First Snow of the Year

At least we made it past October this time.

 

 

Halloween Time Again

Time for th Fall Festival at the church and trick-or-treating.

Matt went as Steve Nash, Stephanie went appropriately as Nash's #1 fan. Drew kept it simple as Superman. Katelyn was the Barbie Island Princess. Nikki had the best home-made costume ever ("thanks mom and Aunt Emily") as Link from the Legend of Zelda video games. Laura was a ghost bride.

 

 

 

 

Happy 8th Birthday Laura!

 

 

 

 

The Many Moods of Drew

We have plenty of Andrew in a bad mood, but lately he's becoming more fond of smiles and laughs too.

 

 

 

First Day of School 2008

Old hat for Laura (2nd grade), but the real "first day" for Nikki who started Kindergarten.

Days of '47 Youth Parade

Our Herriman South stake was invited to make a float and march in the parade (about a half-mile route). Afterwards there was a carnival with lots of booths, games and blow up slides/jump houses. Some odd characters were around for photo ops too!

 

 

 

 

Andrew, awake and happy

Here is a shot of the kid awake and happy. You can't quite make out his wrinkly toes and fingers, but that's OK, we're sure he'll grow into them soon enough.

Sleepy Kid

 

 

At least some of us liked the carnival
