Payson

This past weekend the kids and I went to Payson to visit Papa. My dad hasn't been feeling very well so we went up to spend some time with him and also with family. Mike had to work so it was just me and the kiddos. I love Payson. Mainly because my whole family is there and Michael has so much fun playing with all of his cousins. On Saturday we carved pumpkins with friends and family. It was so much fun. Michael really was not into it because there is too much to play with to just sit around and carve pumpkins. This is absolutely my favorite time of year. September starts everything off. It is Mia's birthday then my birthday. October is Halloween then Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Mike's birthday, Valentines day, then all finished with Michael's birthday in March. Love love love it. I am having a little bit of a hard time this year because Mike and I have decided we are not going to leave town for Christmas or Thanksgiving. We usually go to Payson for one and Tucson for the other. It is just so stressful sometimes with the kids and they are at a hard age to travel so this year it is all about hangin at home together and if any friends or family wants to come over they are more than welcome. I think it will be nice but I am going to miss all my family. We will see what happens nothing is set in stone.
