Halloween Spooks!!


Joelle and Addie came to Trick-or-Treat us. Joelle helped us carve a pumpkin . . . well not really. She kept saying, "Eoww . . . that's gross, isn't it." I drew a wolf on one of the big pumpkins and Dad (Roger) carved it. For some reason it turned out to look like a "Y"???

Katherine and Steve took their kids to the Friday night trick or treating down town Nampa. So of course they had to stop by Stephanie's office. Stephanie at first wondered who Katherine was and then she saw Steve. One of her co-workers asked Steph if her sister was like her and went to church. :) She looked pretty good!



Joelle is Sleeping Beauty and Addie is Tinkerbell.

Steve is a lumberjack and Katherine . . . well she looked good whatever she was.
Emma is Rapunzell, Mary is Little Red Riding Hood, and Grant is like his Dad.

Hope everyone had a HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

We've been Boo-ed!!

Last week Lucas called and he told me about getting "Boo-ed" I thought it was such a cute idea that I "Boo-ed" a couple people at work and a couple in our ward. Jennilyn is feeling VERY pregnent lately and has had all the symptoms of her body getting ready for their new baby. She called and asked if her and the girls could come over yesterday and I wanted to keep the girls entertained so Jennilyn could get a little break.

The girls helped me clean up the dog poop in the back yard, we practiced writing their names, and then we made cookies so they could go "Boo" Emma and Mary. I hope they had fun because I did. Addie ate more dough and frosting then she made into cookies but that goes along with baking with Grandma!

Joelle told us that she was going to take the cookies to Emma and Mary, ring the doorbell and hide. Then she said she was going to jump out and say "Surprise"!! She was so excited but when we got there the Steve Garner family was gone. We still snuck into their house and put the cookies on the table with the "We've been Boo-ed" note. Addie fell asleep on the way back to Grandma's house but I took a picture anyway.

Funny Kids!

Grant wasn't too sure about the skeleton. It made him a little nervous.









I just read Diana's blog and I have to dito what she said. I love listening to the prophets. I liked all of them but was really touched by the strength of Elder Holland's. If you missed is go to lds.org and listen. It will mean a lot more to watch it then to read it when the Ensign comes out. Not that reading is a bad thing but when I was listening to him, I could feel the spirit and knew that what he was testifying of was the truth.

Last Saturday Katherine brought the kids over so she could go to Steve's band compitition. I enjoyed the kids very much and here are some pictures of them helping me decorate for Halloween.



The kids also wanted to see if they would fit in Uncle David's very large missionary suitcase. They did!
