Halloween festivities

We painted pumpkins for Family Home Evening a few days before Halloween.

A little body art

Good thing it washes off!

After a long day at the temple, we rushed home, changed, and went to our ward chili cook-off/ Halloween party. Thank goodness for Crockpots!

Halloween Day:

Super Josh!

We made ghosts on Halloween. It seemed extra appropriate because we were learning about G that week!

Nope, it doesn't taste good.

I see you!

It's fun to get dirty every once in a while...

Especially when you get to "go swimming" after.

Happy Heather

We made pretzel spider's webs.

Yummy!

Eating the spider!

Yummo!

This is what Super Mom looked like that day...It's amazing the things you can do when you are sick!

Thoughtful Rapunzel

Excited Rapunzel

Flynn and Pascal

There's a smile!

Here we are again.

Pascal. What a good sport, Daddy!

Ummm...What's with the funny face?

Ready to go on their quest for candy!

My costume glamor shot. I was feeling too awful to curl my hair or do anything special, so I stayed home and passed out handfuls of candy to our very few trick or treaters. (Thank goodness! I needed all the rest I could get!)

It's Autumn Time, It's Autumn Time!

Enjoying the lovely fall weather!

Climbing the spider's web.

Geese enjoying the weather

Our street.

The art of jumping in the leaves.

Best day EVER!

Buried in leaves...well they were...

Best shot at getting myself in the photo. :)

Row, row, row your boat...

Does this need a caption?

Fall Family Photos

We took our family photos a few weeks ago. I just haven't made the time to share them yet. We are still deciding on ones to frame. What do you think?

In front of the barn door.

My favorite.

Josh! Get that finger out of your mouth!

Love this one too. Actually I really like all the ones I put on the blog. ;)

Cutie patootie!

Deep in thought.

I love this one!

Look at those eyes, and that beautiful hair!

This one is going on the wall!

The closest we got to a smile from him...grrr

UNTIL...Daddy helped him climb the monkey bars. He loved it!

Gasp!

Yep. Still in love.

My handsome husband.

Glamor shot!

Needs brightened up a bit, but this is my favorite of Josh.

The Perfect "Fall Break"

I'm gonna be playing a little catch up, so please enjoy the surplus of photos! We had a wonderful "fall break" this month. Daniel got one Friday off of work/school to spend with us. It was a great day. We didn't do anything special. We just did our normal routine. But sometimes it's the simple things that make the best memories!

During naptime, Daniel and I tackled something that I have been wanting to do since we moved in: clean behind the fridge. The reason I hadn't done it before is, try as we may we COULD NOT get the fridge pulled out. It was literally stuck to the floor with the grime. We had to get our rental agency to come pull it out.

It was gross enough that we thought face masks in addition to rubber gloves would be the safe thing to do. We figured it was at least 3 years worth of grime. And that is no underestimate! Daniel scrubbing his lil' heart out!
