Danny discovered the horse today and loved it and no he doesn't fall off the front of the horse.(You might wonder with the way the video ends.) He is such a happy little guy!

Happy Halloween

We had a great Halloween! I think this is becoming one of my favorite holidays. The boys have so much fun and I get to eat lots of chocolate...what could be better!

This year our ward had a ward carnival on Thursday night. It was a lot of fun to see all the kids in their costumes. Jacob and Andrew went as pirates.

Danny even had fun and kept the hood to his costume on most of the night. Once he got tired, then he was done with the costume.

Andrew had a great day at school on Friday, Oct. 30th. In the morning they went to each of the 6 kindergarten teachers and did something in each of the rooms. In the afternoon they had the parents come and see the kids in their costumes. Each of the classes learned a fun Halloween song. This is Andrew with his teacher, Miss Frederick.

Here is Andrew with his class singing their Halloween song.

Saturday we went trick or treating. The boys had to be so bundled up, you can't even tell what they were dress as. Jacob decided to be spiderman and Andrew wanted to be a pirate again. We went around the neighborhood for about an hour and a half. Last year we went for 3 hours. Danny was not enjoying the cold and the stroller. He wanted to get down and run. Also, Jacob got tired. Andrew said he DEFINITELY was not done, but had to come home. We sill have plenty of candy to take care of my sweet tooth for a couple of weeks:)

Out of the Mouth of Babes

The other night we had sent the boys to bed. (They share a room with bunk beds.) Doug was on his way upstairs when Andrew came out of the room crying. Andrew said, "Dad, Jacob just called me stupid." Doug told him he would talk to Jacob. As Doug walked into the room Jacob said, "but Dad I forgot his name."

Are you kidding me. I have laughed and laughed over that one. I never know what Jacob is going to say next!

Also, last week Andrew was sick. I said family prayers and sent the boys to bed. Andrew woke up the next morning and was still sick and was unable to go to school. Later in the day Andrew asked me why he was still sick because I had said a prayer that he would get better. He then said, Mom, you must not have had very much faith when you said your prayer. I laughed and said thanks! Then we had a nice talk about how you don't always get what you pray for.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...NOOO

Today we woke up to our second sight of snow in the last couple of days. There was more snow earlier, but it has started to melt. The news says we got about 2 inches...WHAT ISN'T IT OCTOBER. I think it will be a LONG winter. I think I will start planning a trip to somewhere warm for Christmas!
