Halloween!

We had our ward Halloween party, yesterday and we all dressed up. We had a chili feed, so I made some and we had a cookie contest, Samantha made some no-bakes. After eating, the kids went to the church parking lot for the Trunk or Treat.
Samantha was a southern belle, I did her hair in ringlets. Zachary was Indiana Jones. Parker was a Clone Trooper commander. Jessica was an 80's girl, she asked me what she should wear, that was kind of sad to be the informant for a costume.


We enjoy dressing up, at least I know I do. I did have a wig for the costume but my head is too big because it did not fit. Oh well.



Tonight, Andrew took the boys out. Andrew had this Detective cape that he got for scouts so he wore that. The boys had fun. Samantha went out with her friends and Jessica went to a party.
Until next Halloween, don't eat too much candy!

Zac's B-day!

Here are some of the activities at Zachary's birthday!

The boys are all here for Zachary's 8th birthday




They did an obstacle course. They had to make a basket with at least 1 Nerf ball.

Sam is demonstrating the balance beam




These guys are trying to block a soccer goal by one of the other boys.


I think their favorite activity was trying to find the golden coins in the beans. I don't know if they found them all.

Zachary loved all the gifts he received.


Zachary blew out his name in candles. Sorry there was not eight of them.

Parker and the girls are enjoying one of Zachary's gifts.

We are excited for Zachary to turn eight! Zachary will be baptized on Nov 1st!

Scouts and Soccer

Zachary is 8 years old now, so he went to his first Pack meeting. Andrew loves having both of his sons in scouts.


Zachary has been playing soccer. He has been doing well, and I think he enjoyed himself.

Parker loves to play soccer. He goes after the ball and has lots of fun!

Samantha has been playing soccer also. Soccer is over for the season, yeah! Soccer will begin again in the Spring, we are happy this break has come!
