 Happy Halloween!


It was a bit of a soggy Halloween for us this year, with over 5.5 inches of rain falling that day, but we had fun anyway.  After a quick dinner of pizza we headed off to the church building for a fun Trunk-or-Treat activity combined with our friends in the Seabrook Ward.  Then we rushed home to dump out our full treat bags and head out into the drizzle with our new friends, the Higleys, to trick-or-treat our neighborhood.  It was rainy and wet, and the puddles were sizable, but we sure had fun giggling and running from house to house and jumping over giant puddles in the dark!  It was a fun, memorable night for all! 

Trick-or Treat!

It's About Time We Got Some Snow Around Here

It's been a bit of a warm and dry winter, until our latest epic snow storm!!  We didn't get as much snow as high elevations, but I'm happy with 9 inches in 3 days.  Diana is all in when it comes to playing in the snow, the little boys have been busy as beavers digging snow forts, and Maeve has found that digging out snow paths with her friend Lilly is a great way to "chill" during the afternoon.  :D  The big kids have been busy helping Dustin and I keep the street shoveled out.  Dustin wakes up early every morning to use my Dad's snow plow to clear all of the sidewalks on our street  before the kids have to walk to school. The kids and I have been working hard to keep our driveway and the driveways of some of our elder neighbors cleared after all of this wonderful snowfall.  It's been a fun wintertime treat.  The ward to the child who shoveled the most for this storm goes to Rebekah!  She's a pretty awesome snow shoveler despite her preference for warm

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
