PU Un Kin Patch

Holy moly, this year the pumpkin patch was packed!  It was the weekend so I am not that surprised. We went with our Friends the Stout Family and we had a great and chaotic time.

 

 

Right off you can see below that Brigham whacked himself in the face with the wagon. Great.

 

 

Emily was bound and determined to pull the wagon as well, until someone stole it while we were on the hayride that is.

 The kids ran through the hay maze a few times and then played with pumpkins and in a teepee and then we headed to get in line for the Hay Ride. luckily the line wasn't to much of a pain to wait in.

 Thumbs up for being on a hay ride!!!

 This is Cardston , Abby and Briggs, too funny!

Travels...

Russia

Seth has been quite the international traveler lately.  I cannot deny that I am jealous. However, I know its also not just fun and games for him either.  I just live through him and his pictures. He really only got to go out 1 day and site see while in Russia, which is a bummer but he will go back and maybe get to see more. These are a few pictures from his phone, I am just astounded by some of the architecture.  

If you cant tell it says Monument, Emperor Alexander the III

 

 

 The Dominican Republic

 

While he wasn't able to do much "site seeing" in The DR, he did get to visit the temple. What's better than that? Some of these pictures should be on post cards. Seth actually took some Selfies while there to prove its actually him...but I am pretty sure he would kill me if I posted them :)

 

 

 

Piano

Abigail has been taking piano lessons for a month now. She loves it. She goes once a week and then practices often at home. She has learned so much already. She struggles a little because she wants to already "know how to play" and wants to skip to the hard stuff, but all in due time. She loves her teacher and cannot wait until each lesson.

 

 I am so proud. Currently we just have a keyboard to practice on, if she keeps it up we may have to search out a cheap Craig's list piano. Its so exciting. I hope she sticks with it, what a wonderful talent to have. Someday, I think I may just take some lessons.

Her very first lesson

This is her 4th lesson. She thought it was so fun playing a duet!
