We are so grateful for our business and for all of the people Heavenly Father has placed into our lives. We honestly can't picture where we would be without this great opportunity! We have learned so much! We feel so lucky and so blessed and are SO EXCITED about where we are going! Hard work pays off!
Last Sunday, for Chantiel's birthday, we went over to the Bishops' house to have a little pre-birthday/Halloween get-together! It was a ton of fun. Chantiel & Jeff had pizza and queso with chips ready and we ate and ate and ate! We found a couple of cool pumpkin patterns and let the boys go at it! Thanks for the invite guys! We can't wait until we can get together again!
Makin' sure to get all of the guts out! Eww...gross!
Daddy thinks he's a pumpkin...how cute!

So at Grandma's birthday party last Sunday, they had a table set up with all types of bread desserts, dove chocolates, hot cider, etc. Well...check out this little chocolate snatcher. Samantha walked up to the table and looked around to make sure nobody was watching. She then grabbed a dove chocolate and stuffed it in her pocket. She walked in a circle, looked around to make sure nobody was looking again and did the same thing...over and over and over again! It was hilarious! We were all watching her, but she didn't know it. It didn't happen just a few times. When we got home that night, I told Steve that Samantha had a present for him in her pockets. He reached into her pockets and started pulling out melted dove chocolates. What was the final tally? She had given one away to Uncle Kent, one to Aunt Sue, eaten six or seven and still had twelve melted chocolates that Daddy pulled out! It was so funny! I guess she is learning at an early age that chocolate is a girl's best friend.

Aren't I so grown-up?
You know, I still haven't figured out how to smile without squinting one eye!
Have I got you wrapped around my finger yet?
So each day when I get ready, I ask Samantha if she wants her hair done and she always says,"Samantha hair done too." When I ask her how she wants me to do it, she always says, "Samantha wear piggies!" or "Samantha wear bouncy balls!" (Meaning she wants her hair in messy buns.) It's hilarious! It's so much fun watching her learn to talk and the vocabulary she is picking up! If someone would've told me that children were such great entertainment, I don't think I would've believed them. Maybe we should consider having another one soon. :O) Yesterday Steven and I went and bought a new digital camera for my birthday today! Can you believe it? We finally broke down and bought a digital camera. We took our old film dependent camera to the company trip in San Francisco last month and realized...hey...it's really time to move on and leave the old school camera behind. 48 exposures and we were all done, but there was SO much more to take pictures of (and see) while we were there. Thanks Steven! We finally have a nice digital camera with 10 megapixels, 12x optimal zoom and a 2.7'' LCD screen. I love it! Here's a couple of pictures to put on display our amazing skills with the camera. Did any of you know that we really have twins? Samantha & Luci (fer). Little Luci is the one that is always digging in my purse. What a little devil!
