Happy Thanksgiving

Today we did our 3rd annual Cold Turkey run up City Creek. Scott pushed the boys, and they actually didn't cry most of the time this year. Scott asked Bennett if he wanted to run next year, he is not interested! Besides being a little cold it was a good run. I beat my time from last year, even with a bad back. This is the second year we have worn the turkey hats, which are a enjoyed by the other runners. Some people even want to take their pictures with us. We love this tradition. It is such a great way to start a holiday that you consume more calories than you should. Happy Thanksgiving to all, we love you and are grateful for all you do for our family.

Candy, Candy, Candy

After trick or treating it's a tradition in our family to spread out all your candy

 and lie down in it. 

Aiya was excited to start this tradition.

I hope that Mckenlie is never too old for this tradition.

Bennett is always willing to lay in a pile of candy. 

Especially when he can eat some of it.

Carter and his new love-suckers!

Trick or Treat!

We love trick or treating.  The weather was so nice!  I don't ever remember not having to wear a coat and gloves for trick or treating.  Not this year! Even though it rained a little, it was very warm.  

Bennett and Carter enjoyed a ride from mom and dad!

We trick or treated at Jennifers house with Mckenlie, Beckham and Aiya.

Carter loves Halloween!

Happy Halloween

Brandon carved us designer pumpkins to go along with our costumes.

I think he should win an award.

Stephanie and Jake's Halloween Party

Aunt Stephie and Uncle Jake had a Halloween party.  I was great.  This year we all went as the Backyardigans.  I am Tasha, Bennett is Austin, and Carter is Tyrone.  Aren't we cute?

   

Bennett decorated his own cookie, and he actually got to eat it! 

Grandma Christy (P.E. teacher) helped Carter decorate his cookie. And then Carter put it on his head.  It was a great party! 

                                                                                

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

Unfortunately I didn't get a picture of Stephanie and Jake.  They were Bacon and Eggs.  I think they might have won the costume contest.

School Halloween Program

Bennett had a Halloween program on Thursday morning. It was so cute. They had a parade in their costumes and then sang a couple of songs. Bennett did really well, considering he hadn't attended much of school for the month of October. I was surprised at how well he remembered the songs. This is Bennet with his teacher Ms. Christine. He loves school!
