Halloween - 2009

This year, Ameya picked out an Angel costume for Halloween and Ava was a Lion. The girls went trick or treating with the neighbor girls and had a great time. Scott pushed Ava in a stroller part of the time, but she quickly got the hang of what Halloween is all about - free candy.

First Big Snow Day

We finally got some snow in Fountain that stayed around long enough for the girls to go outside and play. Ameya was so excited and had a great time making giant snow balls.

Ameya tried to teach Ava how to make a snow angel but Ava wasn't as excited as Ameya to be outside.

The Girl's Dress-Up Day

We had the opportunity to get our pictures taken from a photographer in our church ward. She was offering Mommy and Daughter glamour shots and Scott signed us up.


We got the girls some fun play clothes and then had our make-up and hair done at the activity.

After the photo shoot, I wanted to get some of my own when we got home.


I had to bribe Ava with candy in order to keep her going.

The girls had a great time and Ava has now become our fashion poser. She wanted this outfit on for tonight.

Yes, this was her Halloween costume from last year.

We keep it in the dress-up box, and Ava loves the dress-up box.

Jen and Troy's Wedding

We had the great honor of attending Jen and Troy's wedding on October 10th at the Newport Beach Temple. It was such a great day and we're so glad we got to be a part of this wonderful event.


Jen was beaming and looked so beautiful! Troy had a great smile on his face the whole time. It was wonderful to watch them and see how happy they both looked!









We had a great time as a family attending the wedding and reception and had the opportunity to take some fun pictures.





The girls looked so cute in their dresses. You'll never know that we didn't plan these dresses to all match but just lucked out that they all coordinated.

All the kids were so cute and I think had a fun time handing out together.
