MUCH MUCH THANKS

I forgot something very important when I was doing the blog. I just want to give my thanks for Grandma and Grandpa Kerestes for flying out and helping us out so much with our house. We could of never done it without you. They helped us paint the entire house except for 2 baths. They also helped us move out of our apartment and into our new home. There was so much work to do but with their help we did it. I just want to thank them so much for giving of their time and serving our family. We enjoyed the time with them and appreciate them. Thanks a ton for helping make our new home ours!

Another thing, Our family has been so blessed with this new chapter in our life. We finally were able to close the last chapter and start a new one. We no longer own our home in Christiansburg and everything is finalized. We are moved in and excited to be here. Our Heavenly Father blessed and watched over us so much. We had a lot of fun times with the move but a lot of very hard times. In those hard times we knew we had to rely more on our Heavenly Father and through all our faith we are finally all together as a family. Mike's 10 week training up in Allentown is all done and his team is all here in North Carolina.

Volvo took very good care of us with hotels, food, buying our house, and even letting us stay in an apartment. Thanks so much and we know Mike we do a great job and benefit the company.

But we could never had done it without our Heavenly Father and Savior. We know the gospel is true and it is the only way. By following it we have been super blessed and very thankful.

Halloween Memories

Halloween at the Kerestes House is Spookin Fun! Mom just loves this Holiday who knows it is probably for all the yummy candy. She has the biggest sweet tooth for candy in the whole house but is rubbing off onto Four really cute little K kids. Who know's who that is and even Daddy likes it every now and then Oh wait it even rubbed off onto him. But we just love going Trick or Treating. This year Mom took the kids around for a little while and then Dad took over and had the best time with the kids. He loved watching how excited they got everytime they got received a treat. While they were out Mom stayed home and passed out candy. We had 175 Trick or Treaters this year. We kept track. We loved it and had fun seeing all the cute kids in costumes.
We also went to our ward Trunk or Treat but got rained out so everybody picked a room to decorate. Our family loves to go all out and see everyone smile when they see our room. It brightens a lot of faces. We won for the best decked out!
The kids school also had a fall festival which was awesome! We played games and the prizes were amazing. The kids had a blast. Kallee's favorite was making crafts. Kyle's favorite was playing the bean bag game and so was Kody's. Baby's favorite was winning all the candy and even popcorn. He thought that was awesome!
We couldn't let a year slide by without carving pumpkins. We were a day late with those but you know at least we got to it. With our move and trying to hard to get caught up we didn't quite make that one but we did have fun. Mom for the first time had to have Dad duck tape the back of her kyle's pumpkin. She tried cutting out a VT for Kyle but after she was done he was like what is that???? I wasn't sure my self so dad tape it up and Mom carved BYU out of the other side. You couldn't even tell. We all laughed though.
We had fun as a family and will always cherish the fun moments. We will also enjoy all that yummy candy!

Halloween meals

Halloween FUN!

Look at all that candy! WOW! Daddy loves to take the kids around the neighborhood for Trick or Treating. Kody and Kamden loved it. They were so cute holding their little buckets walking up to the door and saying Trick or Treat. They couldn't believe by just saying those words such wonderful rewards come. Boy I hope you two will share with your favorite mom and dad.
Kallee had a blast with her dad taking her around the neighborhood. She went as fast as she could. When the little boys were tired he put them in the double stroller and pushed them while Kallee and Kyle went fast. Kallee was so excited for all that candy and it will be all gone in about a week. She has her mom's sweet tooth but can eat it all and won't even phase her with all her gymnastics workouts. I guess working out for 24 hours a week has a pay off. Don't we all wish we could do that one!

Kyle also had a blast with Dad. He was so proud of all his candy and let me tell you he won't share either unless you PAY. Can you believe that????But it's all good because he doesn't like a lot of the good stuff so guess who gets to eat that.....mom and dad. Kyle is different than Kallee who eats all her candy in a week or so. He savors it and slowly eats a piece or two. Believe it or not I found a stash in his draw in his bedroom that was over 6 months old. I mean a huge stash. He is awesome and just super proud of all that candy. He already is planning for next year and says he is going to get even more!

Happy Halloween!

Kody Adam Kerestes

Here is a picture of our cute little Kody in his new Root Beer Hat he is so proud of. He loves wearing hats and loves to collect them.









Anytime Kody hears Mom in the kitchen he comes running. He may not be the biggest eater or like food as much as his dad and baby Kamden but he loves to cook it. He does a really good job and helps until the meal is all finished. Here we made Halloween Sugar Cookies that I made with my mom when I was a little girl. We love to make them and most of all eat them. Daddy can't stop eating them and we know when they are all gone who did it. He does have some competition with Kallee though. WOW she can put them down as well. We had a lot of fun!

Halloween Fun with Spookin K'S
