GENERAL UPDATES:
Halloween!!! Amy's family had super cute costumes (yet again!), way to go Amy, it sure looks like you made Halloween fun for your kids. Here are some pics.
In addition to Halloween festivities, including getting costumes ready and planning a chili-included trunk-or-treat (make sure you ask Amy how it went, she was in charge :) ), The Forsyths have been working on selling their house. This means keeping the house clean with three little kids. That sounds like lots of hard work Amy! We all hope things work out with the house situation.
Amy and Josh have been enjoying the football season, talking trash about each other's teams, taking trips to Grandma's house to watch the game... We'll just have to wait and see where Ella's, Preston's and Luke's loyalties lie in the end.
The Forsyths just got pictures taken! They turned out awesome, make sure you get Amy to send you the link because they are just awesome. What a handsome family you have! Amy and Josh, I'm sure you are very proud :)
INDIVIDUAL UPDATES
Josh:
Josh's sister Kara just had her first baby! She is beautiful, and they named her Hazel Bell.
Josh is working hard at his jobs and with his school. Josh, school will end one day! (at least that is what I hear...)
Josh is preparing for two really big races next summer. He is doing the Wasatch Back and a race in Las Vegas. They are both a 100 mile run , and Josh is splitting it between some friends from the fire station. Josh, we know you are going to do awesome! We are all inspired by your discipline in keeping fit!
Not only is Josh keeping busy with all of these things, but he is still a great dad, and he is the Sunday School president at the ward. Thanks Josh for being wonderful and for making time for family and callings in your busy education and work schedule!
Amy:
Amy is reading the Harry Potter books again, right now she is on #5 and is liking that.
Amy is transitioning from being a mother of babies to a mother of school kids! Amy is helping Ella remember to do her homework and also helping her with the work. This means lots of reading, adding and subtracting, and other very important things for Ella.
Amy, you work so hard for your family every single day, and I know you are an example to all of us sisters trying to be moms and wives and future moms like you! You are such a great leader and supporter to lots of people around you.
Ella:
Is in Kindergarten! Ella is doing homework! Is she really that old? Ella just had a program for school, where she performed a nursery rhyme with actions! Ella, you are such a beautiful girl and are such a good big sister to Preston. The other day I (Anna) listened as Ella patiently helped Preston remember how to wash his hands the right way. She is going to be such a good mom someday
Preston:
Preston sure is a ball of energy! Preston you are trying so hard to learn to be nice to everyone, and you are so cute and fun! Preston, you make such a great Halloween pirate too!
Preston is growing up too. He is now attending preschool twice a week.
Amy told me this funny story about Preston. The other day, he came up to her depressed and said, "mom..." Amy says "yes?" Preston says, "I'm not a real Pirate." Amy: "How come?" Preston: "I don't have a treasure map!" Amy was kind enough to make him a really nice treasure map, even making the edges burnt so it looked authentic. Then after he came up with a similar attitude and asked, "Mom, I don't have a ship!" Amy didn't know what to do about that. I wouldn't have known either.
Luke:
Luke is learning tons of animal noises and words! How do these kids keep growing up into real people that can talk? Luke has also discovered the T.V. He especially loves this episode with a horse in it. Luke with ask for it by saying, "horse."
Well to tie up this post about the wonderful Forsyth Family, I will just put up some recent pics Amy sent me. We love you guys!!!!
