Two weekends ago, about 12 of my friends and I went up to New Jersey to take in nature and visit the Poconos Mountains. The leaves were changing so it was beautiful! We went horseback riding, ate a lot, and just relaxed for most of the weekend. It was great!
Last Saturday was "The Mormies." It was a regional YSA activity at the Wardman Park Marriott in DC. It was a film festival/Oscar night for films that people in each of the wards made. The films weren't the best, but the activity was great. There were over 300 people there, all dressed up, and ready to dance after the films were over. Its good to have Elder Marriott in charge of YSA activities!Sunday, November 11, 2007
Here are some pictures of our adventure over the last week. The top picture is our Halloween costume, a baker with a bun in the oven. It was a great hit at the Halloweenie roast our neighborhood had.

I decided to let my 80s aerobics instructor costume make a reappearance this year. I love it so much the last time I wore it, and I was too lazy to come up with something new. It was a great hit again! There was a big Halloween party Saturday night at some of our friends' house. It was also my roommate Deanne's birthday so we went out to Red Robin before hand (she's the 'birthday girl' in the pic above, Mary Ann was Miss Fix-it, Missy was Optimus Primette from Transformers, and Meg was a socialite). We got lots of attention from the wait staff. It was great and hillarious at the same time. The party basically involved dancing for a couple hours and possing for lots and lots of pictures. It was fantastic!Wednesday, October 31, 2007

We spent the day at Schnepf Farms in Queen Creek. "Not the cow farm, but the pumpkin farm" as Parker reminds us. We had a great time. The weather was good, and the kids were great. Kate loved the snugli, and slept through most of the day, but did enjoy a few of the rides! Parker LOVED the roller coaster - Ryan was not so sure, but he loved the airplane. We all loved the corn maze, but I think Ryan loved running and hiding from us best! Although by the end of the day, after no naps and lots of walking, we did have a little meltdown as Ryan wanted to take his "basketball" home. (Apparently, pumpkins and basketballs do look a lot a like.)

Kate and I had a couple hours to ourselves today! I was brave and took a few pictures of her without her diaper on... which was amazing in and of itself, as she ALWAYS pees everytime we take off her diaper. So, luckily my bedspread survived, and we were able to get a couple shots.
