House Update #2

The framing of our house should be done tomorrow and they are starting to wire the electrical stuff on Thursday. It's coming along:)

Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving this year with the Wyatt's. Roy and Brenda were good sports and hosted Thanksgiving even though they had only been home a couple days. The kids played, we ate well, and the men watched the kids so the women could do a craft (Thanks Paige for planning it!). We missed Jed/Jami and Roger/Alicia and are excited to see them at Christmas time!

Grandma and Grandpa came home!

On November 20th at 11:00 pm Roy and Brenda flew in. 

We had quite the crowd waiting, and it was so fun to see them again. 

House Update #1

We are building a house.

We have been ready for two months with our floor plans, but our builder is swamped and said it would be a couple months before he could start on ours.

Last week they poured foundation.

The framers are coming on Tuesday.

Hooray!

Scriptures.

Kyson loves the scriptures. 

Before naps and bedtime I usually let him pick three books to read. The scriptures are always one of them. Sometimes when we are short on time I tell him he can only have one. He always picks the scriptures.

His favorite scripture stories are Ammon, Nehor/Gideon, Captain Moroni and Nephi/Laman. They all are stories where fighting and killing is involved. But I tell myself that he is getting the spiritual lesson behind the violence:)

The other day I went to check on him during his nap and I found him like this.

He sure is a sweet good boy.

Halloween

We went down to my family's for my Mom's Halloween party.

Kyson loved it.

We came up with really original costumes. Clark and I were nurses and James was a sick patient.

Kyson wanted to be a pirate again...his costume from last year still fit. So we went with it!

Nathan and Brigham

Miss America and her body guards

Aubrey...the librarian.

Old McDonald and his animals.

Kyson decided he liked Eden's costume better, so she was nice enough to share it with him all night.

This one is from Halloween night. He decided he wanted to be a witch pirate. We went to a couple friends out where we live, and then went in and trick-or-treated in Don and Angie's neighborhood. Kyson thought it was so fun to run from house to house...and couldn't believe that everyone was giving him candy.
