Time to Stop Being Lazy

Lately I seem to enjoy looking at ya'll's (how bout that spelling) posts way more than putting up my own, but I figure I need to post about what we've been up to since it's been awhile, so here's a start.
We mostly just hang out and play with Alli, which sometimes includes dance parties. She'll tell you sake sake sake (shake, shake, shake), do her Happy feet-she got this from Julia, spin move, and just bounce around-pretty much whenever she hears music whether it is a song or the end credits to a t.v. show :) Sorry the videos are sideways, I guess you can turn your head or turn your computer-either way :)


Or maybe we've just sang some "Old MacDonald" about 10-15 times each day as Alli claps her hands and says "Ono" until you start singing, and it has to be the right song-she's not fooled!
We've visited Thanksgiving Point's farm with friends and their cute cute little children (sadly I think Alli was the one who enjoyed that the most, she kept saying bye bye to the animals and blowing them kisses, and our friends were a little sad, poor kids!).
Maybe mama just had too much fun at THRILLER. Ryan did the shirts so we got FREE tickets (if you go check them out, they are gothic but pretty dang cool!), since I'd never been and wanted to go. I loved it, the dancers are amazing! It made me REALLY miss dancing-A LOT!!! My legs were seriously aching watching, too bad I was never quite that good, o/well.

Maybe we've just been too busy helping daddy clean out the car because we love being with him when he gets home! ( I actually missed the cutest picture because I didn't have the camera, but when I first peeked out to check on them, my heart melted because Ryan was leaning over telling Alli something and she was just paying such close attention-so ya have to settle for this, sorry!)
Or perhaps we've just been hanging out with friends and their adorable tiny babies! Alli really loved poor little Raegan. When I first showed Alli the baby she just looked, then I laid her on the bed for a second and when I went to pick her back up Alli pointed back to the bed, she wanted she little friend back. From that moment on they were bffs and Alli needed to be RIGHT by Raegen, if not holding her. She actually did pretty good, except for the fact that she wanted to point out Raegan's eyes, nose ... by touching. But she did love the little lady. Maybe someday Alli will have a little sister of her own-not right now though :)
We have also been "enjoying" doing a little preserving of some fruits. Not too much, just a little bit. But it has been fun. So far we've done corn, peaches, tomatoes, applesauce, and apple pie filling. And the best part is that so far so good-it's all turned out great!
And probably the most exciting thing we've been up to lately is some Halloween fun with Julia and Audrey (pictures are coming, but sadly I have none on my camera). Yep, my sister-in-law's sister was getting married so they all came out and we got to see them a few times. We loved it! We decorated cookies, went to breakfast while Carli was getting married and we were fortunate enough to get to watch the cute little girls, and went to the "Fancy Castle" as Julia called the temple. We also got to go to Gardner Village on Julia's birthday :) and see the witches. We had a lot of fun! Annie's mom and sister-in-law came along with Jody's kids so there were lots of people to play with! Alli LOVED seeing Julia and Audrey and when I told her we were going to see them she kept saying Juwea and Audey. Well, that's what we've been up to lately! What about you?
