Thanksgiving

We have much to be thankful for.

We loved having everyone over for Thanksgiving. Poor Brian was sick in bed, but the rest of us enjoyed spending time together, eating, playing games, and visiting.

Abby's favorite was the cheese ball. She just dragged a chair over to the counter to help herself.

Happy Birthday Sam

Sam is 6! Sam chose to celebrate his birthday at Chuck E. Cheese.
We are glad Sam is a part of our family.
Sam's cool present. This car actually drives up and down the wall.

Make a wish!

We're off to see the Wizard!
Brian scared all the trick or treaters on the porch.
They made away with tons of candy.

Memories of Off Track



We had good times together while the boys were off track. We went to the corn maze, bowling, hiking, tie dying, and just plain relaxed.

Faith in God




Clayton has graduated from Cub Scouts. He leaves them this month by earning his Faith in God award, his Arrow of Light, and his Weblos badge. He has great leaders who have helped him along the way. He is already having the time of his life with the 11 year old scouts and leaders. What a blessing to have dedicated people who fulfill their callings.

Tie Dyed






While the boys were off track were decided to try our hand at a little tie dying. We saw in the Family Fun magazine some cute orange tie dyed shirts with pumpkin faces drawn in the middle. These were a lot of fun. They turned out pretty cute. I still need to take pictures of the final product, but this is during the process.
