Hello? Are you there?

Who me?
Oh you mean, because I haven't posted since July??

Well, yes. I'm here.
Alive and well. 
It seems that if you don't use your blog as a business, social media takes care of all the 
"life updates"
I don't even really remember why I have this blog.
So, I guess for the 5 readers out there that like to see what's happening in my life on Instagram, Facebook AND my blog,
this post is for you my friends.
You. are. welcome.

So... let's start in August shall we?
We decided to take advantage of the cool mountain weather and get out the swealtering valley heat, so we headed up to the Graham mountains to do some campin!
We had found a perfect spot which ended up being reserved for someone else and we were forced to move. I was not happy about it, but it turned out to be an okay spot in the end. It rained on us a few times, which made for muddy children, muddy tents and muddy trailers, but when then again, camping will do that.
Next to the campground was this big open meadow. 
I, of course, had to take advantage and get some pictures. 
My family hates that.
(Yes, Jason included)
Maybe Navy will grow to love it and always be happy and willing to pose for me.
Right now, we have to bribe her with keys or something (see below)







Okay, meadow pictures done. You can go play now!


  
On our last day, we went to find the lava caves? Or maybe it was the wind caves?
I can't remember.
That's what happens when you don't blog in almost 4 months.








It was a great weekend with my mom's family and it was great to get home and shower as well.
Okay, moving on.
Next, my big 4 year old started preschool.
He has been in preschool for a year already, but now he goes 4 days a week for 3 hours a day. 
He loves it so far.


Okay, are we on to September now?
At the end of the month we went up to an orchard about an hour from my parents house to pick apples. 
Delicious.









We also, drum roll please.....
.........................
MOVED INTO OUR NEW HOUSE!!
Finally!
It was a great day to at last be in our own home again.
Aaaaah.
I'm sure Jason's parents were jumping for joy too!
We have been in a little over a month now and I LOVE IT!
I love the neighborhood especially.
Camden has made so many  new friends and so have I.
It is so awesome. 
Wanna move out here too?
I promise you'll love it!
Think about it?

October it is then...
Our first October adventure,
the pumpkin patch.
Jason was at school, so he missed out that day.
Story of our life. 
(For the next 7 years)
YAY med school!
Moving on...
The kids each picked out a pumpkin, 
Camden picked Jasons. 
Navy had a hard time deciding, they all looked too fun.







Pumpkin carving!
Yay! Jason's home!

 Jason was too busy helping Camden carve his pumpkin, that he didn't get to carve his.
Homework and dinner were more important.
Story of his life.

HALLOWEEN!
I wanted to get some pictures of the kids' in their costumes in the good light, but Camden wouldn't come outside, so Navy flew solo. That is why there are so many pictures of her.
It's not that I choose favorites.
But, I do have to say, she probably is the cutest mermaid I've ever seen. 
And look at those shells! They are natural if you're wondering.








Heading out to trick or treat.
There's Camden!
My studly football player!
Go sparkys!



These last four are just because I think they are so cute. 




I can't make any promises, but I'll try to post again soon. 
If not, 
Then I guess I'll see you in February!
Happy November!
