I did it Traci! And you thought I wouldn't...

Of course, considering my blogging history of about 1 every six months, I can see why all of my friends would think I would not complete such a task. However, I am answering the tag all the same. So, as Traci puts it...

Here are the rules: I have to answer the following questions with one word answers and one word only! Then I must pass it on to seven others. (I'm ignoring the second rule and leaving it up to the readers to accept or decline the challenge...)

So yes, one word answers will be difficult, but very enigmatic and fun as well. So, here we go...

Halloween Fun!

We spent some of Halloween night down on Center Street in Provo with the Hartmans. We went trick or treating shop to shop with about 5 bazillion other families and their children. The poor shop owners didn't plan for this one! They all kept running out of candy and looking very forlorn. However, we had fun wandering down the streets. The atmosphere was so beautiful and the weather was absolutely gorgeous! Hooray for Halloween!!!

Arizona with Angie!

I went to Arizona in June for a Let's Play Music training. My sister-in-law Angie volunteered to come along for the ride - which made the whole trip really fun! Anyway, the party animals that we are, we decided to go to the Desert Botanical Gardens one night because everyone knows that's where the action is. We met all sorts of cool lizards and hummingbirds and cacti. Yeah, we're cool - be jealous. Tee hee.

Bryce Canyon

Bennett turned 5!!!

So, I took a trip to Arizona for some more training on Let's Play Music and when I left, Bennett was 4 and when I came home... he was 5! sniff sniff. This is the first birthday I've ever missed in my family. I was very sad. He didn't seem to care much, but I was sad! But we had a cake for him the night before I left and he actually had about 3 parties instead of one so he loved it! Not to mention the fact that he spent his birthday at Grandma's house! He asked for a snake cake and he decorated it himself so voila! We had fun! The other day he asked me if I knew his whole name. When I said, "Bennett Victor Hartley" he said, "No! It's Batboy Victor Hartley!" At least he kept the Victor,eh? Tee hee. I guess now that he's 5 he can change his name!

Brynn is 3!!

Happy Birthday Brynn!! Our sweet little Brynn is three years old today! That makes her a really big baby since she's still my baby! Sheesh. She woke up to a princess cup and barbie cereal, opened up her Disney princess figurines and was in heaven in church because of them, came home and played and then had family over and cake and more presents and ice cream and candy and then she fell asleep on mama's lap. I love that little Brynn. Happy Birthday Brynn-a-lynn-a-loo!

Jared and Da Boys...

We walked up to Bridal Veil Falls with the Hartmans and took this great picture just before we left. Can you tell which boys are the Hartleys? Which of these boys is not like the other... tee hee.
