Fall and Halloween wrap-up

 Calli hosted quite the Halloween party. Most of my siblings were there with their spouses. I didn't take pictures of my kids in their Halloween costumes this year. I'm not quite sure how that happened! Busy day I guess.

 It was a happy day when I ran into my high school bestie, Sini, at the 7 Peaks fun house. She is one of my most dear friends and a kindred spirit and whenever we see each other we can pick right back up where we left off. We are both busy raising kids and being moms and rarely get to hang out, but I have always looked up to her and I want to be as kind and loving as she is.

 B took his mom to a Jazz game.

 More 7 peaks craziness.

 We were able to take Grammie and Papa out to eat one last time before they left. Too bad the restaurant we chose was no bueno. Grammie gave Scarlett this Elsa baby doll for her birthday.

 Papa sat Edmond down on his lap one day and told him how special Edmond was and how glad he was that he could carry on the Cooley name.



 Scarlett's tea set. I find this thing all over the house, set up in random places just so.




 We went down to Murray one day to hang out with Spencer. He is such a fun cousin. It's awesome having Kristine and her family living close by again.

 We've been doing a lot of biking lately. There are some nice mountain biking trails down the street from our house in Kaysville, and we also like to go to this bike park in Draper.

 Halloween shenanigans.

I took my punken's to the pumpkin patch.


We met some cousins there.





I took a sick day in October. Spent the morning feeling ill and taking it easy, while my girls wreaked havoc on my house.
The daily trip to the school and back.

My boys and their school pictures.


Two of my sisters, Kristine and  Calli.
