Halloween and a few visitors

We had this chicken wander into our yard.  She has not left yet.  The kids are having fun checking out what she is doing in the yard.  We are trying to get a friend who lives in the country to come grab her.

We also had a cat come visit.  Evan is so good to animals.  We found the cat's owner so she has been returned.

Aaron had Joy School on Halloween.  They wore their costumes.  They all looked so cute.

I made rice krispy pumpkins for the neighborhood Halloween party.

My neighbor decorated her house so it was haunted.

The kids had a great time with it.  I love our neighbors and neighborhood.

We all ate dinner and went trick or treating.  

Primary Program

Joshua had his last primary program today.  I won't lie it breaks my heart a little.  He is excited to move on and up to Young Mens.  The kids all did great.  It is so beautiful to hear them sing and testify of Christ.  We have such great teachers and leaders. 

Pumpkins and Soccer

Dallin made a Harry Potter pumpkin.  

Michael and I did a wizard pumpkin

Joshua did a Raven pumpkin for Ravenclaw.

Evan and Leah made this one.

Ward Trunk or Treat.  

It was the last soccer game of the season.  It was a heart breaker for Joshua's team.

Evan did well this year.  He had a great time with his team.

Leah made a goal.  She really played well this last game. 

Texas State Fair

We headed out to Half Price Books clearance sale last Saturday.  It was amazing!  A huge warehouse full of books 2 dollars and under.  We had so much fun going through and finding books.

Next we headed to the fair for the first time.

The kids played games.

We rode a few rides.

We tried the food.

We enjoyed the cars.

The kid had fun sitting in expensive cars.

Rainy October

We have gotten so much rain recently!  This is our street yesterday.

Michael wanting to scare his Mom so he had to stand in it.

I chopped 15 inches off of my hair and donating it.  It feels weird to have it so short.

We have a Ravenclaw member running around our house.

Dallin is Gryffindor. 

And my little Draco Malfoy.  lol

Dallin went to the Houston Space center.

He had a great time.

They left school at 5 am and got back at midnight.

I love that he has these opportunities.
