Uncle Craig for Thanksgiving!

The kids were really excited to hear that Uncle Craig was coming to stay at our house for thanksgiving and PLAY!!!!! They both just adore him, it is really cute. Dace cried last night when he had to go to bed because I had to separate him from uncle craig, and Dax got up this morning saying "Is uncle craig still sleepin down stairs? Does he know its daytime yet?"(meaning wake up time) I do have to say that I have tried to convince him atleast to shave the beard or better yet shave the beard and the head, he would shock people! But I think both will be sticking around. We love him anyways, maybe he is inspired by being in the land of zion? I do see some shocking similarities in his choice of long hair and beard?????

Happy Birthday DAX!

Its hard to believe that he is 4 already! time passes by so quick! We just had a small family party and the one friend he kept asking about (Arora) I think we have a small crush, it cute. Presents came from Gma and Gpa Sample and Harper which were very much appreciated! Dax loved them all! Elefun the game where they are trying to catch the butterflies that are blowing out was a hit for all ages.

Halloween was so much fun, we got to go to Gma and Gpa Harpers 3 ward trunk or treat which was great! Dax decided at the last minute to be a ninja (we left his ninja hat a school though) and Dace was a dragon, he would look down and see his dragon feet as a reminder and then say "rawwwwwwwwr" he did a good job! Dax's fav part was Gma's new tiny tiny puppies, if you can believe it they are already 2 weeks old in the pics and have already doubled in size. and the last two pictures was another of Dax's favs, waiting for the trick or treaters to come! He didn't want to leave the door so he would sit on the stairs waiting for a knock and periodically running to peek out the window to see if he could see more coming. They were very fun and we managed not to get sick on an over dose of chocolate or gummies!
