October

Here are a few things we did in October....
 

1.  Purposely made  a hole in our stairway wall to get a couch to "fit" downstairs :)



Who knew you could get so excited destroying your own house :)

 

See.... Doesn't that look better than the empty room we had :). 
Now I just need to work on wall decorations and window coverings.

 

2.  Hung out up in Park City with some friends.  Our friends the Duncans had a extra time share they needed someone to use.  It would have been rude of us to say no :)  Not only did we get to hang out with great company, but we also....  ate yummy food, walked Main Street, watched cable, went to a Scarecrow Walk, a park and of course swimming.

Rub a Dub Dub, two Dads in a tub.

The most amazing tree for climbing. 
 Lizzie was in heaven and kept saying how cool the tree was.

 

3.  Nate and Liz came to visit.... I think the picture explains perfectly how excited my kids get. :)

4.  Carved Pumpkins-
My parents came up to help carve pumpkins.  It is noisy and chaotic and something the kids SO look forward to every year.

Getting the "guts" out.

The line-up -
 Jim's, Lizzie's, Ethan's, Lilly's and Afton's.



The pumpkins seem pretty happy about their new look.

 

 

5.  Took the kids to their first corn maze. For some reason our kids have never been.  Actually there is a reason- Since the girls were born, the idea of taking all four to a corn maze sounded too chaotic and nerve wracking for Jim and I.  Luckily our girls are getting easier to take  more and more places the older they get.

Ethan and Afton brave enough to be our leaders

Afton was very curious about the corn.

The kids conferring about where to go next.
