Halloween 2009

We had a great Halloween this year. Brandon and I decided to get "into" Halloween a little bit more this year (and we spent way to much money in doing so). But, we had so much fun. I do wish that Halloween was on Saturday every year - why can't a bill be passed declaring Halloween on the last Saturday of October? Who is with me on this? Anywho - just check out our fun pictures. They are in no particular order...

One of Lloyd's friends invited us to his house to watch him carve a pumpkin. Ray did an amazing job - and so creative.
The great pumpkin and the grandkids - Alayna, Brynnli, Gabe, Joey, Wyatt and Owen.


Trunk or Treat

This year we went to a trunk or treat at my mom's church. The kids (and adults) had alot of fun.

Big Bubba

Brandon had to dress up for a youth activity. He was "Bubba". Since pictures speak louder than words, just take a look...

Missing Teeth

Wyatt - FINALLY - lost one of his two front teeth last night. Since alot of his friends have already lost their teeth and have their permanent teeth in, he was so excited to loose it. Now (as you can see by this picture) he is missing 3 teeth, one on top - two on bottom. Hopefully those permanent teeth will take as much time as they need and come in straight.

Call me a sucker - but I decided to make Halloween cosumes this year. Actually, I really enjoy making them - picking the fabric is my favorite part. I got an early start (late August)-so, Brynnli's costume has been done for a while. She has been dying to wear her costume. Luckily she had a Halloween party last week, we just had to take some pictures. Isn't she just the cutest witch you have ever seen?

Reading Camp

Is this what reading camp will do? I don't think Brynnli has ever fallen asleep while reading. I just couldn't pass up the chance to snap a couple pictures.

Hunting Maniacs

Brandon and Wyatt are hunting maniacs! They have been hunting/camping so much in the past few months that I have lost track how many times they have been gone. It all started in September at Diamond Mountain. My dad drew a limited entry elk tag. He filled his tag a mere 6 hours after we arrived. Since we had planned on a week, we decided to stay a few more days and just camp - It was alot of fun. (These pictures are out of order - the pictures at the bottom were supposed to be first.)

Then Brandon had an elk tag - he took Wyatt out a couple of times but never found the right bull.
Then finally the deer hunt. They didn't get a deer - but did manage to bag a few coyotes. (WARNING - if you have a weak stomach, scroll through the pictures quickly) Even though the hunt was unsuccessfull, they still had alot of fun camping with family and friends. Isn't that what it is all about anyway?
