Halloween

We had a great time for Halloween this year. We had a trunk or treat with our church, we had Halloween with Grandma and Grandpa Bake and the cousins, and we got fun shirts from Grandma Clayson. We had a good time carving pumpkins, and had a fun Family Home Evening that Josh helped me plan with ice-cream cookies, candy corn, and giant cookies.

Look at these scary faces!

First Snow

We had our first snow in October, and the kids had a good time playing outside. It didn't last very long, but while it was there, they played and played.

MIA

Yes, once again we have been missing in action. Sorry, life has been crazy, and on top of that, my camera battery charger has not been working, thus no pictures to post and not as much fun without pictures. So, no more excuses, here is what's going on with us lately.

Last month Shane got offered a promotion, and we decided to take it. So, next month, we will be moving to Oregon. Shane will be the station manager at a new station they will be building shortly. We are excited to be moving closer to our families, and to be back in the west by mountains, rivers, and outdoor opportunities. Our children are excited to move, too, which is a bonus. We worried about how they would take it. We are now in the process of house hunting, which is throwing us a few bumps, but I'm sure will work out soon. Our house is now on market, and we have decluttered and cleaned until things sparkle. Then, of course, the kids come home and it goes out the window. => But we are excited for this opportunity and look forward to starting new.
