October

Our pre school group came to our house today and we had a little Halloween party. We had a great time with stories, songs, crafts and snacks. Paige loves being the princess of the group.

Trunk or Treating with cousins
Here we are picking out our pumpkins after the Fall Festival. We got to go to a trunk or treat the next day and carved our pumpkins for family home evening on Monday. It isn't even Halloween yet but we feel all celebrated out. We had to get the pumpkins done early because we are busy with the Savior of the World play all week.
Kaylie was our star of the Rock and Roll play she performed and sang in. She was a crazy 80's girl and she could not believe I used to wear my hair in a side ponytail.
Our two tennis players loved learning a new sport this year. They both decided this is what they wanted to try and they were both good at it and looking forward to getting even better. Good job girls.
Kaylie decided to do volleyball this year and she is doing so well already. She serves over most of the time and loves being with her teamates. GO KAYLIE!

We went to a nearby campground to go fishing and it was a little colder then we thought it would be. We didn't have any matches but that didn't stop us from finding a way to light a fire. We found some coals that were still warm and got a fire going.
I got to escape to visit my sister at their new house. We had a great time fishing, shopping, and we even got to go to a small fair in town. I loved spending time with Tenille and Matt. Thanks for letting me visit.
