My little Giraffe

We went to a Halloween party tonight. It was fun to see all the neighbors in their cute costumes. Here is the cutest giraffe I have ever seen. (Watch out Hogal Zoo newborns)

Fall Break

Johnny took some days off of work during the fall break from school. We went camping up at red cliffs desert reserve for a night. We are luck it is so close to home because, we got up there and realized we have lost our tent poles. We had to come back down and borrow a tent from our friends. It is o.k. that we lost our tent poles. We are in the marked for a larger tent for next season. One that will fit all four of us and our stuff. We were getting tight in the last one.

We went to the Corn maze last night with Jorryn. She loved looking at the animals. she liked to hide in the corn maze, with her flashlight on, then jump out and scare us. We saw some big kids doing it and had to try it out ourselves. She liked the hayride behind the tractor. She sand, "The people on the tractor go up and down...."

We hope all our friends and family are well. It is always fun to get updates from each of you.

Mama Bird

The last few weeks I have been all about reorganizing my home. I am not sure if it is the change in season or the weening months of my pregnancy. Johnny attributes it to the baby.

We had our last quick visit to see our families before the baby comes at the end of September. Jorryn had fun picking carrots out of Granny's garden.

We took Jorryn miniature golfing last weekend and she said she had more fun playing soccer then she did golfing. She liked kicking and throwing the golf ball, not just hers but all of ours.

Jorryn has been all about dressing up and doing her hair fancy. We have so much fun.

Her favorite thing to do lately is read Green Eggs and Ham. We read that book at least 8 times a day. She almost has the whole thing memorized. (That and Goldilocks and the Three Bears!) It's fun to see her understand the point of stories without being explicitly taught. She was sitting in her car seat as we were driving one day and she grabbed something new and said, "Mom, I am going to try this like in Sam-I-Am. Oh I do like it!" It is so fun to observe her learning!
