Hey there

Go Prop 8!

Fire breathing dragon!

Pumpking boy and Momma

This last month has been busy! Austin had his first Halloween. We were both pumpkins! As you can see he had bright green hair, everyone at the trunk-or-treat thought that it was hilarious. He will forever be known as the baby with green hair at our friends ward down in Ventura. Our friends made this dragon from both of our cars that breathed smoke and had a cauldron. We love the Quigley's! Thanks for making Austin's first Halloween really memorable!

The elections were an exciting time at our house. Austin and I went and voted together, and all of us worked on the proposition 8 campaign. It passed! It is sad that there has been so much contention against members and vandalism of church buildings, but it seems to be getting better. We did not have any incidents, but had to see protests outside our beautiful temple on the news. We are happy that it passed and want to thank all of you who supported and prayed for this.

My mom and little brother Trevor came for Thanksgiving. The boys enjoyed staying up all hours of the night playing video games, and my mom and I had fun decorating Austin's and Baby girl's room. Dinner was good, but hard to make in out little kitchen! Okay all you University Courtyard vets remember out kitchens there in the small apartments? Yeah, that is like our kitchen now. So needless to say that having a big belly and my mom in the kitchen with me was crowded. Austin likes turkey and mashed potatoes. Much to my surprise and smug satisfaction of Ben Austin does not like sweet potatoes, not even with marshmallows! I was sad, Ben was ecstatic since he hates them. He was saying things like "Victory for us!!" and "We win!". Ughh.

We are continuing to have a roach problem in our apartment! It is so frustrating and gross!!!! I hope that we can get it fixed soon, please pray for us that we will! Ben is not bothered as much as I am by this whole thing he says "They're only bugs". I am so afraid for our kids to try and pick them and eat them if them see one. Double ughhh.
