Ironic

Definition: incongruity between what is expected to be and what actually is, or a situation or result showing such incongruity. Today was ironic. Why, you ask? Well seeing as how I planned a shower a few weeks ago for this exact day only to find that within 10 min. of the shower starting we get a call to come to the hospital Abby is in active labor. Yes, I find that ironic. The best part of it all was while on the way deciding to turn on the radio only to find Alanis' hit ironic blaring through the speakers. Oh yes, I see irony. I actually started laughing. I really do think God is a comedian sometimes. Im glad he has a sense of humor. It makes me happy to know he gets me:) So I am sitting in the hospital looking at my beautiful sister in law and wondering how we got to this point. My gratitude is beyond anything I can ever express. I cry every time I talk about it. This is an amazing experience and although I thought I knew what I was gettin into I dont hink there is anything that could have prepared me for this and what I would be feeling. I feel horrible knowing that she is going through this for me but beyond grateful that she would. The only thing I can compare it too is the Atonement. I know I will never fully understand either, but I pray that I will spend my life showing my love and gratitude through my actions. My cup runneth over.

Cornbellys and Halloween

This year we took Cambree to Cornbellys at Thanksgiving Point. It was a lot of fun. We had a great Halloween. Cornbellys had a few "scary" things you could walk through. Needless to say Cambree was horrified. Cambree and I trying to be scary. Just Ben and I being our goofy selves. Children of the corn

Me and my girl while getting lost.

Finally we made it! Victory it was.

We had such a fun time!

Cambree loves to get her face painted. I think it turned out pretty cute.

This year my brother Spencer and Ben went as Bert and Ernie. It was hilarious.

Cambree was a witch this year. Such a cute little witch.

The annual Ericksen family Halloween bash.

Carving our pumpkins. My brother is pleased:)

The finished project!

The kids and their craziness.

Halloween night I wore the Bert costume. We went to Bens aunt Kathi's and his uncle Kenny showed up in this bear costume. It was pretty funny.

Just before trick or treating. She had a blast not going to the trunk or teat this year. She loved it.
