On oct 7th me and lyla flew to cali to spend a week out there. My sis carolee who lives in Pennsylvania was going to live with my mom for a couple months while her husband had some rotations for residency. So i went out there to spend time with her and also i did alot of hair of course
here are some of the kids, we all went out to the Avocado house to eat lunch
my two sissy's
and our most favorite thing to do........take ugly pictures and die laughing at them ( this is the sickest picture!)
this picture is Lyla and her friend Ava. We went to Disneyland with one of my best friends that i've known since 5th grade. We seriously had the best time ever!! I think i laughed non stop the entire time. Thats what you get when you hang out with carissa!
They were so tired by then end of the day
here we go again doing our favorite thing, and this time my dad got in on the fun!
so not a cute picture of us but it was the only one of just us
Lyla had so much fun with her cousins, they were great babysitters :)
And we cant forget little brady! hes so cute
In the picture above you can kind of see lyla's first black eye....she ran into the corner of my sisters bed. I was also able to go to niece Kate's babtism. I was so glad i could be there for that!
Here we went to the pumpkin patch, they had a little petting zoo and a train ride.
Oct 27th a group of us went to the park and had a pumpkin carving contest

on october 28th we went to the state fair with our good friends Julie and Tyson and their little boy owen. We had alot of fun and saw alot of fancy people there!
Here is Lyla in her Chicken costume and as you can tell she was sooooo excited to put it on! and to carry her bucket around. Oct 29th Troys school had a trunk or treat at the school and they had fun activites and the kids went around to different office's to get candy
Here we are at the school
She loved getting candy and putting it in her bucket
That night we had our ward trunk or treat and the picture below is lyla walking across the stage doing a costume parade for everyone. we had to leave right after this and not do the trunk or treat because it was already almost 8pm and they hadnt even started the trunk or treat!!! are you kidding me? i was annoyed but she looked so cute!
A group of us decided to have a little halloween party/dinner. We had sooo much fun and i wish i had a real group shot of us! we had homemade soups, roles, corn bread and dinner in a pumpkin and also some really yummy desserts.
This picture is not him blowing snot. Our friends jenny and skyler were in charge of games (they did and awesome job by the way) and we played "min. to win it" it was a bunch of games we had to do in a min and this one was Tyson had to get so many cottons balls on a plate putting vasaline on his nose and getting the cotton balls to stick on it and then blow it off on the plate
after all the games we had a little dance party, we turned off the lights and played some music and got "down" haha. we had so much fun!!!!! I think we'll make this a tradition
