Elliot Praying

Here is a video of Elliot saying his prayers before bedtime. It is pretty cute!!

Happy Halloween!!

We had a great Halloween! Elliot really got into Trick or Treating this year. Here are a few pictures of the kids dressed up in their costumes. We had a very cute little dragon and bee!!

We went over to Ryan and Lorelei's and their neighbors go all out for Halloween. The next pictures are of the kids in their yard.

Jack-O-Lantern

I was gone this year when the kids carved pumpkins, so I didn't get any pictures. Here is a picture of the pumpkin Gavin carved. The rest are pictures of Elliot and Whitney enjoying the pumpkin. Thanks for carving our pumpkin for us Gavin!

Elliot loved looking at the candle burning in the pumpkin. This was also his favorite part of pumpkin carving last year.

The Pumpkin Patch

While Whitney and I were in MT last weekend Grant took the boys to a pumpkin patch. It looks like they had a lot of fun. They got to pick out pumpkins, climb on hay bales, climb through tube slides and see some baby animals.

We are in trouble now!!!

We now have two children that are on the move! Here is a video of Whitney crawling. I apologize if it makes you dizzy. I had to keep moving back so the video bounces around alot.

10 Months

Whitney at 10 months old! She has had a very big month. She got her first 2 teeth (the 2 bottom center ones), started crawling, climbing stairs, clapping, and waving bye bye. A video of her crawling will follow.

Booya

The first weekend in October my parents came for Booya. Booya is an annual event that my Aunt Jeanie and Uncle Tom host at their house. They have a big pot of Booya (like stew), a keg, and a huge bonfire. It is an event that I have been going to every year now since I moved to MN.

My aunt had a bunch of gords and pumpkins which made a great place for a photo shoot of the kids. Of course I would have loved to of gotten a family picture or a picture of both kids together, but of course that didn't happen.
