Our Kittens and the Fearless E

As my facebook friends know, we got two kittens about a week ago. We let B and E choose one name. They chose to name the girl Flower. She is a mostly grey kitten, but she does have some orange to her and so I guess this makes her a tourtise shell. M and I then got to name our boy kitten and we chose the name Bob. He is an orange tabby. They are the easiest pets that I have ever had. They live in the garage because M and I are allergic to cats and I think B and E are, too. We are all doing OK with them, though. They are so cute and the kids ask at least twice a day to go out and see them. E is so fearless (go figure) when it comes to picking them up and holding them. If we need to get one of the cats we send E to get them. That is why she is holding them in the pictures. B is a little more timid (once again, go figure) but still likes to go to the garage and give them toys and make sure E is being nice :)

So I know that I am not very good at this blogging thing. I have so many questions! How do you make a list of other people's blog's you visit? Where do you get all of the cute backgrounds? How do you get music to play on your blog? There are many more questions. If anyone is willing, could you help me out? I don't know what I'm doing! Anywhoo, I hope you guys will stick with me while I am learning and figuring this out! We have been really busy lately! I love anytime there is a holiday coming up because there are always so many fun things to do. We have been going to Frightmares at Lagoon tons and painting lots of pumpkins that now sit on our porch. B has his first school program tomorrow night and I am so excited for it. I hope he will actually sing because he refuses to sing in front of us. I will take some pictures and post them soon.

Aunt J and I took our kids to the zoo in Salt Lake a couple of weeks ago. We watched a show where the elephant did all sorts of tricks. The kids had a goot time watching that. The funniest thing was that the kids favorite part was probably playing on the statues of the animals that were throughout the zoo. They could have spent their whole time just playing on those.

This is B's first day of preschool. He is going with about eight kids from our neighborhood. He is loving going to preschool. He always wants to play with one of his friends before or after school. The thing I love about B is that he is such a ham! He is always making funny faces and making us and even strangers laugh. It is crazy for me to think that he will be in Kindergarten next year!

Our Family Pictures

We got our family pictures taken a few weeks ago. Our kids were not very cooperative to say the least. Luckily most of them turned out really cute. Here are my favorites.
