happenings...

Wow... I'm a slacker. This turned out to be rather long...Get comfy!

Julianne had her first piggy the other day. I was rather proud of myself. I thought I'd lost my ability to put in a piggy on a squirmy head, but I got it! I sent the pic to my sister and she said, "Cindy Lou Who!" and I thought it was pretty fitting. Cute baby, eh?


I can't believe I missed blogging about this one! Last Tuesday (sheesh, it's already been a week???!!!) Jon took the Utah Bar Oath. Another day, another Oath. There were tons of people there. Too bad they didn't have a job-fair at the same time so we could find a job. They had the Utah court judges there to accept the new lawyers and the one that spoke said with this bar admission it made 10,000 lawyers in Utah. No wonder we are still not finding anything!
part of the crowd

the justices coming in


you can't see him, but Jon's near that pillar.
I was really trying to get good pics, but if I left the flash on, they were dark like this. If I turned it off, they were blurry b/c I was holding Julianne and she kept kicking her feet! Grr... It was actually a pretty short ceremony so, I got what I got.

I just love winter hats. She crashed b/c it was her bedtime but it just made her that much cuter!

What happens when Dad and Mason get left home alone with spare cardboard?? A racetrack, of course! Brooklyn thoroughly enjoyed it, too:

Complete with tunnel and all!

Last night we went to the pumpkin walk and carved pumpkins with Jon's family. It was fun. And cold.

Mason was way excited he could be Mickey Mouse. Wouldn't let go of my hand, though...
Julianne felt like being Cinderella
And Brooklyn, Ariel. Actually Brooklyn had to stick her head in them all but for the sake of the length of this novel, I refrained from posting them all.
We rode the bus so we didn't have to walk very far. The kids were WAY excited. Mason was bummed we didn't ride the school bus, though. Oh well. A bus is a bus, I guess.
Julianne and I had a good time.
Jon could think of other things he'd rather do....
Then we carved pumpkins. Brooklyn was instructing Jon and how to carve it.
Mason and I worked together...
Julianne supervised. It worked out well.
Happy Halloween!!

You guys are so cute in your hats!! I love the pumpkins! We are carving ours this week. I can't believe it is almost Halloween.

Good luck with finding a job! I can't believe how many lawyers are in Utah! Crazy!!! Hopefully something will come up soon for you guys.

I love the race track idea! I should tell Dave to do that with Evan. Sorry no luck with a job yet! It will happen--hang in there! So cool that Jon has the bar over with and got sworn in, though!
