You and I: October 2014

As Craig would say, "Good Ghandi!" I seriously am still having a hard time believing our son is THREE. Noah is such a joy. He is one of the happiest kids I've ever met. I don't know what we do exactly that makes him so easy to please, but I'm glad we are doing whatever we are doing. Haha

For his birthday we took a few of his friends to the Heber Valley Railroad Harvest train ride. THEY LOVED IT. It ended up being about the same price as if we were to do a party because of some tickets given to us. (Thanks again Linds!!)

He is loving every minute of preschool. Something we've noticed is that he only likes to use the black crayon for the pictures he does at school; occasionally brown or blue gets in there. Throughout September they learned all about farms, and Noah still is talking about it and singing "Ol' MacDonald."

Noah has loved having his buddy, Sam back in Utah. They get so crazy when they are together, but they have a lot of fun.

Hanging at the park with Ethan and a new friend.

Our friends Meaghan and Dustin got hitched in October. It was such a beautiful ceremony, and Noah loved all the Halloween treats he got while there.

Jessi came with me to a concert I've wanted to go to for a few years now, The Lone Bellow. It was a dream hearing them live and meeting them afterwards. They are sickly talented.

Noah still loves all things boy. Digging in the dirt, climbing, watching construction across the street, you name it!

This is the best. Noah now notices if there is any "kid" mail. We get Toys-R-Us catalogs for coupons and such, so whenever one comes, he will sit and read/look through every single page. "I want that, I want that." It's pretty funny to me.

We had a great time going to Cornbelly's with the Dials again this year. Noah and Ethan are just so cute together. I love the Dials so much.

BYU football and now even basketball has started. We love getting to spend time together by attending these games. Craig is a huge sports lover, so he really likes when I go with him and show genuine interest in his love.

Noah has officially declared Halloween as his favorite holiday. He loves watching "scary" movies (Nightmare Before Christmas, Curious George Halloween special). After watching Nightmare, he told me he wanted to be a "happy skeleton" for Halloween. Such an easy costume! We just got some skeleton pajamas and painted his face up a bit. He still talks about ghosts and scares us around corners. Love this spooky guy of ours!

He wasn't the "happy" skeleton I thought he would be during his school Halloween parade.

Craig's cousin and family got Noah a really sweet train for his birthday. He loves to play with his train, and tells me, "Mom, it's a diesel train." He knows his stuff.
