Stephen and Jodi Parker Family
We can do hard things!
This year for Halloween my mom dressed me up in the traditional two year old girl costume of our house – Dorthy, from the Wizard of Oz. When Alexis and Lily were 2, they both wore this costume. Thanks to Aunt Michelle for making it 8 years ago…it is still so cute!

Stephen helped Kendall Pyper scan these pictures so she could make her farewell as Miss Hillcrest 2006-2007 in a couple of weeks. (He put them on our blog as a backup) She was our favorite babysitter of all time from Idaho Falls and we love her family! It was fun to talk to her and see her – she is going to BYU-I.

When we went climbing at Grandpa and Grandma Parker’s house, Lily showed that she is becoming quite a climber. She was trying so hard and very proud when she made it to the top. Notice her outfit…she is into choosing some interesting combinations these days :). She also earned the first rootbeer float!

Today I wrestled in my first wrestling tournament, there was a short clinic before the tournament. I got to wrestle with Chris Owens (4 Time state Champion and head coach for Boise State) He taught us some good drills and take downs. The tournament was a take down style. The first one to get 3 take downs wins the match. My first match was against the State Champion from last year, not a fun first match but it got better with the next few guys. I wrestled a boy from Madison, Blackfoot, and Rigby. I ended up taking third in my class, not too bad for my first time, it can only get better.
This year for Halloween I was Miss Galinda with a GA!It took at least 30 minutes to curl my hair!OWWW!I got burnt at least 3 times,that hurt too.Yesterday me and my friend Lacey went to the school carnival.(she was a doctor,and wore her moms scrubs.)We both won a free ice cream.It was so fun!

Last night Mason received his Wolf in Cub Scouts. As a ritual they get to stamp the parents and the cub with a “wolf paw”. I think Mason had a great time slapping the wolf paw on his parents and making the mess. Great Job Mason keep up the good work.

Mason, Lily and Olivia had a blast when they got to paint pumpkins at Pack Night. Lily had the idea that more is more so she ended up painting every mm of the pumpkin. I snapped this shot before she got carried away. Olivia is very maticulate and just loved it. While Mason just went for coverage.
I found my dad’s camera and just started shooting when I came upon my nerd parents. Here is a typical morning with my parents.
