Our Trip to AZ for Thanksgiving

On our way to AZ Regan was really excited to show us her new trick

Me and my cousin Jennie

Wooohoo! What's better than playing with fire and being with cousins?...doing it in the desert with motorcycles!

Autnie Brookles and Ragu

Thanks Kelli and Steve for inviting us to the desert with all the fam!

Brock, Regan, Uncle CK, & Aunt Brookelynn

Brock gathered all the kids to make "tunnels" in the sand at he park. I'm pretty sure he enjoyed it more than the kids did. Oh the glory days!

Riding scooters to the park with cousin Paije

Seeing the Christmas lights at the Mesa temple with cousin Paije and Aunt Tahnee

Golfing with CK and Brooke

Happy Thanksgiving!

Smooches!

Here I am schooling Kelli in a little game of Ping Pong. JK Kelli. Don't worry we can have a rematch next year. Hopefully I'll be a few pounds lighter.

Some of the girlies..Lindsay, Kelli, and Brookles

Oh yea.....finally some real dessert without flax seed thrown in there!

Reagan's new "Big Girl Bed" November 22nd

I was pretty sure that making the big move from crib to bed was going to be a process. As you can see, she is a big fan of the big girl bed. We told her that when the new baby comes she is going to get a new bed and the baby is going to sleep in her crib. We decided to get the bed together sooner and as soon as we were done she looked at her bed and then said, "Mommy, where's the baby?" I about died. I then had to tell her that we decided to get her the bed early, before the baby gets here.

Weee! November 22nd

Reagan and her neighbor friends, Claire and Sierra, have become quite creavtive in turning our courtyard into a playground. Dad gets mad when the girls pick all the flowers and berries to play kitchen and make the trees into swings but I love it. It's so cool to see their creative juices flowing. There's just some things we don't tell dad while he's away at work.

November 19, 2008 Sesame Street Live

Thanks Moops for inviting us to go see Elmo in "real life" with you! It was the BEST!

Bye Taylor! Novemebr 15th 2008

Reagan, cousin Korrin, & cousin Taylor.

We went to a big good-bye party for the Andersons in AV. We'll miss you Taylor. We're sad to see you move to Idaho. The benefits of having a dad with lots of siblings is that Reagan had lots of cousins her age. These are just the ones that are her exact age.

Crazy bath time

Reagan came running out of the bath the other night screaming, "Mommy, mommy look at my horns." It's always a party with dad in charge of bath time.

Yes, it does rain in "sunny California"...

...but only for about 30 minutes. I swear we have winter sometime during the year. I am starting to wonder if we'll have it this year though. It's been sunny and in the 80s and 90s for the past 6 months straight. I don't mind renting forever to be able to live in this wonderland!

Happy Halloween: October 31, 2008

The day started out with some good 'ol pumpkin pancakes.

Later that day we met at our house to go to the Halloween Street Fair on Main St. (The Blads, Christensens, Kochs, MacDonalds, Moores, and the Watkins)

Weeee! The princess goes flying down the slide.

Things got crazy crowded but oh so much fun.

The petting zoo was a Ragu favorite.

Daddy and Ragu shots some hoops together.

Then back to our house for some Lou's pumpkin pie and peach pie (of course). Reagan opted for her fav, an ice cream cone!

To top it off we had to play one of Brock's childhood favorite games. As you can see poor Chels didn't quite come out the winner and had to go "fish" out the quarter from the flour. I don't even know if this crazy Apple Valley game has a name.

Trunk-or-Treat HB 7th Ward

On our way to Trunk-or Treat. Reagan's buddy, Sierra, came with us.

Lovin the cake walk. After Reagan's number was called and realized you get a cupcake she played about ten more times.

" Trunk-or-treat, smell my feet."

Whooohoooo! Reagan and her buddy Addi.

Just the girls

Oh so yummy. After a hard night of playing it's nice to just sit and chill with your buddies and enjoy some of the good stuff. Anna Bananna, Reagan and Ikey.

I'm a fairy!

I told Reagan at first she was a princess b/c I forgot that her costume was really a fairy. Now when I say she is a fairy she always corrects me and says, "No mommy. I'm a princess!"

Icing Halloween cookies with our buddies, the Moops

Icing cookies is the best!

Reagan digging into her awesome cookies that Jodi made us

Happy Halloween!

Reagan's First Field Trip...Tanaka Farms

Reagan's first field trip October 23, 2008
Here we are at preschool about to get on the bus for Reagan's field trip. She was more excited to get to ride a bus with all of her friends than go to the actual farm. I guess that's the Ebmeyer in her. For some reason those Ebmeyer's think riding a bus is like getting to ride in a space shuttle. Although, I do have to say, we always have a lot of fun with all the fam on Ebmeyer Charter rides!! Thanks uncle Bru!
