Halloween

Welcome to our blog! Since everyone else is jumping on the blog bandwagon we thought we'd join all the fun. Things are wonderful here! The weather is finally cooling down and the days are beautiful. The average temperatures are currently in the mid 70s with lows in the 50s at night! Heavenly! We've had a great few days over the past week and were able to take the kids to an enormous corn maze (7 acres) and last night we had a trunk-or-treat at the church. The kids are having a blast! Andrea even got Austin to dress up for the first time in years! Hyrum is loving school and currently right in the middle of an intense soccer season. Paigey is as spicey as ever and loving her ballet class. She also just finished her first soccer season and amidst all the picking of flowers, dancing in the middle of the soccer fields and her extensive water breaks and bathroom trips, we think she kicked the ball a few times - although we have no documented proof. Needless to say, she probably won't be doing soccer again - unless she has a sudden change of heart (Dad is still working on her). Olivia has just cut her first two teeth and loves to bite everything she sees. Still not crawling yet, but talking and singing all through church. Andrea is teaching a ballet class twice a month at a Ballet studio nearby which she is enjoying and likes getting back to the ballet world. Austin's currently in the ICU and absolutely loves being on call every 3rd night. Just ask Andrea how much he enjoys the ICU. Anyway, things are well here. We hope you enjoy our blog and come back and visit frequently!

We love your blog and we loved your costumes too. Scotty and I went to a halloween party and I was the party pooper I couldn't find a costume being huge with nothing to fit and Scotty was able to put together a Harry Potter costume in about five min. and it looked pretty good. We are glad everything is going well and we love you guys and give the kids hugs for us.
