Week in Review...

Last week I was able to go to Jacobs class and help make their annual scarecrows. It was a different experience than when I helped with Ashlyn when she was in 1st grade. When I helped with Ashlyn it seemed like every child had a parent, or grandparent that came to help. With Jacobs class there were about 5 parents there! It made it a lot more chaotic and the scarecrows didn't turned out as cute as I wanted, but hey we got the job done:)
Abby likes her little rocking chair...
This last week we had Tuesday off for Veterans Day and Ashlyn got invited to go to the Phoenix zoo with some friends. She got spoiled! They went to the zoo, got to pet the sting rays, have pizza and ice cream!


Adventures in feeding Abby, she is on a spaghetti sauce kick right now. She only wants spaghetti sauce! Today I was able to feed her some rice krispy cereal this morning and pudding at lunch time, that was huge!! It will probably be spaghetti sauce for dinner....
Ricks grandmother Joy Johnson passed away on Sunday and so Rick left early Tuesday morning to spend the week with his family and attend the funeral. It was a crazy week, but somehow we survived! Abby is obsessed with being outside! She spends at least an hour or more outside every day.
I love her cheesy grin, when she smiles like this you know she is really happy!!
Trying to figure out how to climb the slide!
I found this high chair at a yard sale for $3. So far she has sat in it once. Luckily it was only $3. She much prefers us to hold her while she eats.
I also found this playground for $10!! Abby is obsessed with it!!
Since Rick was gone we decided to eat something that he can't eat when he's with us. Pizza!!! We've missed it! We went to our favorite spot, Barro's pizza. The kids love it because they have a play area.


I found these pics of the pumpkins that we carved for halloween.
Here's Rick checking out the marina by his parents house.

He also went to the Air Force Museum.

They went to Calistoga to check out the geyser.

It was an eventful week, we also had the Phoenix Temple Dedication today and that was neat. I went with Ashlyn to the first session while Haley watched Abby and Jacob. Then Haley went to the next session with our friends the Chapmans. It was nice of them to think about us and invite Haley to go with them.  Rick is now home and we are so happy that he is back!

  2. Yay for you for making it through a husband gone! I have a lot of empathy for that situation! And it sounds like you got some great steals!
