And then came Thanksgiving...

November was just as busy if not busier, but then do things ever really slow down?!? Robert helped our ward with the Turkey Pit, that they do every year and Jon came to put in a turkey for his family as well. Shelley & Luke got to see the big fire being lit but then Luke got droopey and they went home. We did some Black Friday shopping with Stephanie but the only one of that went out into the crazy-early-morning madness was Robert.

Luke is busier than ever himself. He loves his toys and when we are away for a few hours he has to check on them when he gets back. He gets into draws and cupboards while Mom follows around picking up things. He loves remote controls and keys!!! He must be related to his DADDY. He also says "DA" a lot now. But then he loves his Daddy and who wouldn't???

Busy Halloween Season

Well, Halloween is come and gone, and it was a busy one for us. We went with a bunch of Shelley's family to Schnepf's Farms on Saturday, October 24. Shelley's niece, Disie was visiting us, so she came with us also. We went on a hay ride, saw pig races, and went to a petting zoo. Desie went on a Pony ride and Robert took Luke on a carousel.

On Wednesday, October 28, we went to a fall festival that was organized by our ward. We dressed Luke up in a skunk costume. We had a good time. We invited Robert's sister, Stephanie to come also.

Halloween day turned out to be very busy for us. We went with Ellen's family to a walk to support the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation). We walked for about three miles. Shelley's mom and sister-in-law, Jenny, also came. We parked at a park-and-ride and took the light rail to the Tempe Town Lake Park.








Halloween night, we went to a trunk-or-treat at Shelley's parents' ward. Shelley's brother, Blaine, is also in that ward, so his family was there also. Ellen's family made it too.
