"Get Your Witch On"

This is how I feel some days. Jaeli kept saying, "Splat" when she saw this witch.

I saw the quote, "Get Your Witch On" at Gardner Village on Monday when Jaeli, my mom and I went to see the Witches. It made me laugh. Here are some cute pictures from our outing. I didn't get very many good ones because my camera batteries were dead. All of the photos you're about to see are from my Blackberry.kJaeli's favorite Witch peddling her bike.Another one of her favorites for the day....the water wheel. Yeah, nothing to do with Witches, but she LOVED it.The Doll Shop was fun. She really, really wanted this HUGE doll.Mom and Jae after lunch. Archibald's there is excellent.

"Punkins" and Spaghetti!

Here are a couple things that remind me of Fall/Halloween Time.....Pumpkins, or "Punkins" as Jae calls them, and Homemade Spaghetti. Jaeli enjoys both as well........here are a few shots.
If you remember, we took her picture by these EXACT same scarecrows last year.....how time flies. She's much bigger now (sniff, sniff).

She found "The One". It was the cutest thing. The stem was a bit prickly, so when she picked it up the first time, she said, "Ouch"! Dan took a rock and rubbed it on the stem to get rid of the prickliness. She was great after that. "Punkin, Punkin", she kept saying.

Then she insisted on carrying it around. This is her VERY own she picked out. I loved it because she picked up other people and mommy saying "Heavy" about other pumpkins, so Jaeli's immediately became heavy too.

Ah spaghetti. Homemade Spaghetti is the best! Jaeli seems to think so anyway.

I do have her stripped down to just her diaper....as you can see, for good reasons.

Mmmmm................."Nunus". I love Jaeli's language! :)

A Little Taste....of PAraDisE!

Dan and I decided to take a trip for our 5 Year Anniversary (August 5th), just a little later. We spent a fantabulous week in Oahu, Hawaii, saw and did so many great things and just relaxed. Here's a little taste of paradise......
(Warning, the pictures are backwards, BLAH, it's gunna bug, but try to enjoy.)Remember, the pictures are in reverse order, annoying, but this is our last night. We are hanging out on Waikki Beach (which was right across the street from our Hotel).Dan gets GREAT face shots. I kind a look like I got a little color.

A perfect get away.....and a great sunset shot. I LOVE THE PALM TREES!Can you spot the pineapple? Before you can enjoy it.......and this......................
....it starts out as a beautiful flower.About to hit the water in Hunama Bay.

Dan waiting to here the video about snorkeling!

Us at Hunama Bay.....great beach! : )

Don't remember where this was....at the airport maybe? :)
I loved this Bathroom sign when we landed in Hawaii!
Dan was embarassed that I had to take a picture of it, but later, I saw another girl doing the EXACT same thing.

Dan super excited to be in Hawaii!

OCDness.....

Jaeli gets this from me..........organizing (even though you wouldn't guess that when you see my home)....One of her new favorite things is to take all the condiments out of the fridge and put them back RIGHT where she found them. If the condiment doesn't fit where it is SUPPOSE to, she starts to throw a fit. Poor OCD child of mine. I love her so.

Crazy Crafting

I went to a really fun crafty night with a friend in my Ward. She had some great ideas and was really patient, because, let's face it.....I'm NOT crafty (THANKS SHAELYN!!!!). These flowers are made from ribbon and intense concentration...HAHA! I think they turned out fabulous!

Reunion-Ing in Island Park

We ventured up to Island park from August 13-15 for an Anderson Family Reunion. It truly is beautiful there.

Crying on the 4-Wheeler with Grandpa Zundel.
Not crying on the 4-Wheeler with mom because she's got her paci in her mouth. And no, I did NOT drive this thing. Can you imagine? SCaRY!
Sharing homemade ice cream with Grandma Zundel. Thanks Grandpa, but I don't know what she thought about the raspberries in it.
Screaming and crying again because she didn't want to be by the fire. Looks like she had a rough time, huh? :(
Grandpa Zundel, Cade, James, Rachel, Grandma Zundel and Jae.

The Zoos

Here we are at the Hogle Zoo. This was Jaeli's second trip this summer to A Zoo. It was a long day but fun!

Silly Daddy
She was TERRIFIED of the fake elephant

Can you see the monkeys?

On the Train

She didn't want to sit on the alligator, but I had her do it anyway.

However, Jaeli's first trip to a Zoo was Logan's very own Willow Park Zoo. She loved it. Her favorite things were the monkeys, the turtles and the swans. Here are a few shots......

First time on a swing with mom!
