Halloween Pics


We had LOTS of opportunity to celebrate Halloween here--school Trunk or Treat, and then the girls went to a three different trick or treat nights in different neighborhoods.  Someday we'll do a group family costume, but until then, here is a ninja, black cat, Statue of Liberty, leopard/cheetah, Hydroflask (yes, the actual water bottle) and an avocado.

Fall Wrap-Up

It's been a full season for us!  Here are a few of the highlights:

1) Brinnly and Carrigan played volleyball!  It was Carriagn's first time playing a school sport ever and Brinnly's first time on the (much-harder) 7th and 8th grade team.  They both did well and really had fun.  It was so fun watching Brinn teach Carrigan how to over hand serve and to hear the "thud" of the volleyball on the garage door.  We also loved hearing the other kids shout "Go Conky" as Carrigan was at the serving line.

2) We had visitors!  Grandma Sandy and Grandpa came to visit and brought apples and cider!  We just love this picture showing how healthy Grandpa looks and feels now.
3) Grandma Deni was our next visitor!  And since it was October, it meant it was time for pumpkin carving.  They turned out great!

4)  We took advantage of having her here to have family photos taken.  We love how they turned out! We did bribe Grant by telling him that if he posed normally for the family shots, he could stand like a Power Ranger for his individual one.
5)  We are all proud to announce that Jonathan accepted a new position as Vice President of Development Integration at Altius Building Company.  That called for a dinner at our favorite celebratory restaurant--Shwarma House!
