Trendy XChange

Fun photo-shoot at Trendy XChange
during Priesthood session of Conference.
Megan's friend got to walk the runway wearing
a dress she picked out from the store.:)

General Conference at the Cabin

We watched General Conference on Sunday afternoon at the cabin.
Dale's car almost rolled in the snow on the driveway - we all prayed
hard and Eddie was able to tow him away from the edge - phew!

Emma likes playing in our sandbox

Emma wanted to play in the leaves I was raking - too bad
there weren't very many of them :)

Fall Break

Fun at Jaker's Jack-o-Lanterns

Emma's favorite part was the maze -
she had to go over and over and over...

The corn pit was HUGE and fun!

We went on a few hay rides - fun!  The best thing is
everything was free at Jaker's (except the pumpkins)

Fun haunted hallway under the hay and slides

Big Pig

Three-legged goat - crazy!

Discovery Museum in SLC

Emma's favorite - the wind tunnel

Zachary loved posing as a weatherman

Outside by the fountains of the Gateway Mall

Pioneer Museum

My ancestor, William Carter, was the first man to plow a 1/2 acre in SLC

BYU Homecoming Spectacular

We loved the BYU Homecoming Spectacular -
Eddie got 2 seats close to the front where Megan and I got
to sit near President Samuelson and Elder L. Tom Perry.
Eddie, Zachary, and Emma sat further back, but we all
thought it was the best performance ever!

BYU Homecoming Parade

Miss Provo (in our ward - Sasha) is on this float

I made a poster for Pack Meeting and made a "Cheer" box full
of funny cub scout cheers

Some treats I made for the Young Women - pumpkin rice crispies,
homemade caramel dip with apples, and candy

Emma just loves feeding the ducks at the park near
our house in Provo:)

Reflections Art Contest

Zachary took a photo of the Provo City Center Temple
under construction and won an Award of Excellence for it

Megan took a cool photo of a dandelion titled,
"Some see a weed, Some see a wish" - don't know yet
if she won anything...

Megan took this photo - I love the fall colors - Joshua knows
one chord now on the guitar:)

Eagle Award Ceremony

Our nephew/cousin got his Eagle - at 13 years old!

Zachary had fun on the rope swing in the yard after the ceremony

Black Island Farms in Layton

We had so much fun with our nephews/cousins

PHS Halloween Dance

(Girl's Choice)

Joshua got invited to his high school Halloween Dance with
a bag of candy bars and he had to spell out who it was from - then
he responded with candy, too, and she had to spell out what was in
the blank: "It would be a ____ to go to the dance with you" (TREAT)

They had fun with several other couples before the dance

Happy Halloween!

Megan carved most of this cute monster pumpkin:)

I made some Halloween cookies and popcorn

Our cute front porch

We trick-or-treated on Center Street and they had a cute photo station.
Emma was a scarecrow again - costume I made last year:)

Halloween dinner

Megan made the eyes - fun trunk decorations for Trunk-or-Treating,
and we didn't even win a prize

I borrowed a witch costume from a friend - it was a little small, but cute

Beautiful Halloween sunset from our church parking lot

Then we had fun at the Provo Rec Center with more candy and games:)

Zachary was a cool "Thor" for Halloween
