Halloween

I came to Utah a week early just in case the twins came....they didn't... good thing cuz Mindy didn't want them to have a Halloween birthday... and it would have spoiled Mindy's costume.  We went over to Ally's school for the Halloween parade.  




Ally is sitting over there shading her eyes.  It was a nice warm day.
 I loved this family's costumes.  Very clever

Tanner with his best friend Preston.
 All ready for trick or treating.

Apple Pickin


We have made this Oak Glen trip a yearly tradition.  It started out just our family going up there with Mindy and the kids.  Last year we had Todd and Madison and Grandma... this year Jarom & Holly and Eric & Rosa and the kids came along too.  We pick apples and pay way too much for them and then we make apple juice.  It's worth it just for the experience and just having family time.  It was a really nice day up there.  We missed the morning session of conference and we were getting text messages from family asking if we were watching.... our prophet announced that young men can serve a mission at the age of 18 instead of 19.  And the girls can go at the age of 19 instead of 21.  So amazing to see this change.  There must me a great need for the work to speed up.  





























It was a hard day for little Eva.
