Happy Halloween!!

Yeah it's been a while......

Things are going pretty good. Long story short Dan lost his hospital job but has gained an even better one. He has been hired as the Training Manager for a private security company, he loves it and could not be happier- the Lord has a hand in all things. I love my job at the preschool daycare, I think that I have the most rewarding job there ever was! I have been called as the 1st counselor in the Relief Society, hopefully I get it right the second time around!


Kids are all doing good- Cody got baptized (thanks for coming up mom and dad!!), Bryan has found his true sport, football, he is SO good (if he could only get those grades up so he could play!), Cole just seems to love life and everything that he does.



We had a great Halloween! I'm a year older, and boy do I feel it :( We went trick or treating with Dan's new boss and his family, we had a blast!! Thanks for the good time Shawn and Jodi, and the presents!

Our Halloween feast:

Bloody eyeballs for breakfast, Mummies and eyeballs with rotten apple punch for lunch , and eyeballs and jack o lantern turn overs for dinner!

Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer

Seriously.

Sometimes I love Dan and his connections.

Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer came to play together in Orem Friday night. Dan's Private Contract security side job got the contract for the concert. I tell Dan (in confidence) how I was sooo in love with Vanilla as a pre-teen. He tells his boss and she said to go ahead and bring me and my friend along! My childhood dream come true! We had a blast! It was an 80's theme dance party and so we dressed up 80's, I think that the pics speak for themselves!

Oh yeah, we are so hot! Check out the pants!

Me and Krys at the concert, wow, we are so hot!

This dude was taking pics of me and Krys for a newspaper, so I snapped one of him. See Dan in the background chewing someone out??

My favorite view :)

MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice on stage together!

Vanilla was SO close (yes I called him Vanilla, we are on a first name basis)

Of course we were in the front row and as Vanilla (ahhh) was walking by I grabbed his hand and he took my camera and took this picture! I know you are so jealous!

Update

All has been going well for us......

Dan- We are so grateful for the job that Dan has and the amazing benefits that come along with it, especially at a time where a lot of people are out of work. Dan will be starting school in fall, maybe business management or something in computers. We just keep praying that this whole job thing works out!!!

Me- Pretty boring. Mostly taxi driver to the kids and working.

Kids- Got report cards Bry and Cody have all A's and one B each! Of course we gave them a hard time about that B! Cole had A's in his strong subjects (math, science- not my child) and C's in his tough one's (spelling, reading- there's my child!). They have been doing well at piano and have now joined choir and are surprisingly good! They have enjoyed sledding and snowboarding a lot this year, it's fun to watch their coordination get better and better!
