Happy Halloween!

We had a great Halloween. We started the day off at the school carnival, eating lunch, playing fun games, eating cotton candy and winning prizes. We made Jack O Lantern pizzas for dinner and then headed to trunk or treat at the church. The girls enjoyed handing out candy just as much as getting it and we also enjoyed sorting it too!

Honestly, have you ever seen a cuter spider?

They all enjoyed carving pumpkins, even Paxton!

Family Pictures

Now that Paxton is 6 months old, we decided it was time to update our family photo. We worked out a swap with another local photographer, Nick Marsing Photography. We headed up Ephraim Canyon and are very pleased with the results!Denali did a lot of these faces
And some of these.But at least we got one of these! Getting 3 children to look at the camera at the same time with a decent look on their face isn't easy.

Alaska Trip

So I realized once I got home that I didn't take many pictures while in Alaska. But we did make some fun memories. There are 19 grandchildren and the oldest just started college. But we even got to see him too. One afternoon my friend Ashley also visited with her son and we had like 15 kids ages 11 and under playing under the same roof. The leaves were bright yellow and just beautiful. We got to celebrate two birthdays, have preschool with Aunt Missy and go to a soccer game. A couple more days would have made the trip just perfect, but I was just excited I got to go!

Rub a dub dub, 6 cousins in the tub! As some got out, more got in and when the tub was drained, it looked like a sand box. Yuck!

The biggest news of the week . . . I survived flying alone with three children! That could be a post of it's own though. So maybe another day.
