~~SUPPORTIVE GRANDPARENTS~~

Both sets of grandparents came to Will's football game today.  We LOVE it when grandparents come to watch.  It means so much to our kids! :) We love you!!!

~~LOOKS LIKE HALLOWEEN~~

 Its beginning to look a lot like Halloween at the Dean home :) For FHE on Monday we went to Harmons and picked the perfect pumpkins and decorations for the porch. Then off to Ice Berg for shakes! It's our Halloween TRADITION :)   We sure missed Rachel but we picked the perfect pumpkin that will sit on our porch in honor of her :) 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

 

 

 

~~VEGAS WITH THE GIRLS~~

Last weekend was our neighborhood girls trip to Vegas.  It was such a relaxing, fun getaway.  We were gone 4 nights and 4 days! :) 6 of us left Wednesday afternoon (Me, Janae, Kate, Steph, Mandy and Michelle). Thursday morning we got pedicures, laid by the pool, ate, played cards.  The rest of the crew (Michele, Kristine, Holly and Aubrey) came down Thursday night.  We went walking every morning, laid by the pool, ate, played cards, repeat... It was just the break we all needed.  I sure LOVE all my neighborhood buddies!  They are the best and make me want to be a better person! Thanks for the FUN MEMORIES ladies :)

Me, Holly, Aubrey, Michele, Steph, Kristine, Kate, Janae, Michelle, Mandy 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Yummy KoMex restaurant Kate found!

 We played "Happy" this year.  It is a game Kristine and I played on our senior trip.  Everyone starts with $5.  When your $$$ is gone you are out of the game. The last man standing gets all the $ in the pot.  Kate won the first night and Michelle B. Won the second. 

  

 

 

 We ate at the waffle place Sunday morning and then we were 

On our way home... :(

~~ITS BEEN 3 MONTHS~~

Rachel has been out "3" months on her mission!  I SOOOO look forward to her weekly emails. :) They make me want to be a better person each week I read them.  She is having such a great time and making such a difference in Calgary!  We are so beyond grateful for her and the example she is to all of us.  It has been so fun seeing our kids each email her on Sunday evening keeping her updated on their lives.  Watching them bond with their sister through email is the greatest! :) Missions are truly the BEST! Although I miss her terribly (and still cry each email I get), I wouldn't want her anywhere else in the world!  Keep up the good work Hermana Dean! You are in our constant prayers!! 

WE LOVE YOU!!! Thanks for being you! xoxo

 

 

 

 

 

 

~~BROOKLYN'S BIRTHDAY~~

For Brooklyn Davies' 12th birthday she invited the 9 neighborhood girls to her cabin.  Since Kristine and I are besties :) I had the pleasure of tagging along.  The girls played games and just had a great time running around being super hyper.  They sure are fun to hangout with!  Happy Birthday Brooklyn!  I love you like my own! :)
