Whitaker Family Pictures 2015

 She really wanted a hug from her brother. He obliged for a second but then he was off.

Wesley was not cooperating for a sibling picture so this is the best we got. Oh well...

 He is so handsome!

Halloween 2015

 This year we decided to do a family themed Halloween. So here is Little Red Riding Hood, the Big Bad Wolf, the Grandma, and the Lumberjack. We had so much fun dressing up this year.

Here we are at the ward Halloween Party

  Passing out candy at our ward trunk or treat

 He was too cute to be a bad wolf...

 Having fun at Daddy's work party. This is always a highlight of Emry's Halloween. She loves it! Wesley was kinda freaked out by all the people dressed up so Emry gave him a hug. It was darling!

 Halloween Night with her loot of candy

 Emry enjoyed passing out candy just as much as getting it. She sat there by the front door just waiting for people to come. Cute girl!

 Trick or Treating with our friend Tilly (Ariel)

 

 He loved the candy!

Some Fun Fall Pictures

Hanging out at the aviary in Salt Lake

This little man loved driving these tractors. So cute!

Riding the wagon with our friends

More on the wagon ride

We've spent about once a week at the aquarium. We love to play there and visit all the animals. It's been a great thing for us this year!

Spills in the pantry? Emry to the rescue! She told me in a hurried voice, "Don't worry mom, I'll clean it up so it is clean for Daddy!" She's my little helper and she's the best!

Pumpkin Patching 2015

One thing I love about where we live is the large pumpkin patch down the road. I love picking out our pumpkins every year. It was a fun night together with my family. Happy Fall!!

St George and When You Wish

For my birthday Vivian got me and Emry tickets to the Tuacahn When You Wish show so we decided to make a fun week out of it. We rode down to St George with Vivian who was up here visiting for something and spent the week hanging out at Grandma's house (Emry's favorite thing to do!). I'll let the pictures tell of our fun times!

We did some swimming. So glad to have a good grandpa who will get in the pool with us! Emry loves her Grandpa Gardner

 The water was a little too cold for Wesley to appreciate but he loved splashing on the big step and playing on the sidelines...

 We did a whole lot of swinging in St George. The first thing Emry did every morning when she woke up was head out to the backyard to the swing set. She didn't care that it was pretty cold in the mornings. She loved it. Again, we love our Grandpa for pushing us the whole time we were there.

The night we went to When You Wish. Emry loved it so much and it was so fun watching her enjoy it. When Ariel came out to sing her song Emry told me, "I know this one mom, so I'm going to sing with her!" She was enthralled. 

We met up with my friend Kate Davidson who used to live across the street from us and hung out at the splash pad. Her little girl Leah and Emry used to be best friends before they left. She still says they are moving back in a couple years and I really hope that's true because we've missed our friends!

 All the kids. I also found out that Kate is expecting and due about 3 days before I am. We will both be having little girls so it's just perfect!

Leah, Emry, Josh, Wesley

 Besties reunited!

The next day while the boys went golfing in the morning, we went and caught one of the town's parades. We had fun collecting a bunch of candy and waving to all the princesses. 

 That afternoon we watched the BYU/Michigan game and ate good food. Scott made us these delicious waffles.
