Primary Program

So the kids had their primary program this past Sunday. Taryn was overjoyed she no longer had to participate. Lauren is count down the years left. Just one more year Lauren. She did very well. She was the second speaker and I worked with her not to speak too fast. Even though my beautiful daughter was up there, Jacob stole the spotlight. I guess since it was his first program I wanted to watch him more. He didn't sing very much, and hen they were singing, he rested his head on the edge of the podium. Jacob did sing follow the Prophet like a champ. He also liked to talk to the new twin girls that just moved into our ward. They are in preschool together so they are fun to watch. It was Jacobs turn to get up for his speaking part and he nailed it! Jacob had to say the line "Jesus went about doing good, for God was with him". He may not have know what was going on for that 45 minuets, but he knew when he went up to the microphone what to do. Great job kids.

I just got done sewing Laurens Dorthy costume. I am not a seamstress, and this little project stressed me out so much. At one point I just pinned it on her instead of taking measurements. She wanted it a little shorter than I had sewed it so now she has to wear leggings with it. At least she will be warm, cause Toto, I don't think we are in California anymore. We will be lucky if it's 50 degrees for the trunk-or-treat on Saturday. Jacob is a construction worker. Big stretch I know. Taryn is a redneck, another big stretch I know. I really wanted Bree to be a pig, but my sewing days are done for now. We have a warn monkey costume. That will work for this year.

Jacob

So I am always thinking I do too many posts on Jacob. And I do. It's not that I

favor him, or that it's because he is my only boy....He just says the funniest things,

and acts as if the world revolves around him. Which it does. Here is Jacob at his cousin Kelsey's wedding reception dancing with two girls. There was three, but she left before I could get a picture. I don't even know who these girls are. Ladies man already. It's the hair.

While we were setting up for the reception, Jacob was taking two of his three boy cousins to look at the creek behind a building. They look so enthused. He told Jesse (in the grey) he was going to change his name to Bruce. Jesse just got off his mission, and there is already one Jesse, so this Jesse had to change his name. Sorry Jess.

Jacob and his grandma sitting outside the temple talking about where he might serve a mission.

Jacob is convinced he will serve up on the mountain where his grandma and grandpa live, or while driving on the ice road, AKA: ice road truckers. Then they were talking about who he might marry. All the girls in the family need to watch out!

They spoil him rotten!

I need to write down all the things he says, I always forget till later.

Field trip

Jacob had his first Field trip today. He even got to ride on the bus all by

himself. Jacob was so excited for today. He picked out his own pumpkin, but the

rule was he had to carry it on his own.

Bree just completed the trip with her stubbornness.

once she gets on ground, there is no way you can put her back in the stroller.

The prefect pumpkin. He wanted a bigger one but could not pick it up himself.
On the hay ride, pulled by none other than a John Deere.

I wasn't able to stay the whole time due to Bree needing a nap, but

Jacob had a great time and is loving pre-school. Jacob tells me he wishes he could

go all the days. Hopefully that attitude stays around for the next 12-15 years.
