Finally caught up!

Is it obvious yet that Aaron's been working like crazy this week so I've made it a point to update my blog so I don't get lonely?!

I have a picture of Eli reading a book like this so when I looked over and saw Austin holding the book like this too, I had a flashback and instantly snapped a picture.

When Aaron got home from Hawaii, the boys attacked him...

...while I attacked these.

We had a cousin sleepover a few weekends ago with Lincoln and Dallas. I cried a couple times as I looked out the kitchen window and saw these three running around together. Whenever we move from Colorado, leaving the Davis fam will be the hardest part about leaving. We painted pumpkins, made personal pan pizzas, watched movies, read books, played outside, and created the best memories.

The weather was extra warm a few Mondays ago, so we quickly ate dinner and ran to Seven Falls for a family hike. It's beautiful! Eli still says, "I like family hikes." 

       

Eli is his father's son. Lately, each night as we put him to bed he says, "May I have the light on for a few minutes?" He loves books. When I walked into his room a few nights ago, I heard him pretend reading to himself so naturally I took a pic.

Here's a sneak peak of our family Halloween costume. The Lion. I think he likes his costume. ;)

The last day of September, Aaron had a work deadline and was waiting for a few phone calls before he could leave. The best part about living 5 minutes from his work was that we were able to deliver him dinner that night. Eli was intrigued by his work phone. (Aaron didn't get home until !2:30 a.m that night!)

In preparation for General Conference, we decided to have a temple walk with Alex and her kids. It was a gorgeous Colorado day and we loved being at the temple as a family.

Isn't it such a blessing to be able to watch conference from our home? 

Here are a few things I jotted down!

Things of eternal significance are rarely easy.

It's never too early or never too late to lead guide, or walk beside our children.

True disciples desire to inspire the hearts of men, just not impress them.

Whatever the spirit prompts you to do, do it.

The Holy Ghost also tells us our strengths; it is our duty to be better today than we were yesterday.

After prayer, ask yourself, "What area of my life do I want to strengthen so I can serve others?"

Put God first in all things, even your trials.
