What Do You Do When it Snows? Go Sledding!

It snowed here a couple of weeks ago.  Avery insisted that we go sledding with the little skiff we had.  So Amanda took the kids to the park and the slide down the slopes by the baseball diamond.  Not much of a hill, but still fun for the kids.


He could pull Lily up the hill and was so proud!

Lily enjoyed eating the snow


1st Snowman of the Season!

Happy Halloween!

Lions, & Tigers, & Bears, Oh My!
Well here is our Halloween photo.  It all started out as Avery insisting that he be a scary tiger for Halloween. Well after finally figuring out a costume for him (orange fleece and black paint), Amanda got his costume made.  Then we decided to let Lily just wear a costume someone had given us last year, and it was a lion costume.  Once we told people that is what they were going to be, they filled in the rest: "Lions, & Tigers, & Bears, Oh My!"  Brian was a good sport and was the Bear and Amanda went as "Oh My."
   We had a Halloween party for our ward as well as doing trick-or-treating around the neighborhood.  The kids got loaded!  Needless to say we didn't do have of our ward and our buckets were full and our kids were tuckered out.  They had a lot of fun though.   Lily was really enthusiastic until a gorialla answered the door one time and then we had to take her all the way up to the doorstep to get the candy.  She would say "scary, scary" (she doesn't like Halloween decorations at all."  We were also glad that the weather was really nice and actually kind of warm that night to make it a very enjoyable Halloween!
