The Low-Down

This is what's going on at our house....

....well, we are still in our house, no news on selling it yet!! We just lowered our price and have another open house tomorrow...here's hoping!


....Tami and I did our first craft show last weekend. It was the first of the fall/winter season and it was fun as usual! We love getting to spend time with the PUGS for a weekend. We've got more craft shows coming soon!

....The ward halloween party was spooktacular! Carson was SOOOO excited to go to the party and dress up in his tiger costume (thanks Gma Loveridge for making that 20+ years ago...he LOVES it!). Brynlee was a cute lion (with a bow in her mane, of course). Since we had a couple of animals, Dan and I dressed up as zookeepers. The party was great...chili, cornbread, treats, a costume parade, and trick-or-treating...what fun!!!


....Brynlee is walking more and more and getting quite good at it. She has been very adventurous in learning to walk and as most 2nd children, does her best to try to keep up with the older kids. Carson is still so sweet with her and plays with her and tries to keep her out of trouble. Sharing has been slightly difficult lately, but we're working on that.
....Carson LOVES halloween and has been so fun lately. He is always wanting to go see "scary guys" at walmart or sam's club....or look at his costume magazine (the flyer that came in the mail from Party City)....or put on his Tiger costume....or his Devil mask....or watch the Scooby Doo halloween show....or read a Halloween book....he LOVES halloween!!! I can't wait to go trick-or-treating with him.


....We had fun going to Larriland Farm. We've been going there for the last few years and this year they had made some nice improvements to the farm. We had perfect weather for a fun hayride through the forest. We also enjoyed a yummy apple fritter and some hot apple cider...yum!


....A few weeks ago I bought tickets to go visit my sister in Wisconsin with the kids. We'll be going for 10 days. Although slightly anxious about the plane ride there, I CAN'T WAIT to have some fun time with my sister. I sure wish we lived closer!!!


....The nursery kids got to sing "I Am A Child of God" in the primary program yesterday. Carson was so cute going up there and singing. When he came back down to our seat he said "I did it!"....so cute!



....Here's something funny Carson said lately:
me: Do you know what grandpa Loveridge's name is?
Carson: ummmmmm, nope
me: It's Woody!
Carson: Nooo (with a cute smirk)
me: no, really it is...his name is Woody! Do you know what grandpa Simmons' name is?
Carson: BUZZ!!!!


....Something cute that Bryn has said lately: Wha-a-a-a (said spooky like; she'll mimic Carson doing it...so cute!)


Okay, that's all for now.

Love the pictures. Your kids are adorable. I died laughing with Carson's ingenious deduction that if one grandpa's name is Woody, the other must be Buzz. So cute.

Cute Halloween costumes! How fun that Carson is so into Halloween!

Funny, clever Carson with his name deduction! I think I'll start calling Rulon "Buzz." (Too bad that Rulon recently left Utah denying me the chance to use it on him right away!)
