Going Private

I am going to be making my blog private. I've been getting weird comments from some person and I don't like the idea of my daughter being out there for anyone to see. Please send me your e-mail addresses so I can add you to the list (bolsen1204@hotmail.com)

Thank you!

Cal Poly Pumpkin Patch

We have been really busy this past month, but we have definitely found our time for fun! I decided since the week before last was midterms, and last Sunday was the Primary Program (which was a lot of work for me) that I would take Addi to the pumpkin patch at my school. We did this last year (some of my favorite pictures of her) and I thought now that she could walk/run she'd love it! We had a great time!

The pumpkins were pretty dry so they weren't heavy and Addi could pick them up!

Addi saw a little boy sitting on a pumpkin, and his mom taking pictures of him, so she went and sat down on this pumpkin and started saying "cheese"! She's such a nerd!

My boo last year! It's crazy how much they change in one year...

Dave's visit...and some other fun!

Dave came to visit last week... we went to dinner with him one night! Addi fell and hit her head (notice the goose-egg)

I miss living close to Dave, but he still manages to do a pretty good job at being my best friend!

One night last week (they're all a blur) I let Addi have a bubble bath... she LOVED IT!

THIS PICTURE CRACKS ME UP! What is she doing?? I have no idea!

Quinn sent Addi this cute little Utah Jersey and some fun FAN gear! She loves it... this is her tough face... it also just happens to be an EXACT MATCH to a face that Quinn makes... am I right? :)

Halloween Cupcakes!

A couple of Sunday's ago, Addi and I decided to make Halloween cupcakes! She's finally getting to the age where we can do lot's of fun things together and she's a great little helper! So, I sat her up on the counter and got to work:

First, we started with all the ingredients...

Then we mixed them together... this part amazed Addi :)

Then, of course we had to lick the beater

Addi was happy about that!

After they baked, we started decorating! Addi was very amazed... she kept saying WOW!

Time for Sprinkles!!!

Addi snuck a lot of tastes... most the cupcakes had Addi fingerprints by the end!

Final Result! Aww... how festive!

Obviously... she enjoyed them!!! Keep lickin Addi maybe you'll get it all! :)

Oak Glen

We went on a field trip with Addi's school to Oak Glen, which is an apple farm about an hour east of our house! It was really fun! We always have a great time when we are with Addi's little nursery friends! It was fun to watch Addi help make apple juice, pet farm animals and go on her first Hay Ride!

We started the day off playing in the hay!

Then we went on a hay ride... Addi loved the horses (you can tell how excited she is in the picture...haha!)

Then we got to take turns making apple juice on an old fashioned "machine"

After all the apples were crushed... here is the juice

And of course, the kids got to taste it! (It was actually really good!)

Addi was so excited for the petting zoo! She was not afraid of the animals at all!

In fact, she was really concerned about this pig, it just laid there the whole time and she kept asking "You ok? Are you ok?" it was so precious! I love Addi!

Addi, Jayden and Crue! Cute little buddies!

Funniest E-mail I've recieved all week! (So I thought I'd share)

This made me laugh... forever... so I thought I'd share... I hope you all find it just as amusing as I did! Addi and I are doing good! This is a really crazy week so hopefully I'll have a chance to update my blog with more pictures next week!

Visitors!

On Conference Sunday Tara and Deon came to visit Addi and I. It was so GOOD to see them! I've really missed Tara, and Addi loves her! Thanks for taking the time to come see us and for going to lunch with me- child free!

I love you Tara! (and Deon)

Decorating for Halloween!

Addi helped me decorate for Halloween last weekend. She had a lot of fun putting the spider webs on the rock wall and sticking the pictures to the mirror! She is such a cutie! We listened to music and danced around and I helped her on her way to a great fear of spiders! (Watch the video and you'll know what I'm talking about!)

I love her little halloween jamies!

(Don't worry we streched them out after she was done...haha)
We ended the night with choclate chip cookies... Addi liked it!

Let me explain that I found a black widow spider (alive) in my yard a few hours before we started decorating... so I've decided to teach Addi to run from spiders...plus...let's be honest... sometimes it's funny to scare your kids! :)

Lakeside...

My uncle Jon just recently moved to a little town in the middle of no-where, also known as Lake Elsinore, south of Corona. We went down to visit him and see his beautiful house, gorgeous back yard and lakeside view! He has a three-level pool, and then lives on a lake... life is hard! :)

This is the kiddie pool... only about a foot and a 1/2 deep perfect for tanning... or following Tyler around!

My Aunt Jerrie!
This is my uncle's wife's dog- YAPPY LITTLE THING- Addi told it NO NO all day!
Yep- she can swim by herself!
So I had Addi all dressed up in the cute little "Paris" outfit I got her... ya... that came off before she hit the park... so this is Addi swinging in a diaper!

It's just beautiful! (but I will not be moving there because they have tarantulas! EW!)

Addi loves boat rides... she was checking out all the big houses with me!

Addi loves my Uncle Jon... he's so cute with her... I wish he would have had kids!
