Giving thanks...

Jack kicked off the week with a Thanksgiving feast at school with a bunch of indian friends.



Then we spent the holiday with the Findlay clan at grandma and grandpa's house.

The kids table....

On Saturday, all of the girls got dressed up for the Nutcracker Ballet. It was a great girls day out. The boys went looking at big boy toys-the kind that cost way too much money!

We're so thankful for all of our blessings.

What a wonderful life!

We are thankful for YOU!!

Halloween Haunts....

Yoda, Road Kill (that's a license plate frame on her neck) and the 33 year old red wig rides again as Rodeo Clown....

Jack in Grandma Susan's cute hat...

Our porch on Halloween night...

A couple of parades-

This one is Jack as Anikin at our ward party...

And Cameron's class was running at his school parade (I was lucky to get this picture!)

A few weeks ago we went to "Thriller" at the Eccles Theater in Logan and met some new friends.

Here is Jenna (Melissa's cousin) with a freaky ghoul before the show.

Now that Halloween is over, a couple of radio stations in Utah are playing Christmas music 24 hours a day. Guess we've officially begun the holiday season.

SEASON"S GREETINGS!!!

Fall at Bear Lake

Here are a couple of pretty pictures of the Bear Lake lot in the fall. Thats the trailer, all ready for winter...





Can't wait until spring!!!

Ahh...Autumn!

We grew a couple of really big and bright orange pumpkins in our garden this year.


We wanted more, so we took a hayride with cousins out to another BIGGER pumpkin patch.



Success!!



Jack is a corny kid....

And the only one who would ride the cow/pig train.

Sadly, fall is slip-sliding away too fast! Tomorrow's forecast-SNOW!

Career choices?

Jack started preschool after Labor Day....

He is having a great time learning about different jobs in the community. He's been trying a few of them out too. I'm hoping he'll become a chef, for obvious reasons.



OR... He might decide to follow in his daddy's footsteps and check groceries while he's still in school (working on becoming a chef).



Oh, funny story.... When Jack said his prayers the other day, he asked to "please bless the firemen, policemen and CHEFS to be safe."

Cute.

Perfectly Peachy

We love peaches. Can't seem to get enough of them. As a family we have consumed several large boxes of them during the last month and a half. We canned some, froze some, ate pies made out of them, and served them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even I will admit we're pretty lucky to live so close to lots of sweet, juicy Utah peaches.




In celebration of the fruit, we went to a peach parade...
with large crowds of peach fans like us!


We ate our last peaches of the season yesterday. Crazy, but we're already looking forward to next year's peach crop.
