Neighborhood Pumpkin Carving Party

Yesterday we had a pumpkin carving and BBQ with our neighbors on Firedrake.  The weather was really rainy and windy so we had the event at our house.  Everyone had a great time!  

Here are some pictures from the event.  One of us carving away.  Morgan and her pumpkin and the two pumpkins we carved.

1K Fun Run & Trunk or Treat

We had a busy Saturday.  We started this morning with Morgan & Ethan running a 1K Fun Run.  They both ran really well and had fun.

Then we headed to our Ward Trunk or Treat.  The kids dressed in their costumes, the 3 Chipmunks.  Morgan is Simon, Ethan is Alvin, and Drew was Theodore.  We had chili and games at the church with trick or treating from the trunks of everyone's cars.  Drew was in heaven with all the candy he got.  He just kept smiling and saying Candy....

Jenna's New Haircut

We  had a busy week, especially Jenna.  I was out of town most of the week in Michigan and came back Friday.  I sure missed everyone!  

The big excitement was Jenna's new haircut this weekend.  She came home from the salon and Drew was napping.  When she walked in when he woke up Drew said "Mom Hair."  She got it cut shorter and lightened up a bit.  The color looks great and even though I'm not a fan of shorter hair on Jenna, I'm already loving it.

Tonight Morgan and Ethan are stating overnight at their cousins' (Abraham, Noah, Martha, Enoch, and Peter) house.  They are excited to all be together.  I hope Aunt Kristi & Uncle John get some sleep.

Going For A Run

Morgan, Ethan, Drew and I went for a run last night. Here are some pictures of us stretching in front of the garage and heading down our street.

Morgan is in a program after school called Girls On The Run.  They run twice a week and will run a 5K (3.1 mile) race in December.  Ethan will be running a 1K(over half a mile)on Oct 18th.  Drew loves to run, but mostly has to ride in the jogger stroller while I push him.  We had a good run and the kids enjoy the training we've done.
