Halloween

We had our annual pumpkin carving party with friends.  Mckenna was very particular about her pumpkin and new exactly what she wanted.

Brielle wanted a "B"

They both wanted to be black cats this year. Which is kind of funny, because Brielle is terrified of animals, especially cats :)

They love to dress up. 

The candy isn't a bad bonus either. :)

Brielle wanted a picture with her tail. These girls had so much fun!

Fall

Our house has two huge trees in the front, which makes for a beautiful fall! And, lots of leaves to play in! Devin made a big "nest" for the girls to play in. They had a blast. Can you find them in all of the leaves?

... and this was just the first raking of the year...

October

Before the Saturday session of General Conference, we ran to the store to get donuts. I'm ashamed to admit that on the way there, Mckenna asked me what a donut was... :)

She enjoyed it, especially her sugary fingers.

and we all know that Brielle is all about the sweets :)

So, with Devin teaching early morning seminary, he is so tired! He falls asleep on the couch every night while he is preparing his lesson. He is working so hard and is so busy. The girls get about an hour with him every night between when he gets home from work and when they go to bed. The girls take advantage of every second they have with him... even if he is asleep. This is what they were doing one night...

Don't worry, those are clean diapers :). They decided to put diapers on his head, and he didn't even wake up. So they decided to sit on him too, which he also slept through! We are proud of Devin and his hard work. He definitely takes advantage of his days off and the weekend to make up for any lost time with the girls. We are so blessed.
