A great movie

Ok so we went to Blockbuster on Saturday and rented a bunch of movies. One was called the Outlaw Trail. It was an excellent movie about a relative of Butch Cassidy and his quest to clear his great unlce's name. The more I watched this movie I kept thinking this looks like it was done by an LDS production company. Just the way people were portrayed and the dressed, and maybe the fact the whole story was about a group of boy scouts. By the time it was over I was OBSESSED with figuring out who did this movie. Well low and behold it was Ryan Little. All you LDS followers of my blog probably know who he is. He also did the Singles Ward and the RM. It cracks me up that just by watching the movie you can pick up on this stuff. Best part there was no language, no violence, and it was a great well written, and even funny movie. The older boys loved it. Anyway just thought I would share my found treasure of a great family movie for all

Congrats Bobby!

Congrats to Bobby he did amazing at his tournament. We are so very proud of him. He placed 1st in forms (this is a traditional demonstration of a tae kwon do form). He was pretty much flawless. He worked very hard and it paid off. Then he had to spar. He took 2nd place in sparring which was so good. He won every match except the last one, where he fought girl who was a purple belt. He did really well, but this girl was quick! Everyone was blown away at how well he did for his first tournaent. Here are some pictures of the awesome day.
Bobby introducing himself to he judges. The girl standing in the white is from his school. The other kids in the school of all ages were so supportive. They are wonderful. Mr. Rios (the instructor) made them these amazing hoodies to wear as a team. They looked very cool!
Bobby preforming his form in front of the judges.

The kids checking in and getting ready for competition. The guy standing behind them is Bobby's teacher. He is such a great instructor, and is so great with the kids.

Bobby showing off his bling! He is AWESOME!
This is a video of Bobby's last match. It happens to be the one he lost, but it took that long for us to figure out how to use the video function on my camera.

Anyone Interested????

I won 4 tickets to a special Kids program at the Ginger Rogers Theater call CSI: Foresnics. It sounds wonderful, however it is for Nov. 8th and this is the day of Bobby's tournament so I can't use them. It is recommended for grades 4-8 and looks like it will be really really neat. If anyone is interested in these tickets let me know before I give them back for someone else to take.

Here is a link for more info on the program: http://craterian.org/onstage.html

I am heartbroken I can't go. Bobby would LOVE THIS!

Two more pics....

The boys insisted I include these cause they were their favorites.


This one shows how much candy they really got. I have no intention of actually letting them eat all of it. Just trying to figure out how to "make it disappear" when they aren't looking.

And it just isn't Halloween without Jack o Lanterns. This year was fun because the boys all had a hand in carving them. It was a lot different because I wasn't freaking out and yelling at babies to put the knife down.

And now the moment you have all been waiting for.....

The costumes

Carson was a Rock Star, I talked him out of being Carson Lee in favor of the only thing he thought was cooler than himself. I love his confidence. He put his costume togther totally by himself. Apparently Rock Stars wear baseball pants, mismatched shoes which you can't see, and vests.

Jason was the Incredible Hulk. He used Bobby's green baseball socks a green sweatshirt and face paint. We stuffed his shirt to make muscles. He was pretty intense and scary.


Cody was Indiana Jones. He was very convincing. He wore my jacket from high school and Dad's hat and actually put this together at the very last minute because he kept changing his mind.Bobby decided to be the Karate Kid. He is pretty focused on his Taekwondo right now with his tournament coming up and kind of has a one track mind. As you can see he is pretty intimidating.
Finally, my hubby. In case you can't read it his tag says From:God To: Women.......


That is right ladies, God's Gift to Women and he is all mine!!!!

You will notice I am absent from our line up. I had every intention of dressing up, however when I got to work on Friday morning I found our store had been broken into. Some moron threw a log through my window in my office and decided to dump all the drawers from everyones desks and spray our showroom with a fire extinguisher before the cops showed up and busted his hiney! Needless to say I spent the entire day cleaning and was completely wiped out when I got home. Too tired in fact to even think about dressing up.

Here is one last photo of the boys bounty after trick or treating. They made out like bandits and I will pay for it everyday until the candy is gone. They are meditating around the bowl, not sure where they got this but it was pretty funny.


Yeah those are my feet, see I am in one of the pictures! :)

Happy Halloween all, now bring on Thanksgiving!
