Pumpkin party part 2

I should have posted this a while ago, it's just been crazy around here! I did however want you all to see our October fun, after we picked the pumpkins we had the Family Home Evening group all come over to carve the pumpkins, it started out great but ended up being almost all the dad's carving, and the moms mostly running around after the kids, it was super fun even if our pumpkins never did get all the way carved. We'll have to make sure we get better at that before Elliott gets old enough to care!


Not the cutest i've ever looked but oh well, that's just us, with our unfinished pumpkin.

Kip and Kim (they have serious pumpkin carving talent!)


The Bennett's (Morgan,Perry, and Dallin)Tellisa with Conner, and Austin


Brooke with her dad Tom


Now these are from later that week, we all got together for a pre-trick or treating dinner at the Ray's this is all the mom's we get together a lot during the week, with all the kids. We go to church with all of these families, we're so blessed to live in such a great branch! Left to right Morgan, me, Tara, Tonya, Erin, Kim
and Mason is leaving the picture, the cutie pie cow is Piper



Daddies and their kids! Aren't they cuties!


We didn't find a great costume this year, and decided to go to a football game instead of trick or treating so Elliott wore this, no one tell him that he missed trick or treating, I promise we'll take him next year in a proper costume! (but we thought the outfit was cute!
Elliott and Mark watching the game, Elliott loved it, it was fun to see how interested he was in what was going on.

It did get cold later so we bundled little man up, I love this picture!


Just me and cutie, I didn't realize I was squishing his face till we got home :)


And one of the whole family in the freezing cold. . . it was a great night, and that concludes our Halloween festivities! YAY!! I'm catching up!! Sorry there are so many pictures, it's hard for me to choose just a few.

hey there!! I just have to say how cute your little guy is...adorable!! :) We are actually in Boise...well, Nampa really, it is just outside of Boise! We have been here for 2 1/2 years!! We weren't in Portland for very long...just shy of 6 months!! Sorry for the confusion! :) I am so glad we have this blogging stuff to keep us updated! Did you know that Wendy just had her little boy? He had some complications and he wasn't able to come home with her, but he should be home soon she said! As far as Ruby goes, I first ran into her at Costco! (in Nampa!!) And then I ran into her about a week later....at church! She is in our stake, so she is super close! and her little girls are ADORABLE!! Well...I better run, I just wanted to say hey and clarify the living situation! :) talk to you soon! keep the pictures coming!

So happy for you to have so many church friends and that you all do so much together. I can't wait to be able to open my house up to others. SOON, I hope. I just love the Elliott peeking through the blankie picture. It's my new favorite.
