Feeding the ducks with Emma's friend

Emma and her friend loved their capes and masks - we needed
a cape for Emma's Anna costume and just bought her this set
and then  her friend wanted one, too :)

Provo High Halloween Dance

Cute Harry Potter themed poster asking Joshua
to the Provo High Halloween Dance

Megan helped make Joshua's response to the Girl's Choice Halloween Dance
using the same Harry Potter theme

Megan is so creative - love her poster! She also made ghost sugar cookies that
had letters that spelled her name out, but they were all mixed up

Her date answered with this note and chocolate peanut butter eyeballs all
over our front porch - so yummy :)

Megan and I made these costumes - Megan is a darling Alice in Wonderland!

We had fun finally seeing the new Bean Museum and enjoyed
their Halloween-themed family night

Emma is a cute "Anna" from the Disney movie "Frozen"

Cute "Frozen" character pumpkins

We trick or treated with our friends at the Riverwoods Mall

And we also trick or treated on Provo Center Street

Zachary and Emma had fun at the Provo Rec Halloween Carnival

Guess who got her license??

Megan is proud of her new Driver's License :)

Emma loves to wear her dance clothes, and she
loves her birthday toy - a Leap Pad Mobigo 2

Last fun with the cousins before they moved to CA

Zachary enjoys Cub Scouts

Emma enjoyed her Tumbling Tots class,
as well as Zumba and Yoga at the Provo Rec

Emma liked to play at the Provo Rec playground after her classes

We enjoyed a play at BYU "The Fisherman and His Wife" with
Zachary and Emma, and met the characters afterwards

Fun at Provo High football game

We got nice pears and tomatoes from our garden

And nice raspberries

I won the "Best Tasting Overall" award for my chili - again -
at our Ward Chili Cookoff :)

Joshua having fun with Emma - he's wearing his white shirt
that he wears with a tie to work at Supersonic Car Wash - crazy uniform!

Emma enjoying BYU Preschool

Megan took this photo and added the wording after she heard from
her dad at our Stake Conference that we should all use social media
more to share the gospel - she posted it on Facebook.

PHS Homecoming

Megan got asked to Homecoming by a good friend of Joshua (and Megan)

Megan's response to being asked to Homecoming (the "Y" balloon is hidden)
She also had soda from Sodalicious, glow sticks and a box of SweetTarts with her answer.

At the Homecoming Game

Joshua and Megan were in the same group of Homecoming

couples, and they had fun jeeping during the day, and after getting 

ready they took photos, ate at Texas Roadhouse, went to the dance, and then

they all came to our house to hang out for a while

Megan found her dress first thing at 2Love, but we decided to look at more places to see
all the options.  When nothing else was as good, we went back and found out
all the dresses like it were sold out.  We finally tracked one down to a store in
Layton, and they were nice to send it to the Orem store for us and give us a discount
 - thanks 2Love!  Then Megan found ribbon for a tie (since the one with the dress was missing)
and matching shoes and made a necklace with roses of the same color and pearls.  She looked
beautiful!  Joshua looked handsome, too!
