Taylor is moving along with his boy scouts, he went to a court of honor last week and earned his scouts. He's liking scouts and we're proud of him.
Emily went on her birthday date with G & G Shields last week. She was happy and picked a good book and went out for frozen yogurt etc.. We're so lucky to have them as our neighbors. 

I took Lizzie and her friend to the Red Butte Gardens this week. It was a really nice, warm day. They had fun running around and getting their energy out. The gardens are so beautiful right now and it was a great outing. 

This week is all about Halloween! We grew out own pumpkins this year, it was fun and they go pretty big! So big that they were hard to carve, so we painted them this year. The kids liked it, but we missed having roasted pumpkin seeds. 

We had a full week of Halloween festivities.
School parades, parties, programs, school carnival, Bday parties,
and more! The kids were happy and excited about it all and we al had a crazy, fun, busy, wild week!

On halloween day we had a nice, relaxing Saturday and got ourselves ready for a fun night of Trick - O - treating! The kids got their costumes all ready. Lizzie decided on her pirate costume again. 

We have such a fun, amazing neighborhood and we all really enjoy celebrating Halloween together. We always have a big pot luck dinner with all of our friends and neighbors. Then we head out to Trick -O - Treating.  Later we get together for donuts, and hot cocoa which is the perfect way to end the night.

It was fun to have Mike, Erin & Skylar with us. It's always wonderful to see them. Skylar is super cute!
Danny had a funny costume of being a BYU fan! It was hilarious. 

Sunday was the baby blessing for James William Shields. He's a darling little baby and so sweet. It was fun to see everyone at his blessing and go to church with B & T. 

Here's to November!
