Wear RED day!!

Here is Chloe on Wear Red Day!! And she won the most red constest in her class and got a pencil....she was so excited! She had 12 red things on including a red shirt, red shorts, red tights, red bows tied on her shoes, red fingernails, red bow in her pony tail, red bandana, red gloves, red heart painted on her cheek, red earrings painted on her ears, a red necklace made out of a red ribbon tied onto a red heart cookie cutter (how creative is that?), Caleb's red fireman jacket from his halloween cosutme last year, and of course a red pedometer hooked on her shorts! Yeah Chloe!!!

Wear Yellow day


It's Red Ribbon Week, and today was wear yellow day (I know it looks a little more like dress yourself day!) Chloe was so excited and tried to be the one wearing the most yellow to win a "Say No To Drugs" pencil at school. Unfortunately, there was another girl with yellow fingernails that won, so we're going all out again tomorrow for Wear Red Day! Hopefully she can win the pencil then...she really wants to!! Her tights have yellow stripes, by the way! You can't really tell in the picture.
The funniest part is that after we took the second picture she said, "I looked like I was hugging my boyfriend in that picture, huh? My Hawaiian boyfriend!"....silly girl. She also went around saying she looked like Sharpei from High School Musical 2 singing, "I'm fabulous" (those of you who have seen it will know the song!)

Hee Haw Farms!

Thanks to Chloe for being such a super reader for September and October, we got 2 kid tickets for Hee Haw farms to get pumpkins and go through the corn maze.
We had lots of fun, especially Chloe!

Of course I picked the cow one...hahaha!
Chloe and Caleb with their pumpkin!
In the corn maze!
Chloe's silly face is because she was yelling "PRINCESSES!!!"


Chloe going down the slide....love this action shot!!

Crazy BYU game......or maybe crazy us for staying!

Yeah...this is what we watched the BYU game in yesterday. It was 70 degrees and sunny on Friday, but of course a storm had to come in on Saturday....a really cold storm. It snowed lightly the first quarter, then it kind of cleared out during the second quarter and half time. Then in the third quarter it started really snowing. I kept thinking it was going to get better and when it did, I would take the kids to the car to watch a movie because we were all SO cold, but it just kept getting worse. They were sweeping off the end zone lines so that if they scored, you could actually see that they crossed the line...we could hardly see the other side of the stadium because it was snowing so hard. There was an inch or so of snow accumulated on the benches of the smart people who left early. We were seriously FREEZING. But as you know, we NEVER leave early, no matter what. We'll just have to wear more layers next time. It finally stopped snowing when we were walking to the car, shivering and wet.

It's a GIRL!!!!

We had our ultrasound this morning. It went really well and the ultrasound tech was really cool. It's been so long since we have done this and it was really exciting!! The due date is still March 8th...hopefully I'll continue the having the baby a few days early trend though! (chloe was 8 days early and caleb was 4 days early!)

Watch the video of me telling the kids that we're having a Girl! Caleb's reaction is pretty funny!

The Chandler Family

Here's Jeff's whole family in Denver (with Grandpa Morris)!



Our trip to the NORTH POLE!!

We went to the North Pole...really! We took a trip out to Denver because Jeff's sister, Melanie's daughter was getting baptized and son was getting blessed (thanks for doing them together Mel!!) About 45 minutes from there house is North Pole, Colorado. They have a little amusement park there where they play Christmas music, you can visit Santa, and lots of Christmas themed rides, etc. The kids loved it. The city is actually called North Pole and they have a post office where you can send things and have them post marked from North Pole. I thought it was pretty cool.

Chloe and some of her cousins....Kim, Ben and Liz!

Grandparent's Day

At Chloe's school they had Grandparent's day. My mom and Jeff's mom went with her. They went in the classroom for a while, then did a program where they sang songs and then they ate lunch together. I wish I could have been there to see the program. Chloe sang the songs for me and they were really cute! Here are some pics my mom took!

Snowing in September




You'd think that these are pictures from last winter or something. But, no, they're from Saturday when a cold front came in and it totally snowed. Not just a few flakes, but enough to stick and make me have to scrape a few inches of icy snow off my car before church on Sunday (of course, it happened when Jeff was in Baltimore for work)! The kids LOVED it though. Chloe called Jeff and my mom as soon as she saw it to tell them "It's snowing in the summertime!!" We even had enough to make a little snowman! Chloe can almost never play in the snow without making a snowman!
