Pumpkins

Our first trip to the Pumpkin Patch with Spud. It was alot of fun - but Steve did mention that it would be more fun with friends - so there is our solicitation for next year! We got some cute pics - enjoy!
And then the carving of course!
We had Todd & Sue's kids over for dinner on Sunday as both parents were out of town at the same time! I didn't think about just how stupid it was to carve pumpkins - with big fat sharp knives - while both their parents were out of town! Luckily - they all left happy and with all their fingers! Spud was so stoked to have his cousins come to his house. He goes to their house to be babysat everyday - so when they showed up at our house he was so excited, but totally confused!

Danny was an amazing helper with the big knives especially! Dan lives with us now by the way.

Keagan helped Spud with his pumpkin before starting on his own. The Mr. Potato Head Pumpkin Push-ins were perfect for Spud - he loved his pumpkin!

The results - minus me and my pumpkin.

Cierra made a cute Superman "S" for her baby sister Saryn.

This one has me and my white skeleton pumpkin.

We had alot of fun and loved having the kids over. Having four kids is alot of work! When the kids are out of school and Spud is at their house, their mom has 5 kids (two of which are babies) - crazy! It's a good thing they usually come one at a time.

Happy Halloween!

Mill Hollow

We spent Friday & Saturday at Mill Hollow! This is the Granite School District Camp that the kids go to. Steve's Grandpa Beckstrom built the place and the Beckstrom family has been going there for many years. It is literally the best place on Earth to all the cousins!

I bought a new shirt this year - couldn't fit my "volleyball" in the old one. Steve's cousin Jesse was impressed with how I carried my volleyball everywhere I went! I am now 37 weeks pregnant - I had a good time despite NO SLEEP!

Me and the Hanson Boys! Dan & Jeff came out from Ely, even though Mom & Dad didn't - we missed them! Notice Jeff had to keep his sunglasses on due to the brightness of his shirt!

These cute girls are Blakely (Cousin Jesse's gal) & Cousin Ronnie's little Addi. Notice the mosquito right on Addi's head - we sacrificed the poor baby for a photo!

Stevie playing guitar with his Uncle Larry - a rare treat! Little Lauren (3) holding the flashlight. She was loving the music and loved helping too!

Larry & Ginnie singing along. The other handsome guitar player is Ginnie's boyfriend, Judd. He is quite talented on the guitar and Steve had alot of fun jamming with him. He doesn't find someone he can be "guitarded" with very often!

A little sampling of the music for the cousins that weren't there! We missed you (even the ones that went to Hawaii instead - we weren't even jealous - we were at Mill Hollow!)
