The Blind Side

I think most of you know that I could really care less about football. I think it is pretty much a waste of time and I can't believe the kind of money they pay people to play that game. All of this a side we watched an amazing movie last night. November is National Adoption Month and most of you also know that we are passionate about adoption. Blind Side is a movie about a homeless black teenager who is brought into the home of the Touhy's a wealthy family from Memphis. Eventually this family adopts him, he changes their life and they change his life. It is amazing what kind of difference people can have on one another. I love this story because it isn't about wealth, race or age. Go and see this movie. And maybe think little bit more about the impact adoption can have on not only one person, but on generations and generations. Happy National Adoption month!

Halloween

So this year for Halloween we tried to attend our wards trunk or treat. We did attend, but Carter didn't care too much for the idea and spent the time screaming and running around. So my friend Mylinda was taking her cute little one to the Mall to trick or treat so I tagged along with her. Carter did pretty good, even said trick or treat and thank you to a few stores and then we saw the stairs. Carter jumped out of my arms and made a mad dash for the stairs and then ran as fast as he could around all of the mall people. When I finally caught him and calmed him down we decided to try a few more stores. The last one we tried was a sherrif and Carter threw the smarties she gave him right back at her. Oh how I love the terrible two's!
