Happy Thanksgiving!

Okay, so I know its lame that I'm blogging the morning of Thanksgiving but I haven't been to a computer with internet for a week (ours isn't hooked up til Dec 3). So, while I'm here I just want to express my gratitude to my Heavenly Father for all of the blessings in my life-My wonderful sweet, very patient husband; my adorable healthy little boy; my roof over my head; to be close to family and in Idaho again! Also I'm so grateful to Ben's family for all of their love and support from a distance. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! (Ben is know perusing the ads to find what I should by at 4am tomorrow with the girls ha ha)

Halloween Happenings

So these pictures are a little out of order, sorry, but here is a recap of our Halloween a few days late... Above is our little dragon after a full night of trick or treating (3 houses is pretty good for him). Below is a picture of his sweet rewards- one sucker which he knawed on until after we got home (wrapper still on).
Here is a picture of the quad before trick or treating. Uncle Nathan was Darth Vator (sp?). Ben & I were the Redskins- Cooley (Ben) and Portis (me). We actually found another Redskin fan in Idaho on Halloween. We were trick or treating in my mom's neighborhood and some guy called out to us "Go Redskins" and had his jersey on as well. Idaho is now approved of by Ben since other people like the Redskins here too. Too bad they lost last night!
Another picture of our Dragon. Isn't he so cute?
We had a busy week so we didn't get to pumpkin carving until hours before trick or treating commensed. Ben and Nate did the honors. Ben- a football of course, and Nate-your traditional pumpkin face.

We took some family pictures on Halloween because it was a gorgeous night. It was the warmest Halloween I can ever remember in Idaho. Guess I didn't need the extra padding in Hyrum's costume for warmth. Here is a picture that is funny of Hyrum flying.

Here is one of our Family Pics on my mom's couch! Thanks mom for taking some! It gets hard to take pictures of your family by yourself!

Here is one of Hyrum crawling around before trick or treating with his pumpkin hat on.
