Family Pictures

Jaden left for his mission on October 30th.  Before that we realized it would be nice to get one more family picture before he left.  Mindi did a great job even though we were very cold.  Boo even got to get into the fun! 

October

This October was such a fun month!  We packed a lot into the month and had a lot of fun!

Early in the month Dudley got to come play.  Boo was very excited (I'm sure). 

A typical set up for Mia.

Crazy hair day for Alex.

I was impressed that they both still fit in the car cart.  I don't think they will for much longer.

Alex and I saw the craziest spider on the way into church one day.  This picture does not do it justice about how big and creepy it was. 

One day while I was out with friends I missed an epic magic show put on by Alex. 

Mia got hit with a rough bout of the stomach flu this month.  Luckily none of the rest of us got it. 

One of our favorite October traditions is to go to Cornbelly's.  It was a ton of fun as usual.  

We ended up waiting in line for over an hour for this tramp but at least both of the kids had a lot of fun on it. 

We also held our annual Halloween party.  It was tons of fun as usual! 

Another fun October tradition is seeing the witches at Gardner Village. 

Mia has really perfected the art of the goofy face.  She had a lot of them this month.

This month my preschool had a fieldtrip to Wheeler Farm.  It was a beautiful day and it was so much fun! 

Also, this month at preschool we had a Halloween party on Halloween.  The kids got to wear their costumes, we played lots of games and we even sang songs for the moms at pick up.  They are such a cute class.  

This month Zayne turned one year old. He had the cutest Mickey birthday party.  Even though I neglected to get a picture of the birthday boy our kids had a lot of fun! 

We also went to a pumpkin patch one evening with some of our friends.  We followed it by a treat at Schmidts Bakery. 

Our Ward also hosted a Trunk or Treat Halloween Fiesta this month.  Our kids didn't mind having another reason to get more candy.

School Parade 

We did a lot of celebrating for my birthday this month.  We saw movies, ate a lot and I got very spoiled.  It was great!

Another year of pumpkin carving.  Once again Alex did his pumpkin all by himself. He even got into cleaning out his pumpkin this year. 

Mia was real into the whole process. 

Halloween night was a lot of fun! We went trick or treating with friends this year while Brandon's parents handed out candy at our house.  Mia didn't last too long but it was another record breaking year for Alex.  

Alex did not want to give us a salute.

We had a very Happy Halloween!
