Here is Conner's latest costume design. This is a shark. You can see the fins on his hands and kind of see the paper around his waist. He also made the thing that pokes up in the back, but I couldn't get the angle right to show everything. He is so creative.

Here are my cute dinosaurs and dragon.

I was having a hard time combing my hair after my showers because it was so damaged so I decided to cut it. I had to get a before picture. Bye bye long hair.

I went a little shorter than I had originally planned, but I like it. Lance and our kids aren't too sure about it. They all liked my long hair.

Lance and the boys carved the pumpkins on Halloween afternoon. Conner didn't want to have anything to do with touching the insides of the pumpkin after he felt how gooey it felt. After Lance showed him that he could use a spoon he was alright with it and wanted to do it all by himself.

Brayden wasn't too sure how much he liked the inside of the pumpkin.

Here is Conner at his school's Halloween parade. Just in case you can't tell, he is the dragon.

My mom and I took the kids to "This is the place" park last weekend. I had never been there before. It is actually a lot bigger than I thought. There were a lot of things to do. When the boys saw the hayride keep going past us they made sure that was one of the things that we did.

Conner went on a pony ride when Brayden was just a baby. Brayden keeps seeing the pictures of Conner's ride in his scrapbook and keeps reminding us whenever we see a horse that he would like a pony ride. When he saw that they were letting the kids ride the ponys he ran to the corral and almost couldn't wait his turn. He wasn't scared at all.

Conner's ride.

There was a little band playing at one of the hoomes. They had some small instruments that kids could play. Conner sat down with them and played 2 or 3 songs with them. He loved it.

They have this little village playground for the kids to play in. It is really cute.

I had to get this picture of Porter peering over the edge of one of the window sills.

We went camping with some of our friends around the end of September. It was our last camping trip of the season and we had a great time. Here is Porter showing of his gorgeous smile.

We like camping at this camping spot because the boys could ride their bikes all over. They had so much fun.

I kept telling Conner to be careful. It wasn't warm enough where he could get wet and be comfortable. He couldn't help himself though. He even got to the point where he bent down to get something out of the water and his whole bum got wet. It was a good thing I had brought an extra set of clothes, just in case.

All of my boys looking so handsome.

Just a cute one of Lance and Porter.

Brayden being comfy still in bed in the trailer.

Here are Conner and Brayden with our friend's son Preston on the beach.

Porter is following in Brayden's footsteps. I took Brayden from the table to change him and was walking back to the table and called out to Porter, "Are you ready to get down?" Usually he says something, this time (of course) he didn't say anything. I looked over and saw that he had fallen asleep. I still wish I could fall asleep anywhere.

Porter's chocolate face.

This picture was taken the morning of Conner's first day of school. He started about 2 weeks ago. He loves it! He is in all day kindergarten.
