It was bound to happen

We have lived in our new home for about 2 months now
& we are trying to get settled in our new ward. It's been very hard to get to know people being that it's now cold and everyone is inside. So far we have liked everyone we have met and we are hoping to make life long friends here just like in our old neighborhood.
As you all know I have 3 boys so scouts has and will be a big part of our lives. I knew eventually I would end up a den leader in scouts since I do have 3 boys. Well, that time has come. I have to admit that it isn't something I looked forward to and I didn't jump up and down for joy when I received this calling but I am making the best of it and really going to work. Each week I grow to enjoy the boys more and more, they really are cute good boys. The best part is that I will get to spend time with Conner & he is soooo excited to have mom in there with him. I think that I will end up really enjoying this, maybe even the gorgeous yellow scout shirt I get to sport each and every week.

Halloween Fun


Let's just say that I can be kind of a Halloween-Humbuggar (made up my own word). I don't like spending so much money just for one night but I must say that every year it ends up being really fun and it is more than one night.
We had our annual pumpkin carving & dinner party at my mom's house. The boys absolutely look forward to this every year and it was extra fun this year because Grandma and Cal where in town to participate.

Coby carved both he and Kelbi's this year since she would rather play babies with her cousins.

The final product!
We went to our ward party where the kids had a yummy dinner, played games, and best of all got to do trunk or treat.

No masks for the ward party or the parade at school so Conner got major painted up and we did transformer symbols on Coby's cheeks.

Does this just make you want to pee your pants laughing? My dad has been driving the school bus since he retired and he dressed up as an 8 ball for the junior high kids he drives around.

Speechless...............just speechless! I love it, he is the best dad ever!
This is my scary skeleton, Transformer, and my little lady bug! Cade was way to cool for dressing up and trick or treating this year!
We had a great night trick or treating, then Grandpa and Grandma came over with a special treat and we watched bat man until the little ones all fell asleep and darn why did I not take a picture of that! I do really love holidays!
