Pickin' Pumpkins

Evelyn knew that Carter had lots of cute pictures taken of him at the pumpkin patch so she was hoping he would post some too, then they could kindof be together!

As you can see in the background we were a little late in the season for the good pickins' but we had fun anyway.

We love you!!!

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Hello Eveyone,
Well Canada is fine so far it cold every once in a while. Well In a poor part of town with lots of people from other countries. I've met more people here from other countries then I have my whole life. Well My comp is a really cool guy. He reminds me of Trevor Billensly. He is very quite. but we get along just fine. I'm still getting use to all the green. It' weird deer live in the parks here. At night you can see them walkin through neighborhoods to get to this big park. Well we are teaching a lot of people that want to be baptized but the can't commit for some reason. Mosty word of wisdom stuff. Everyone here has a dog I mean evryone. I getting very annoyed of knocking on doors and having a dog bark his head off till someone anwsers the door. I don't think I'm going to ever have a dog. I'm sick of them. Part of my area is on the reservation. It's fun to go out there, or I should say funny. The Indians can't afford beer so the drink hair spray and listerien, I don't know how they are still alive. They also like to reminds us the us white me stole their land and stuff. Well i'm doing good I'm glad to here from everyone, I did get your letters. I love you guys I'll try to get some pictures on next week.

Tumble in Bed

Evelyn was singing "Tumble in bed my tired little sleepy head" to her baby as she put her to sleep in the laundry basket. We thought it was cute!

Evelyn Opens Presents from AZ

As you can see Evelyn loved all of her presents. She wanted to send you all a great big thank you hug!

Evelyn's Birthday Open Princess Book

Evelyn had a blast opening presents. She got this from "Grammie Sally" and Aunt Becky. She was thrilled to get the princess book, we love the reaction...

Happy Birthday Evelyn

This was Evelyn's blowing of the candles. She had a very fun birthday, we just wish all the family could've been there too! She had lots of friends and fun! Just in case you are wondering, the door was locked and I needed to let someone in, that's why I ran away in the beginning. Love you all!

Poor Little Carter

So, I guess everyone has seen these pictures since they were on the CDs I sent out (did everyone get them?) but I thought I would give the back ground. Carter got (we found out later) Rosiola. He had a temperature of 105 over the weekend of Conference. It was horrible! He was so miserable. He just laid on us and wimpered. On Sunday night he wouldn't sleep unless we were right there with him. After the fever finally went away he got a really nasty rash. I felt so bad for him.
Carter and Bryan are both asleep in that picture. I woke up about 1:00am and couldn't find Bryan. He was in the guest room with Carter because Carter wouldn't sleep on his own. Turns out Carter is quite the cuddle bug when he's asleep. :)
Carter is doing much better now (for all who are wondering :)). He's so cute. He's in the mimmicking stage and he is walking everywhere. When Bryan gets home everyday he runs over to him (as fast as he can) screaming and hugs his legs. It's so cute! He is also saying Nellie now. He says "Nennie". He'll yell it down the hall. It's so darling!!!
Well, that's it for now. I hope all is well. We would love updates from the Idaho half of the family sometime. :) We love you all!! Love, Bryan, Jen and Carter

WELL LET US TELL YOU...(DRUM ROLL PLEASE) MATT WILL NOW BE STUDYING THE LAW. YEP, HE IS GOING TO BE THE BEST LAWYER EVER BABY! SO WATCH OUT CROOKS AND DUI'S CAUSE MATT IS GOING TO JOIN GOLDBERG AND OSBORNE. JUST KIDDING, HE IS ACTUALLY CONSIDERING BEING A LAWYER FOR INTERNATIONAL OR INTER-COUNTRY ADOPTION, AND OTHER FAMILY RELATED ISSUES. HOWEVER, WE HAVE JUST STARTED THE PATH TO LAW SCHOOL SO WE ARE NOT COMPLETLY SURE WHAT HIS AREA OF EXPERTISE WILL BE WHEN HE IS DONE.
