Random November

Hi, this is Savannah, and I am going to tell you about what we did since I have been off-track. Claire and I had our Halloween parties on the last day of school and had a lot of sweets. We had a couple of people from our family come out to visit us for the twins baby blessings such as, Katelyn, Tami, Mara, and Grandma and Grandpa Houser.

Trick or Treat!

Hi, Savannah here, and I am going to tell you all about what we did last night for Halloween. We went to about 15 houses shouting for treats and went through 2 haunted mansions. It was pretty scary! There were strobe lights and freaky CDs and discs with screams and cackles being played! I was the brave one and went through as many of them as I could find. At the end, I ended up with 61 pieces of candy and Claire with 69 (although I did get a whole Crunch bar).

Trunk Or Treat?

Hi, this is Savannah,(again) and I am here to tell you about our Trunk or treat ward party we had last night! We had mountains of candy and got at least 20 peices of candy/mini toys! We were all dressed in our costumes and here was the results...
Family...
Savannah = Susan Pevensie
Claire = Wonderful Witch
Caulder = Sharkboy
Todd = Grown Golfer Pro
Becca = Stressed-out mom
twins = peas in pods

We had a blast!

you probably guessed

I just needed to clarify that Savannah has been hijacking my blog again. She is really a sweetheart to keep everyone up to date when mom is soooo busy. The blog is just such a priority for her. I love readingwhat she writes and getting that little sneak peek into her brain. Way to go, sis!

I will update as soon as I can with new pics and stats on the boys...

Twins!!!!!!

I am editing to tell you what two presents we got last Friday. Their names are Treyton and Sutter. They are sooo cute. My kids didn't get to see them until Thursday because they wouldn't let anyone see them except mom and dad. They didn't even get to see me!!!!!!

Sorry we haven't updated in a while but our lives are really busy right now with twins, Savannah having jazz, Claire having play practices, and Caulder being more and more needy now as he is getting older.

Savannah has been a great help around the house and trying to straighten out fights between Claire and Caulder and even with her herself. She just barely started doing jazz and has been talking about it ever since. She is becoming more and more mature every day. She is also becoming more and more like me. I am blessed to hear that she is not going to be married unitl she is 25. I can use all the help I can get!

Claire has also been a great help and she is growing more beautiful every day such as Savannah. She has recently tried out for a Sleeping Beauty play and made it. She is a star performer.

Caulder has loved being a big brother and is learning about being gentle to them. He is also learning how to hold them. He can't hold them while he is standing up but I imagine it won't be long until he will. He is growing up so fast!

Our July

Our July was filled with kids!! The girls were off track which allowed for a ton of playdates with friends, swim lessons, movies, trips and concerts. The Houser family reunion was held at the beginning of July in Utah and even without myself in attendance, it sounds like they had a blast!! We also enjoyed a visit from Grandma and Grandpa Houser at the end of the month. My friends (I truly have the best!)also threw me a terrific baby shower! Here are some pictures to represent the month's activities in our household....



The houser family reunion In utah. Todd bravely took all three kids on the road trip and they all survived! Thanks to all who helped keep my children alive while they were away from their mom for almost a week... especially my wonderful husband!!


The kids and their "fort." The month held a lot of together time for the kids and they handled it really well with only minor disagreements.


Grandma Gloria and Claire watching the 3d version of Shark Boy and Lava Girl. The kids loved spending some one on one time with grandma.


I took Annie and Jade to the Demi Lovato/David Archuleta concert in Sacramento. They had a blast!


My boys. Caulder did a parent/tot swim class with Todd. He LOVED every minute of it!


The baby shower... Yes, that's my belly and me. Chatting with Kathy Richey.


Annie's second swim meet. She is the second one in the green swim suit.

Grandma Gloria and Grandpa's Visit

Hi, this is Savannah and I am going to tell you about My Grandma and Grandpa's visit. We had a lot of fun when our grandparents came to visit us this last week. I know my parents don't update enough so I try to update for them. We went swimming, and I had my last swim compentition this last Friday. I won two medals and two ribbons. Back to telling what I did with my Grandparents. My grandma helped me with making a body pillow and a blanket for myself. My mom didn't really enjoy it very much because the fabric sheds every once and a while. I had a wonderful time with my grandparents. Posted By: Savannah
