Happy, Happy Halloween!

Hello from Mr. Scarecrow.




A pirate attack.






The candy monster ...one feared by all!

Carving Pumpkins

After picking the perfect pumpkin at the pumpkin patch, we decided to carve it for FHE. You really can't beat a night of family fun ... especially if it involves Papa Murphy's and Halloween tunes.

Immunizations!

Dallin, Blake and I went to the doctor for some immunization shots the other day. In an effort to prepare Dal for the experience I told him how important it was to be brave. I was going to explain it would hurt just a bit, but would keep him healthy in the long run. However, before I got the chance, he cut me off and said, "Mom, don't worry, I am not going to cry for these shots. I am going to smile so I can get them over with quickly." Great! This is going to be easier then I thought. We went in, were called back, and Dal was sitting in a chair next to the nurse when he said, "Wait, I thought you were talking about picture shots not needle shots ...ahhhhhhhhhhhh!" There went the smile and all attempts at bravery. This is a "shot" of him reenacting his initial reaction. I still keep thinking to myself, "Sorry Dallin."



Blake responded to the shots with even more drama. This picture was taken shortly after the tears had subsided, but if you look closely you can still see the tear (and snot) stained hoodie:(









All is well that ends well:)
