Ward Halloween Party

Our ward had a chili cook off and trunk or treat party for the kids. The boys found some costumes around the house, and this is what we came up with. It was a cold night, so I was happy to sit in the suburban and pass out the candy while Jason took the boys around to the cars. Nothing like eating candy for a month for the Halloween season! The boys friend Sophie had a party in her backyard and these are some photos of the activities they had. The boys had a great time as they always do down at the Bunch's!

Vala's Pumpkin Patch

Our dear friends Mia and Bruce hosted a great night at Vala's with a fire pit to keep up warm. We had so much fun bouncing on big pillows of air, riding hay rides, watching the pigs race, roasting marshmellows, getting scared in the haunted house, and riding bikes way to big for us! Thank you Mia for a night to remember!

The First Broken Arm

We were all outside enjoying a beautiful fall afternoon. The boys were riding their bikes and scooters up and down the street. Spencer was on the electric scooter. He came around a corner and lost control of it and he went FLYING! He broke his fall with his left hand and did a few rolls. I knew the minute I picked him up that it was broken. It turned out to be broken in 2 places and the bones had moved, so it had to be set. We are so blessed to have a dear friend and Bishop who is an Orthopedic Surgeon. He came over to the ER and set it for Spencer. Spencer had a tuff time coming out of the sedation, so Jason and he spent over 6 hours in ER before they could come home. I felt like I had a new born again last night because Spencer slept with me and woke up 4 times to go to the bathroom. I had to take him because we were worried he would fall over with his equallibrium being off from the meds. Can you tell he is thrilled that I am taking his picture to document this for him?
