A Catch Up Post

We really do do things around here I just get so busy that I forget to write it down, so here goes nothing on a quick catch up.

We love to play at the park at our house so we try and go to different parks as a family.  We had a lot of fun at this one – it just happened it was also hot. Later that day we went to ITZ but I forgot the camera in the car.

At the pack meeting in August Samuel advanced to Wolf and in the September Caleb advanced to become a Webelos – Congrats Samuel and Caleb – good work!  P1014699 

 

 

 

 

 

 

October brought one of my favorite things in the world – general conference and the chance to hear from the prophet and other mouth pieces of the Lord.  We tried something a little different this year adding to our traditions.  We started Saturday with doughnuts and then we watched conference.  Sunday we spent the first session at the chapel and then had Grandma, Nathan and Mandy over for the last session and dinner.  For dinner we continued our tradition of using our china to feast after being provided a spiritual feast.  We also had our yummy popcorn cake tradition during a session.

October also brings Caleb’s birthday!  Caleb is now 10! Wow! He got some great gifts (a little spread out but worth the shipping wait) and had cupcakes one day and cake and ice cream at Grandma Balls.  We sure love Caleb, his crazy and wacky ideas, his hard work and his ability to make us laugh.

The babies make lots of funny faces and are in funny stages of developments. Here are a few pictures of them. The pictures of Marlissa are in just a few seconds – she makes that many different faces in a short time.

The boys have really gotten into making things out of legos – here is a sample.
