Happy Halloween!

Fall Bike Ride

Last fall we visited Jared and Trina in Boise and rode our bikes along the Boise River. It was so much fun, we decided that we needed to do that this year along the Provo River while the leaves were still changing. It was such a beautiful day, and the boys were fantasitc. I worried a little about Dallin, but he made it up most of the hills better than I did. We had a great day!

This is what Erik's hair looked like after our ride. (He got a haircut that night!)

This is the Place

We decided to stay home over UEA this year, so a little field trip was in order. We went up to "This is the Place" park with my mom, grandma, Kellie and Mack. It was all decorated for Halloween, and they had fun trick-or-treating for the kids. They also had all sorts of crafts and fun things for the kids to make. The boys dipped candles, rode horses, got their faces painted, walked through the "haunted" forest, and got to ride on the big and little train. We were lucky to have such beautiful fall weather. We were getting ready to come home and Jaxson said, "Wow! I can't believe it has been 4 hours. It seems like we just got here." That tells me they had a good time!

Remodel

Yeah! We are almost done. Our little project to remodel the upstairs bathroom turned into a bigger project of refinishing the kitchen cabinets and knocking out a wall in the entryway. We started back in July, and it has been crazy living out of our basement. Besides a few knobs and cabinets that are still being finished, (and painting!) we are almost done and back to normal.

These are a few pictures of the kitchen and bathroom before we started.

These are a few of the after pictures.

Happy Birthday Spencer & Dallin

Here we are in October and I have yet to write anything about our two September birthday boys. We were lucky to be able to celebrate Spencer's 2nd birthday up in Boise. Trina was so cute to make him special birthday pancakes. I have a darling video, but I have still not figured out how to get our videos to load. He also got to have two fun parties at his grandma's houses. Dallin turned 5 on the 17th and we are so proud of him. He is very obsessed with BYU right now, so he got some fun things to show off his "Cougar Pride!" He also got a brand new bike that is more his size. We were able to celebrate at Kangaroo Zoo with some of his cousins. It was a fun month!
