Before I begin with the regular post, I'll just let everyone know that Justin has a new calling. He is now the 2nd counselor in the Elder's Quorum. Our ward split last week so we have lots of new leadership. I've been released from the Young Women's presidency in the process too. Justin is going to do a great job. In fact, they've already had one successful meeting where they were able to reorganize the home teaching assignments.
Last weekend we had lots of visitors. My brother Grady, his wife Kristen, and their kids stopped by to see the house and have lunch. Lacey's family came over too. Nolan just wanted to be held by his Uncle Rob. There's nothing better than good food and family!
That same afternoon, Justin's Dad and his wife Kathy stopped by too. Justin was happy to see his little brothers again. It's too bad Nolan can't hang out with his little uncles more often... they're all around the same age. They took us out to dinner and then went on their way home to San Diego. They were in Hyrum visiting with our Petersen grandparents.
Yesterday, Nolan and I went to Thanksgiving Point with Amber and Jaxon. We invited lots of friends but we were the only ones that ended up going. We missed them but ended up having a great time. There was a big field filled with Fall activities for kids of all ages. We ate lunch and then went into this huge blow-up monster. It turns out that it was pitch dark and it was haunted. We turned around real quick but Nolan was a little timid for a while after that. I'm happy to see that he might actually have a healthy dose of fear somewhere inside. He warmed up after going on the tractor train ride. The other favorite (for both boys, I think) was the water play area with rubber ducks and old-fashioned pumps. Nolan soaked his sleeves and didn't give it a thought. It was a nice day out. I wish this Fall weather would last!
I got a little camera happy at one point, but only because he kept smiling so much! I couldn't resist!

Stay camera happy! I can never get enough of that cute little Nolan face!
I'm glad you had fun at Cornbelly's. We went last year and went into the blow up monster by mistake with Ethan. It was too late to turn around so I went first and called out that I had a baby to the kids prepared to jump out at us. Luckily we managed to keep Ethan from being terrorized. I love your pictures! Nolan looks like he had a blast!
I love the pics! Nolan is such a cutie pie!!!!!
Amber told me you guys had fun at Cornbelly's. Too bad we didn't go. I guess next year we'll have to plan another trip down there. I can see why you were camera happy...what a cute little smile Nolan has. It's always fun to have lots of cute pictures like that.
I'm glad you and Amber had fun. We'll have to do it again next fall, hopefully Ella will be old enough to enjoy it by then.
Cute pics of thanksgiving point. It looks like you had a great time!
He is so cute Kenzee! I can't believe how photogenic he is.
That pic of Nolan and Jax on the big chair was so dang cute!! I want to take my girls there just to get a picture of them in that!! Loved to see that cute smiley face!
BTW I stole your pic collage of when Grady was here. Thanks!!
Don't you love Thanks Giving Point. My kids love going there. We haven't been there this year, but hope to make it before the end of the year. Looks like Nolan and Jackson are good freind. You two have cute kids.
