Our favorite park:

Conference!

These 3 will quietly play on their Leapsters together... so cute.

Leaves at Grandma & Grandpa's house!

In the apple tree!

Aaron & Kiri's Nathan's blessing day:

Kate was feeding Connor little pieces of food for SO LONG.  They were so stinkin' cute.

And my beautiful mother with her 28th grandchild, sweet Man-of-the-day Nathan

Then we go to Kimmy's house for dinner:

And Halloween is here!

Supergirls with Ellie:

Our 6th grade skeleton:

Our handsome 4th grader:

Trick-or-Treating time!!!

The spoils:

So here's some more pictures!

Halle Beth on the basketball court.

On our camping hike, Halle wanted a picture by the purple flowers.

Kierste wanted hers, too.

Driving home from camping.

Carlie's birthday fell on the 2nd day of our Last-of-the-summer Jackson Hole vacation.  She answered a knock at the door, and received her acceptance letter to Hogwarts School of Wizardry... she's turning 11, after all.

Connor eating his McGriddle at the lodge hotel.

All my boys wrestling around in a pile.

We decided that on this trip,

we weren't just driving past cool things on our rush to something else. 

We got out of the car & inspected said cool things closer. 

This lake of lily pads was worth it.

And the obligatory crazy picture...
there IS this alternate reality for every picture I take,

but does it make it to publishing?  Rarely. 

Just to our scrapbooks:  the reason we take them.

It's October, people.  How did that happen!?!
