKayla, Isaac, and Sabrina made this out of clay. Pretty creative and a great way to spend a sunday evening together. Isaac mostly just watched and maybe threw out a few ideas.

Texas Ya'll

The second half of the reception was in Texas in Heather's hometown. It was a really fun weekend and everyone loved being there. We took Sabrina and Isaac with us and they were a blast. We played games and ate and ...ate and talked and really got a chance to get to know the Coslett's more. They were gracious enough to have us all stay there and let us eat their food. We got to sleep in the basement which has a spiral staircase leading down to it, the kids thought that was the absolute best thing ever and it was the most sleep we all got in years.

Heather's Aunt and Uncle were nice enough to open their home to us for the Open House. It was a beautiful home and they were so nice. The kids had a good steady crowd come through but not nearly as exciting as the one here in Utah. It was good to put faces with names though finally.

The happy couple taking advantage of a few quiet moments. Standing in line talking to people you don't know is exhausting! JK

Heather's sister Celeste is now Isaac's new obsession. She was so sweet to him over the weekend, he is just all smitten with her and asked me if he could marry her several times. Poor Ashley, she's been dumped. He told us all that C.C. could have Ashley now, he loves Celeste now. He does have an eye for really great girls, they are just generally alot older than him.

This was the beautiful sky on the way home in the plane, Sab took this.
Thanks for the great time in Texas all ya'll Coslett's!

One More Cub Scout!

Isaac has been so excited to start Cub Scouts after he was baptized. Since he started he has been crazy about earning badges and so here we are at Pack Night getting his Bobcat. He was on a count down for when Pack Night was all month and then the second we got home he went to the calendar to see when the next one was. The next day he was looking through his book looking for the next thing to pass off.
It was weird sitting there with all of our big kids at a Pack Night and realizing that it is all coming to a close. It was kinda sad but fun to know that all the kids are so big now and on to different and new things. I made sure that everyone was there and so did Isaac, he made some calls. It was about time that everyone else came to support him in something. We all know how the littleset kid gets drug around to all the other childrens' activities so it was really nice to have them all there to support him. Isaac was really proud and happy that everyone was there, it meant alot to him.

Long Forgotten Halloween

Apparently I have neglected sharing about Halloween, not that it was way special or anything.It's a good thing we still have Sab and Isaac to remind us to enjoy these kinds of holidays. They helped decorate the porch and made sure all 5 bags or web were put out. I forgot to get a picture of the giant web that covered the huge window and the witch that looked like she crashed into the window.
Our beautiful creations, the barfing one is Travis' and these are all from our garden.

My little Ninja, I had one of these before but it has been a very long time. It was fun to again get to trick or treat in our neighborhood and enjoy that with the kids. There was an awesome spook alley around the corner that was really fun and scary. That family really went all out and they do it every year.

Sab and her friend, she had the face of The Joker but the rest was up to your imagination. C.C. dressed up as The Joker also and he looked so cool cuz his hair was so much like The Jokers. I hate the fact that Heath "Yummy" Ledger is gone. :( I also enjoyed the fact that it wasn't freezing cold and the kids could wear their costumes without a few extra layers.

This was the first snow on Novemeber 5th. It was so exciting and fun but only lasted a few short days. I'm sure there is much more to come.
