Happy Halloween

-

We had another candy filled Halloween!  To start, Diana and I went to the trick-or-treat story time at the County Library where we trick-or-treated with the cutest toddlers in town inside the Morgan County building.  Then I had too much fun helping with John's 1st Grade class party.  I was in charge of the relay Jack-O-Lantern Roll and Draw game.  We had a blast!  After school the whole family made sure to go to the annual Commercial Street business trick-or-treat.  Then we headed to Grandma Phillips' where Diana learned to twirl while running from house to house in the Circle.  And last, but not least, we ran up and down our neighborhood growing our candy haul.  It was a super fun and lucrative day for these kids!

Loyd as "Loyd Christmas" from the movie Dumb and Dumber
Xavier as a sniper
Maeve as "N" from Murder Drones, an animated show. She designed and made her costume all on her own (with help from Grandma Phillips, of course!)

Owen as a Black Ops army guy

John as Rubble from the TV show Paw Patrol

Diana as the cutest witch!  
Her costume is over 40 years old. Just about everyone has worn it in the family, including me!

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

We Returned to a Blessing

We came home to a HUGE blessing. Our house is still here and didn't sustain much damage. We just have to rebuild a portion of our fence and clean up dead branches and we are good to groove again. We don't have power yet, but I anticipate that it will come online soon. Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. I know the Lord greatly blessed us on this one. We came home and made sure we gave a prayer of thanks for His mercy on us. We hope we can get out there and start helping folks who didn't fair as well as we did soon. Here are some pictures of our home:
