We love to see the temple...

Quite often, our daily travels take us past the Ogden LDS Temple. Every time we drive by the temple, this is what I hear from the back seat...

Benson: There's the TEMPLE!!!! Jesus lives there. Jesus shoots guns!

I guess if you were 2 years old and saw this.....

on top of the temple, you might think it was Jesus shooting guns too!

Halloween

We had a really fun Halloween this year. Benson was a golfer, Casey was his caddie, Molly was a golf ball, and I was the flag stick. Benson actually understood halloween this year, which made it a lot more fun!

Here we are at the Dalpias Family breakfast carnival. It was a blast!

How we feel everyday....

Benson:

"Bennon sad. Bennon miss Daddy. Daddy workin"

What's been going on?

Well, last weekend was the deer hunt. Here are my mighty hunting men.

Our latest obsession around the Haws and Dalpias households is.... you guessed it, GOLF!!!

Benson has his own set of clubs (thanks, Cory!) that he won't let out of his sight, but the other day we went to the golf store and they had a REAL set of tiny baby clubs.

Here is Casey getting Benson set up to hit the ball

Here's Benson wacking it. Look at that ball go!

On a side note, Benson was VERY sad that we couldn't take these golf clubs home with us, so we had to tell him the magic of asking Santa Claus for things. Now he says that Santa is going to bring him "golf club presents".... we'll see about that!

Originally Benson wanted to be a "doggy" for halloween, but after being given many other options, he has since changed his mind. Here he is talking about... what else? Golf.


And here is Benson singing a song for us.

How could you NOT laugh at this?

Dear Hevly Fadder,

Thank you pick'n nose

Thank you boogers

Amen

Ready.... Set....

I guess you could say that I am in the "nesting stage" of pregnancy. I feel really motivated to get ready for the baby to come. Here are some things we have done:

On Tuesday we had our targeted ultrasound appointment. It was a lot of fun to see more of the baby and how she is growing. We usually take Benson with us when we go and he is always really good and LOVES to see Molly on the movie. She is right on for her due date of January 3rd, which is wonderful, and everything looks really good with her. Here are a couple of the pictures we got. Sorry if they are hard to see, they are a picture of the picture.


I mentioned earlier that we got Benson a new bed. It's really nice because it has a bookshelf for all of his books and drawers underneath for his clothes. I LOVE IT!!! and I'm sure Benson does too.
I have been trying to girl-ify Benson's room (or Molly's half anyway). I made these super easy frames for both of them. I got the idea from a frame my sister-in-law, Shawnee gave me when I was preggo with Benson, I just adapted the idea to fit my space.

For my birthday, Casey built me quilt frames. I didn't even know that I wanted quilt frames, But Casey knew and he crafted them with his own genius. I got to use them today for the first time when I made a quilt for Molly.

Casey's mom got me all of the things I needed to go with my quilt frames, like tacks and scissors and needles. She also got me the stuff to make Molly this quilt. I LOVE IT!!! and I'm sure Molly will too.

Casey forgot to get me clamps to go with my frames, so I got to pick out my own. I got these really nice ones, which you can tighten with only one hand!!!! They are very convinient. And the best part is that the guy at the Home Depot gave me 4 for the price of 2!

After Molly's quilt was done, Casey and Benson made a fort out of the quilt frames. Silly boys!

This is them "chill-axin"

This picture...

Makes me giggle.

I had an early meeting at church and they showed up like this.
