Halloween Pumpkin Carving

Well we have now carved our first real family Jack-O-Lantern. Logan and Ashley helped by doing the design and I acted as the contractor and did as I was told by the designers. I think that it turned pretty good but I am a little byas.

Logan was pretty excited to do the pumpkin carving but not to touch the "guts" of the pumpkin.

Yeah for All Hallows Eve

What we've been up to

Logan turned 3 on September 30th. We had a party fo rhim with family the following Sunday. Logan was so excited for his presents and couldn't believe they were all for him. He was very polite and gave a very enthusiastic "Thank You!!" to everyone.

Daddy shared the Mike and Ike with Logan. Logan tried to fit as many as he could in his mouth before the box was taken away again!

Lyla has 7 teeth and each one is a sweet tooth. She loved the peach shakes we made with fresh peaches from great grandma's tree. She was very upset when it was all gone.

Our pretty girl learning to walk. She sees all the other kids running around and can't wait to join them. It makes her so happy to be up and "walking" around with the big kids.

Lyla loves to play patty cake. Also notice the baggie of gummi bears at her feet. She was trying to eat the gummi bears through the plastic bag and we had to play patty cake to distract her long enough to get the gummis away.

Visit From Friends

Our Friends Brian, Melanie, and Ben came to Utah to visit and attend conference. We had lots of fun catching up. We miss them already and can't wait to see them again!
We went to Cabella's to see the guns and other "manly stuff." The boys were good and didn't purchase anything. Logan and Lyla loved the animals and all the fish in the big tanks. The big Polar Bear scared Logan, though.

In the car for the long drive down south.

A sign of good friendship...we took them to the BYU campus so they could reminisce and get some stuff from the bookstore. This is the classroom where their love story began! Awww, how sweet!
