Halloween dress-up

We had our Marshall Halloween party tonight.  We all love dressing up and most of us keep our costumes a secret until the night of the party.

Burke was a sheep farmer and I was his sheep!

Kendra was me when I was in high school on the Las Chalitas Drill Team.  Hadley was a Goth skateboarder. 

Kaden was a nerd and Ryan was the Energizer Bunny.

Marshall Halloween Party

We know how to have fun.  Some of us keep our costumes a secret until we show up.  This year Stan grew his hair out for about 4 months for his costume but wouldn't tell anyone what he was going to be.  We bring food and play games.  This is one of my favorite family traditions.

My Mighty Hunters!

Hadley shot his deer yesterday!  They were only on the mountain about 15 minutes when they found it.  He shot him, it went about 30 yards, all the boys helped gut it, and they went home.  It was fun to listen to the little boys talk about watching Burke gut the deer.  Everything's an adventure when you're a young boy.  Hadley was so proud.  This was his second deer.  His last one was a small two point...This one, a monster.  :)

 



Pumpkins

We loaded up the kids and Clay to go to the Big Red Barn in Santaquin.  We went on the hay ride, Ryan ran through the little maze alot, and we got our pumpkins for the year.  On the hay ride back to the barn, we were all having fun and laughing, when Ryan told me, "Don't laugh so loud mom, we're not the only one's here."  I sometimes forget how loud my laugh can be but I didn't think I was being that bad.  Then he told me, " I guess it's ok if you laugh as long as they don't mind."  Ryan always lets you know what he thinks, bless his heart.  It was a little cold but we all had fun.  Then we got an ice cream cone and went home to carve pumkins. 

Lagoon

We went to Lagoon with Penney and Todd and my brother Kelly.  It gets funner each year the older the kids get.  I can't keep up with them any more.  But I can watch them have fun all day.

Ryan's Braces

Ryan got braces on his top four teeth and he looks so cute!
He likes picking the colors of the rubber bands that go around the braces.
