I am subbing for Morgan's primary class for a few weeks, so we decided to make goodies to give her friends on Halloween at the end of church today. Carmel Apples!



SOOOOOOO YUMMMMMY!!!!





Trunk or Treating at the church.

We went over to the church for a Trunk or Treat and Costume Parade. The kids had a ball, we didn't have to freeze our costumes off, and everyone went home with lots of candy.
My brother Jeremy went as...I don't actually know, but man, does anyone know a good dentist?
Morgan and her partner in crime, Mario.

Gabe went as Ring Raith.



Morgan, or Wonder Woman as she is now known, had so much fun stuttin' her stuff.







Darth Vadar.

Crazy hair and Pumpkins!

This was spirit week at school, so of course, on Crazy hair day, Gabe was there in line to get his hair spiked, dyed, and styled. And even though Morgan's school wasn't doing spirit week, she had to be part of the brother's events.
Later that night, we carved pumpkins. Morgan was my one brave child, who didn't mind getting her hands all gooey with pumpkin guts.






Family Photos...



































After the party...

After everyone else left, Renae and I decided to have just a little bit of fun. Don't tell the kids though. Our cuties at bedtime, after enjoying some S'mores by the fire.


Girl's Crafting Weekend.

Earlier this month, I reserved the church lodge and a bunch of friends and I got together for a fun weekend to finish craft projects and just be together as friends. There was Mom, (not pictured) Rosie, Jessica, Alice, Candice, Renae, Heather, Me, and the cute little one on the end is Lindsey.
Renae's framed family photo I took, and she added the vinyl, and painted the frame red. I think it looks awesome!


My signs I worked on.

Renae, prepping her tile photos.

My family photo that I tiled. I had never done these before, and Renae and I had so much fun figuring it out together. Rosie, sewing....a quilt, I think.


Mom sewing halloween table runners. Heather was busy on her Cricut the whole time. Buco thanks Heather, for helping me figure out mine!

My temple picture all done.


My buddy Jessica, sewing the cutest Tinker Bell costume you've ever seen.



LOOOVE this sign made by Candice. Gotta get me one of these!



Candice and her awesome projects all finished. Even better, the Thanks sign is reversible, with a Christmas sign on the back. So creative!

Our lovely friend Jessica!



Here's Alice with her beautiful quilt top. Very colorful Alice!




Thanks Ladies! Same time same place next year.













Fall Harvest

My fall harvest this year included some triple berry jam, peach jam, and I canned fresh peaches for the first time ever. Can I just say, there is nothing better than fresh canned peaches?

Things Morgan loves about fall...

Waiting for grandma and grandpa next to the huge bonfire at the Fall Harvest. Falling leaves.
Playing in the falling leaves!




A little daddy daughter time. Milking your first cow.



Fun aunts willing to act silly for the camera.


Cute little pumpkins. Picking out the PERFECT white pumpkin.




Flying through the air on a zip line Safely landing in a hay stack.


Piggy back rides.



Grandma's and their granddaughters.



Kids harvesting fresh vegetables from the garden like I did at his age. Visiting with loved ones we don't see as often as we would like to. I LOVE this picture of Matt with his mom.


Smiley happy kids


Kids who missed their calling in life as models.


A loving older brother to pal around with.
