This and that...

I have some pics I want to post but they are on my Mom's camera...so stay tuned for them. Thanksgiving was great, filled with good food and Family. Tony only got Thanksgiving day off and had to work the rest of the week, so I think that was a little rough on him. I'm grateful he is willing to work so hard to provide for his family though! We are also so grateful for a job! We have so much to be Thankful for and know how blessed we are everyday. That is why I love Thanksgiving so much, it helps remind us how blessed we truly are. I love my family, friends, neighbors, ward members, and of course my sweetest little River! Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving as well.

River's likes

Climbing stairs

Hiding in the sheets

River is loving these things...
Eating French toast every morning with Daddy
Climbing on the stairs
Playing under the covers/ on the bed
He also loves to "talk" into the microphone at church
(he is always trying to get on the stand!)

He is our joy and we love him! He still isn't talking but is definetly a handful :)

Halloween 2010

River LOVES being at the store!

Armed with his ammunition

Trick or treating time

His first door bell ring

Enjoying the fruits of his labor!

This Halloween we had a couple trick or treating events! We first went down to the store where they were doing a city trick or treat. River totally thinks he owns the place and when other trick or treaters would come in the store for their candy, they were greeted by River throwing bottles of jewelry cleaner at them! I am not kidding either...it was actually pretty funny...lucky nobody got pelted to hard :) Then we went up to my parents neighborhood to do the real door to door tick or treating, only to be greeted by blowing wind and cold rain! Luckily it cleared up just long enough for us to run down the street and get River some candy. He was an adorable bumble bee with a cute little stinger. :) River is obsessed with candy and loved every minute of Halloween.

Instead of doing our traditional Halloween Party this year I decided to do a play date with some of River's friends. It was a lot of fun! We had treats, pin the tail on the cow, coloring and a movie. I'm so glad everyone could come and I hope you all had a good time. It was a little crazy with 10 kids running around my small condo, but so much fun :) Thanks for all who came and helped bring supplies you girls are the best! The kids were dressed in their costumes and they were dressed to impress! They looked so cute :)

I had a hard time getting pics of everyone and playing host but in attendance:

Sorry, I wish I had gotten pics of everyone :( If you have any you took I would love to post them :)

Pumpkin land (the tradition lives on)

Pumpkins..pumpkins...everywhere!

He actually just sat there and didn't slide down! haha!

Entering the house of Mirrors!

He loves the cute boy smiling back at him

He didn't want to put his head through the hole so we had to take a pic from behind the scene

The corn maze that we actually got a little lost in!

Grandma loves her some River! :)

This little guy was greeting us at the cash register...my mom didn't realize he was real at first!

Like last year, my Mom and I visited Pumpkin Land with River. It was somewhere my Mom always took us as kids and I remember always liking it. It was much warmer then last year when we visited luckily! River was a little bit of a zombie during the whole thing (I think it was nap time) but then at the end they had some play things and he loved the house of mirrors! That is so typical River, he is pretty much obsessed with his reflection! I'm not kidding either, he is always looking in mirrors and pointing and smiling at himself :) I can't blame him though, he is pretty stinkin' cute! Thanks for taking us Mom, I hope it is something we can do every year :)

The Cutest boy on the block :)

Gma & Gpa Foscarini sent this adorable hat

I am trying to get Riv to actually leave it on, because it's so cute!

Thanks so much G & G Foscarini!!

It is crazy to me that I was playing at this house when I was Riv's age and now he is!

We love spending time with Gma Feller :)

This blog has no other purpose then I had cute pics of Riv and had to share them :) Enjoy!

Provo Canyon in the Fall!

I have always felt so blessed..

to live just minutes from the Provo Canyon.

In my opinion there is nowhere that can compare to the beauty found here!

We visited the canyon before church (that doesn't start til 2:30 now! Agh!) and played a little football with Riv. Look at him go! He already looks like a pro :)

But he kept wanting to get in the River!

Such beauty! I love Fall in the Canyon :)

This is going through the Alpine Loop. Pictures do not do it justice!

We love our canyon and love visiting it often. I hope River will enjoy being so close to the canyon like I did growing up. Visiting while the leaves are changing is a must! Every time I go to the canyon I am in awe of the power God has to create such beauty. The crisp air and the smells of Fall are abundant this time of year. Go visit if you haven't had time yet, I promise you won't be disappointed!
