Rewind and Fast Forward

 I need to rewind a little bit to catch up on what's been happening up until this point!

We celebrated both Caden and Hunter's birthdays. Cade turned the big 1-6 (which is super weird..), and Si turned 14.  I love that their birthdays are only six days apart, because that means double the cake for me! 

 If you read my earlier post about the eagle project that Hunter was doing, he accomplished it! His goal was to get his Eagle before his fourteenth birthday. He collected books for the Navajo Native American Reservation in Arizona called the "Teec Nos Pos Chapter".  He got a little over two thousand books, then he and my dad took a little road trip down there with our Aunt Zana is a full blood Navajo and such a great help to give the books to the children's library. My little brother is the best, and I'm so proud of him. He did such an awesome job and definitely earned his rank as an Eagle!


Of course, we carved pumpkins for Halloween. I attempted to carve the Joker, which did not turn out. Caden carved the Assassins Creed symbol. Hunter carved Iron man, and Ally carved the word mustache. I'm not really sure why, but she was proud of it. :)
I also was apart of the annual "Godfrey Hallow" with my best friend and her family. It's always an interesting/super fun experience. It was followed by the most delicious Navajo Tacos known to man and a bunch of laughs. 

Cade went on his first date and to his first dance with the cute neighbor girl! 
He looks like such a man in the picture on the right. He's getting too big.
Congratulations to all of the newly called Elders recently. I had six friends get their calls on the same day. Pretty exciting! Life is such a great experience. There have been some happy new things recently that have made life that much better! Count your blessings :) 

Can you believe it's November already? 



Eagle Scout Supporters

We all like the Eagle Scouts of America, right? Well, here's one I love just a little bit more than the rest.  My brother Hunter is striving to reach this goal before his 14th birthday.  That means he has got about 27 days, so your help would be more than appreciated!  Here's his spill.

        "Hello brothers and sisters! Mi nombre es Hunter. In order to earn my Eagle rank, I must complete a project that helps a community through service. I chose to collect and donate children's books to a Navajo Native American Reservation in Arizona called the "Teec Nos Pos Navajo Chapter!" Their library needs english books for little kids to learn the english language. My great aunt Zana is my supervisor because she is a Navajo Native!! The only way the kids will learn is if you guys help me out. I need help collecting my books! If you or any of your friends or family have toddler-age books that you don't need or want, CALL ALEXA. She will tell me, and I can get your books! I am mostly looking for books that a 3 year old to a 6 year old can learn to read. That is like Dr. Suess books! Anything you've got, I'll take it. You have until October 7 to get those books!!Thank you so much for the support!!! This is Hunter, signing out. Back to you, Lexa!"


There he is. One of the greatest brothers on the planet! He is so awesome!!
We would love to see him reach his goal, so any donation would be great!
Help a brotha out.
