Baby Charlotte

We finally got to meet our new niece, Charlotte Bell. Matt (Cade's brother) and Jessica came down to Salt Lake from Boise for Thanksgiving and also to bless their little girl. They stayed with us after the baby blessing until Tuesday. It was so good to be able to spend time with them and little Charlotte. Look at these adorable photos of her! She already loves her Uncle Cade it looks like!

Carving the Turkey and Frosting Cookies

Brad Carving the Turkey and Katie,Cade,and Aubrey frosting cookies. I know no one in the cookie frosting picture looks too happy, but I think I just took the picture at the wrong time!

Delicious Desserts!

All of us girls made desserts for Thanksgiving. I made a Gingerbread trifle, Aubrey made an eggnog custard pie. Katie jo made an apple pie and Mom made a squash pie (it tasted just like pumpkin pie, but even better!)

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was great as usual. Cade and I went to Malad and celebrated it with both of our families (yes we had two thanksgiving dinners!). It was so good to be able to spend some time with our family, we feel so grateful to have them in our lives. We love you all sooo much!

Crazy Cat

Ya, we have the weirdest cat... Most cats won't even let you touch their stomach, but our cat likes to lay out on her back like this. I wanted to test her out to see how much she would put up with, so I told everyone to use her as a garbage (we added the remote for some extra weight). She cracks us up.
She's also very spoiled as well. Cade and I wanted to get her a kitty condo so she wouldn't scratch up and use our new furniture. We went to Petco and decided that we weren't going to spend $200 on one, so Cade got the parts from Lowes and made one from scratch. She loves it and it has really done a great job of keeping her off our furniture.

Sweet Little Neice

I just had to post this picture of my cute little neice, Shayna. She crossed her little hands like this all on her own and we thought it was just adorable!

Halloween Fun!

Wow, so much has happened since last time I posted! We finally purchased our first home in Syracuse and are all moved in now. We have lots of projects that we are trying to tackle, but it's been fun being able to do whatever we want with the house. So far we've painted the living room and kitchen and stained our railings, but we still have quite a bit of tile work to do etc. etc. I'll have to post some before and after pictures once everything is complete. We absolutely love this area and couldn't be happier. It's crazy to go from the apartment scene to a neighborhood. We're not used to having friendly neighbors stopping by to see if we need anything. We have some great neighbors and feel so lucky.

For Halloween we had a little family get together at our house. Aubrey and I stayed up late into the night making cute little desserts and getting everything ready for the next day. It was a great turn out and we all had a great time. We took the kids trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, even little Shayna came with us in her cute little angel costume. I made home made chile and rootbeer (a family tradition). Little D was baptised on Halloween as well. I can't believe that little tike is already 8! We celebrated his birthday at our house during our little get-together. Davis was dressed up as Harry Potter, but received some fake mustaches for his birthday that he was sporting! Katie was a cute little Gypsy and Garrett wore a creepy lookin' monster mask. I posted a few random pictures of our little event.

Campin' and Fishin' for Cade's 25th B-day

We just got back from camping and fishing up at Lilly Lake in the Uintas for Cade's 25th birthday. We had a really good time and it is sooo beautiful there. I got some pretty cool pictures of the moon, it was one of the prettiest moons I've ever seen. The pictures don't really do justice, but they turned out better than I thought they would. We're definitely planning on going back soon!

I finally did it.

Yep, I finally died my hair brown. I've been talking about it for a while, but have been scared to do it! Cade and Aubrey talked me into it and Aubrey ended up doing it for me. It's reallly nice to have a change since my hair has been the same since I was about 14. No more bleach! Now my hair might actually start to grow and get healthy! Cade really likes it, so it's here to stay :)

George

Ifinally have some pictures of the coolest cat in the world, George. She has an obsession with plastic bags, so everytime we get back from walmart we lay one out for her and she runs full speed and crawls inside the sack, then normally sticks her head out the handle. If she's not inside the sack, she sitting on top of it. She cracks us up. By the way, she looks a little weird because we shaved her a little while back. It's grown out quite a bit, but she's normally crazy fluffy. When we first shaved her she looked like a gorilla, it was hilarious.

Visit with Aubrey and Baby Shayna

Aubrey got to come and stay with me and Cade for about a week with little Shayna. We had such a good time and miss both of them already. Look how cute my little neice is! I just love her sooo much! Uncle Cade just adores her and every time she starts to cry, he's running to go get her. He's the best uncle!

Kent and Randy at the reunion. Wahoo!

I love this picture! Look how in love they still are.

Here's Jessica at about 7 months pregnant. Look at that cute little tummy! We're excited to have another little neice in our family!

Beeton Family Reunion

This post is pretty late, but I've been busy! We had a little Beeton get-together reunion at Blackfoot Resevior near Soda Springs July 10th and 11th. We all had a good time and I'm pretty sure each of us caught atleast one fish. Here are some photos from our trip

Shoshone Falls

Cade and I were able to go see Shoshone Falls today. Cade had a job in Burley and I was able to go with him this time since I had a couple days off. We heard that the falls are flowing more than they have in 15 years, so we decided we better go see them. It was definitely a neat experience.

Cancun!

Layin' out at the beach. The other photo is of the Dolphins at Dreams Cancun. It was so incredible to watch these dolphins! They were trained to do a bunch of different things. You could actually pay money to swim with them and ride on them, but me and Cade didn't have the money to do it, so we just watched. We have lots of video of the dolphins and our vacation, but I need to figure out how to get it on our computer!

They had a live band that played almost every night in one of the lobbies. They were really good and it was funny to listen to them with their spanish accents singing a bunch of popular American songs.

It stormed almost everyday in Cancun, but it would only last for about ten minutes or so, then the sun would come out again. It was awesome to be able to experience the thunderstorms and lightning on the ocean.
