HappY HaLLoween!!

 
We had an awesome Halloween! Boys had parties at there schools. My Mom came down for the day to play. We visted Tagen at her school. Mike took the kids trick or treating with Triston and Brook. I sat by a fire drinking hot cocoa with my neighbors and handing out candy. We ate soup and in bread bowls, and had visits from The Witch and Tagen and Eric.
 
 
We then went and surprised Tagen(pregnant nun) at her school she teaches.
Her students were throwing her a baby shower. You can tell her students just love her.
It was fun!
 
 

 The boys were excited to take this pumpkin to Paul's grave.
We loved chatting about him, and we can't wait to see him again one day!

 
The boys had an awesome surprise by the Witch!!
She spoiled them with lots of yummy candy, and scared Brody pretty good!

The only thing he asked for his birthday was a Star Wars costume.

These 3 boys are so adventurous! We went up hiking in Jackson while Mike and my Dad went horseback riding. We found a good spot to wait for the guys. Foster decided he wanted to go swimming and of course Brody tagged along. Bridger was entertained for an hour building a bridge.
The boys were so happy being free up in mountains!

I got to go and stay with Bridger the 1st day of school. It was fun.
We got to go to the Brigham City open house this year..
We have made it a family goal to go and see a new Temple every month.
It has been really fun. This Temple was really special because we were able to go inside.. It just made it so special.

These boys are good buddies..

In front of the tabernacle. It smelt like dead mice inside, but it was pretty on the outside



Even in a 100 degree weather Foster loves to wear his Power Ranger costume hiking!! Love them!!

 

Bridger had his 1st loose tooth! He lost it right after he started school. Mike decided to us the pilers.. not sure why.. but it came right out!

I love the new toothless smile! He now lost the other one last month in September!

We had a Family reunion up at my parents and they had a sweet Parade and fair in there little town. They had a chicken chase and Bridger was so upset he didn't catch the chicken, but his older cousin Payton ended up catching one. Payton couldn't take it home, and my parents couldn't keep it, so we ended up taking it over to my parents neighbors. Bridger was so sad that we couldn't keep it and still talks about Lucky the chicken.


Here Lucky being released and she is being serenaded by the Rooster Jackie Chan!

This is on a hike up Farmington canyon. We hiked to a waterfall. It was kinda scary in some areas.

 
 

The boys caught some snails at Grandma Shari's house, and were so very excited!

Bridger got stung on the eye and hand and swelled up like crazy!! It lasted almost a week!!



 
They had a fish catch in Afton. It was crazy!!

We went up and camped at Monte Cristo this summer. It was really fun. We woke up early and went on a beautiful hike.
