Happy Halloween!!

So, this picture pretty much sums it up!! The combination of teething, a cold, Dad gone at school all day, and finally realizing he was a skunk made for a hard day.

Here we are a little happier without the hat.

Zac the Monkey and Tyler the Skunk: Trying to help each other get that funny nose paint off!

Once we got the boys all dressed up, we headed to our ward's Trunk-or-Treat activity. Yes, I felt a little funny taking around a baby who clearly was not going to enjoy the candy collection. But I had a job to do: Jeff told me to get as much candy as possible since he would not be there to do so himself. I couldn't disappoint him. (And after the long day I previously mentioned, I was in need of some chocolate myself!)

It didn't take long for Tyler to figure out what Halloween is all about. I'm sure you can imagine my thought process at this moment: He is happy so take the picture then figure out how to distract him while removing the sugar from his paws.

Here he is the next morning after a good night sleep in his skeleton pjs.

Halloween Fun

Tyler climbing on them and yes Jeff really used a drill to carve his entire pumpkin!!


I love Tyler's pumpkin- its a baby face. Cute big eyes and a bottom-tooth-grin! Jeff's is the big one and my pumpkin has the bats! OOOH scary!

This is just our pre-Halloween fun. More pictures to come. Don't you worry!

Who does Tyler look like now?

Now that Tyler is 7 months old, we can see a little of both of us. Take the poll and decide for yourself who you think he resembles the most.

Ken and Judy's Visit

Jeff's parents came to visit us this past week and sure had fun! Jeff took his parents up to our favorite place: Salmon Hot Springs. The two hour drive is really beautiful, followed by an hour hike that is even prettier.

Once you get to the top of the mountain, there are pools of natural hotsprings. If you sit in the highest one, you can see waterfalls leading down to the lower ones; The higher up you go, the warmer the water. There is also a waterfall you can swim under and end up in a little cave. This is Jeff and my favorite place to just sit and talk, and appreciate the beautiful world we live in.
