Wedding Weekend!

This past weekend we took a "QUICK" trip to Farmington, New Mexico for our nephews wedding. Congrats Chris and Megan! We love you guys! We had a great time visiting with family and getting crazy on the dance floor. The kids favorite part of the evening was the "candy" table. They went back all night filling up their bags. Great idea!!!!
Jordan looked more grown up than ever....and Paige was in heaven holding the newest member of the family, Hailey. Chase was excited because his front tooth that had been hanging by threads finally game out! The cousins had a great time sitting together and catching up, not to mention dancing the night away!









Ricks dad was the "dancing KING". He is so fun to watch....he has so much energy! I love dancing with him. I think his favorite thing to do was be in the middle of the circle to show off his dancing skills! Why didn't Rick get any of his dad's dance moves????

Earlier that day we decided to take the kids to the pumpkin patch. The drive to the pumpkin patch was so pretty. The leaves of the trees are changing colors, so they were a bright yellow! It was super windy with dirt flying everywhere, but the kids still had a great time! They had a corn maze the kids could run through, they played in a "sandbox" of corn, shot pumpkins and corn from a shooter, and went on the hayride. We had a great time!

I have to put in this little thing Chase said - because it was so cute! We were on our way to Farmington and came across a really green patch of land. This is how the conversation went:
Rick - "that patch of grass is so green because they keep watering it."
Chase - "yeah, I saw a golf poster that said the grass is greener on the other hole."
Kari - "Chase, you know the saying the grass is always greener on the other side.
Well, it means that people always want something better. But that isn't always the way it works."
Chase - "Yeah, that saying isn't true, because I've seen the other golf holes and
they aren't always greener!"
