What a fun birthday party! I can't believe Mykaila is now 8yrs old! We had such a great turn out, thanks to all her cute friends for coming and making it fun. We make braceletts and necklaces, then played a High School musical game, and Guesstures. The funnest part was playing Zoom with the kids, it wasn't planned but we had more time and it ended up being the funnest part.

With such a big weekend I forgot all about Halloween. Much fun. We had trunk or treat earlier in the week. Our ward makes it so fun. Kids had a blast. Then on Halloween the kids had a parade at school and that night we went and visted Grandpa Felt, Aunt Sandy and Uncle Richard and Grandma and Grandpa Cobb.

Happy Birthday to Matt and Matthew( for future reference I call Big Matt- Matt and little Matthew -Matthew). Their birthdays being two days apart we held a combined birthday party for them on little Matthews birthday 11/1/08. Everyone pulled together and made it really fun. We had the Carters, Cobbs, Castros and Aunt Sandy over for food(thanks Momma Cobb for the yummy sandwhiches), fun playing Catch Phrase and then the olders boys played Halo while the girls played Hand and Foot. Little Matthew enjoyed his cake and would not let go of his transformer. Big Matt was awesome and cleaned house for his own party and enjoyed sharing the spotlight with his mini Matt. I enjoyed celebrating the lived of my two favorite boys.

Matt woke up early on my birthday cleaned up the house and made me breakfast. Then I was given a very fun birthday party at Mom and Dad Cobbs house. We had a BBQ, kids swam while we played games, and I got my own personal show by non other than Mister Michael Jason Cobb- I couldn't believe it either, I loved it. Thanks to Mom and Dad for having the party at their house cause I could relax and for my sweetest husband ever for orchestrating it all and making me yummy food and an awesome ice cream sandwhich, cream cheese cookie bar frosting with woppers on the top- you can't beat that. The Heywoods, Castros, and Cobbs all made it wonderific.

10/23/08 Happy Early Birthday to Me! Amy took me to Disneyland for my birthday- I really loved spending the day with Amy, no kids, and we got to go on all the rides that make Matt sick. We got to ride the roller coaster twice, the one that shoots you up in the air twice and space mountain three time. I love the thrill! Maybe next year we'll go sky diving. Thank you Amy!

October 22, 2208 Alyssa's first field trip and I got to go and see the wonder of five year old eyes! It was Alyssa's first time on a bus and she thought that was pretty cool. The pumkin patch involved a quick course in pumkin 101, then a corn maze, and a small animal zoo. The kids loved it all even the corny pumkin jokes. Next over to the Apple Valley Museum- didn't even know we had a museum but it was fun. The kids got to dress up and then go on a tour of all the wonders of the high dessert- a must for all.

Matt and I always sleep in Sundays because we have church late and the kids enjoy the mornings without the "no" monster up. So, I thought we would wake up to kaos but to my delight I found this, the kids had set the table, "made" breakfast, and had a sign saying they loved us-we felt very loved. Oh...they even had the Sunday dresses laid out for all the kids. They are the best kids ever.
