I have been feeling the need for a change as often happens when the season changes so i got on www.marykay.com and went to their virtual makeover site to try out a few different hair styles. It is so much fun to try out the different make-up colors and hairstyles/colors. You should totally try it out. I settled on the hairstyle below and took the picture to the hairstylist so that she could see what I wanted.

Sisters, Sisters. Never were there such devoted sisters.
My two sisters came to visit for a couple of days last weekend. It was so much fun to have them here. We don't get to get together, just the girls very often....like, once every couple of years. We had great girl time and enjoyed ourselves immensly. Carla brought her two littlest boys. Carson and Sawyer. The are the cutest, little munchkins. I just want to squish them and munch on their chubby, squishy little cheeks. They are adorable. Joyce brought her seemingly endless energy and her capacity to make the simplest activities seem like the greatest thing since zippers. Joyce and I lived together when we were both at BYU-Idaho. We had so much fun together. I miss having her so close, she always makes me laugh. Carla and Carson.
Another Little Visitor
My next door neighbor came over the other day looking like death warmed over. She had been puking all day and asked me if I would take her baby for the night so that she wouldn't have to get up and feed her, and risk getting the baby sick too. I said "You bet!" Maddox Grace is a sweet, angelic little two month old little bundle of joy. We were so blessed to be able to have her for a few hours and she slept so well! The kids oohed and aahed and kissed and loved her so much. We might have to provide them with a little brother or sister here pretty soon.

It's Finished....Almost
We finally finished Clare's dollhouse! At least it's mostly finished. I still have to put the trim around the windows inside and do some touch-up paint but it's pretty much done. Now we just need some furniture. Does anyone have any old Barbie furniture that their daughter has grown out of and aren't using anymore? If so, leave a comment and let me know. I would really appreciate it. Now it's time to work on Christmas presents. By the way...I still miss you summer!

Mourning the Change of Season
I woke up a couple of days ago and realized that the season had changed and it was fall! No more 80 degree days, no more spur of the moment weekend fishing trips or picnics. I HATE saying goodbye to summer. I would enjoy fall so much more if winter didn't come imediately after it. Autumn really is a wonderful time of year it's just that you always have that little shred of dread for the long, dark, cold months ahead. So, on that downer note.....Sorry about that. I obviously have strong feelings about the seasons.. Our next door neighbors invited the kids over to their garden patch to pick out a pumpkin. Clare had a blast while Hyrum was more interested in the bikes. Bailey, our little helper/sometimes babysitter. Cutey patutey

The Palmer Farm
Last weekend we visited David's brother and his family in Idaho. They have a house on ten acres of land just outside of Blackfoot. We love going to visit them. They are so much fun! You probably can't see the similarity between David and Steve from this blurry picture but they look a lot alike. They're grove of russian olive trees where they have also planted an orchard of apple and pear trees. It's so pretty! It looks like Steve is picking his nose, and he might be..but we'll give him the benefit of the doubt. :)
