My Muse!!!
Kendyl's Two Year Old Pictures.

To see all of Kendyl's Pictures Click Here .

I have not taken a formal photo shoot of Kendyl since she turned one. Even though I have a truck load of pictures of her, there all not really that planned. So I decided to take her around a few places by our house. All of the shots are taking a few blocks from my house. I love where we live. There is a lot of character in this little community.


I pass by this turquoise barn everyday when I take Andre to school, so finally I got permission from the owners to shoot there. It is my new favorite place. I love the unexpected color of it.
I know that I just posted about Kendyl on her birthday, but I realized I forgot a lot of funny things she says and does. I swear she is two going on 16. Here are just a few things that she does to make use laugh.
She loves to color. She is a little obsessed about it.
She calls castles in her princess books temples.
She calls her jacket her catch-it.
She loves to sing and would sing all day.
She is most recently obsessed with Tinker Bell and can repeat parts of the movie.
She LOVES to SHOP!!!! (That's a good one).
She is always telling me that things are "pretty"; clothes, her hair, my hair, her babies hair.
She is very polite. She is always saying thank you to everything.
She is very good at the word "Poreeese" (please).
She wants to know why you tell her no. When I say no she says, with her hands on her hips,
"why cause".
She loves to talk on the phone.
She loves her Daddy. All day she will say "daddy at work." And every night when I asked her what her favorite part of the day was she always says, "Daddy work home" (When daddy got home).
She loves the color pink and wants to eat and drink anything pink.

The Big Debut
Okay, it is finally here. Wesley's big acting debut. A while ago I did a post about Wes being in a commercial for Planet Fitness. One of Sports Academy's smaller fitness centers that they are expanding all over Utah and parts of Idaho. We finally have the copy of it, so, I thought you all might what to get a good laugh!!! I'm still in shock that Keith got Wes to do this. Wes has never loved the spot light. However, he has never had a problem taking one for the team. So I hope this commercial makes you laugh and entices you to go and join a planet fitness near you. Or, even better, the Sports Academy!!!
It is rather long, so if you just want to watch Wes, he is at the beginning and towards the middle and at the end. Look for the sweet head band. It is a little cheesy as you might expect.

Since I lost my pictures on all my old blog I thought I would put these pictures of Wes on here again. These were taking When he did the commercial.

Trick or treating in Flip flops!!!
I can not remember a time in my life that it has not been freezing on Halloween. Well, this was the first. I even had people trick-or-treating in flip flops. It was so warm like 70 degrees. It was so fun sitting on our porch with all the other neighbors on theirs, handing out the candy. It also was fun to see the kids costumes, instead of them covered up with coats. Ours kids had a great day too.

Andre was a very handsome Indiana Jones and Kendyl was the cutest cowgirl. Well, I guess Kendyl was a cowgirl who got bucked off her horse because she also sported a sling.

I just love the ham that Andre is. He is always willing to strike a pose
We could not forget the whip. What a great idea, send my kid out with a weapon!!! No kids are stealing his candy this year.

I wasn't sure if Kendyl would want to wear the horse because of her collar bone but she loved it. She would hug it and kiss it. Just like last year, this was a recycled costume of Andre's. I figured I had one more year before she would pick her own thing. Good thing she loves horses. Hey, check it out in the background, our grass is growing, yeah!

This is Andre wearing the Horse in 2005. He was three! He made a pretty cute cowboy too. None of my family remembered this costume because we lived in Michigan. I am not even sure if they have seen this picture. I stuffed the horse more this year and had to hem the legs up. They were still too long. Kendyl has the shortest legs.

Andre didn't have school this Halloween so during the day we went to main street and trick-or-treated. The historical part of main street every year lets the kids come and trick-or-treat. It was really fun. There were kids and grown ups everywhere all dressed up walking the side walks. For those of you who live by me, I suggest going. It starts when the stores open and goes I think all day. They got a lot of candy.

This year I think our pumpkin decorating turned out pretty good. Vote who you thinks is the cutest.

We had a great holiday. We got a lot of goodies and thanks to Andre's peanut allergy we get to eat all the treats with peanuts which, let's be honest, are the best ones anyway. Sorry Buddy you really are missing out.
