new hairdo

So I have desperatly been wanting a style change for a while now, It had been 16 months since my last professional haircut and I was going nuts! So last Thursday Sean and I decided it was time. Sean sugested I color my hair black, I figured it's a change and what have I got to loose, so we picked up hair dye and Sean dyed it for me and then I got it cut on Friday just at a local place and it looks pretty good, it's different, but I like it. let me know what you think

Halloween

Halloween was so fun this year! Kamela is at the age to understand whats going on and she had a blast. We all dressed up, I was a witch, Kamela was a dragon, (this costume was given to us, it's not very girly but we're saying she's the girl dragon from Shrek!) Sean was a skeleton and McKenna was a sheep. Every year they block off the road downtown and people stand outside of their business and pass out candy. We went to the trunk-or-treat from 3 to 5 and then I took Kamela trick-or-treating downtown. She had a blast seeing all the other costumes and she was so good at saying thank you when she got candy. We came home and she had to eat some vegetables before she could have candy, and then we went to a few houses around neighborhood then came home and called it a night. It was great!

McKenna's Blessing

Our swet McKenna Riley was blessed October 18, 2009 by her grandpa David Holloway. It was beautiful. She was blessed with many wonderful things that I hope will be a guide to her throughout her life.

Our Temple Visit

On Saturday September 17, 2009 I went through the temple for the first time. It was a wonderful experience and I was grateful for those who came to share the experience with me.

Mom and Dad's visit

This past week mom, dad, and Tia came to visit us. While they were here I went to the temple for the first time and McKenna was blessed. It was wonderful to have them here. We enjoyed watching movies, playing games, and eating carmeled apples. They met the newest addition to our family and were kept busy by Kamela who never runs out of energy. Thanks for coming mom, dad and Tia, we love you!

Baby Shower

So these 2 really sweet ladies in my ward decided to throw me a baby shower. It was today at 10:30 and it was a brunch. There was quite the turn out, about 15 women from our ward came and I got to know a lot of them better which was really nice. I also was given some adorable outfits for McKenna, and some diapers and wonderful gifts taht will come in handy. It was such a fun time!
