SOLD!

It's hard to believe that the business is sold! Greg sold his business in order to better follow through with becoming a military chaplain. Although he's not the boss any more, he's still working fencing for Vaughn, who bought the business. It's been a great thing so far! We feel very blessed to have been successful in this business, especially during difficult economic times! I guess there are just other things in store! Hopefully we learn what those are!

Merry Christmas Elder Larson!

We had fun making a little picture sign for my brother on a mission! They certainly enjoyed it as well!

Halloween

We had a fun Halloween. We went to our ward's Trunk or Treat, then just went around to a couple friends. When we went to our neighbor, Chuck's, he gave each of the kids a whole bag full of candy! We figured we had got our fill and went home!! The kids were actually excited to "trade" their candy for a cool new toy. They got to keep 5 of their favorite pieces, and then traded me for the fun toy. They enjoyed the rest of the evening just playing with their new stuff!

Our Halloween Family!
I love this picture of Lincoln the Lion!

Logan the daring dragon

Halloween Parties!

It seemed more like Halloween Week rather than just one day of Halloween this year. We enjoyed it though. Logan had a Halloween party, then Adam had one a couple days later, then we went to Jeff and ShaRee's for a fun party with the cousins! There, we had a mystery dinner with the kids, which was so fun (unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of that!) We had some spooky items - mummies in a blanket, witches brew, etc.. We topped off the evening at their school carnival with fun prizes and more candy! Such fun times!

Lincoln the dog-witch!
Now, just Lincoln the dog

Brenly and Kate - two pretty princesses

Here's Logan after his kindergarten Halloween party. He made some bat glasses, and decorated his own pumpkin!

Lost Teeth!

Even though it doesn't really look like it, Logan did lose a tooth. But his new tooth had already grown in before the old one fell out! It's funny when he shows people that he lost a tooth, because you really can't tell!

Adam finally lost one of his front teeth. I say finally because it was practically dangling there for about a week! He had been twisting it around and everything! The morning after we took these pictures, Adam came down the stairs, and his tooth just came out - no blood or anything! He was pretty excited about it. Greg wasn't home because he was in California for his Uncle Rod's funeral, so Adam wrote the tooth fairy asking to keep the tooth around for a few more days so Dad could see it!

Adam twisting and turning that tooth all around!
We all got a kick out of it! He could practically close his mouth and have just that one tooth stick out - funny!

Another Princess Party!

Brenly is absolutely in heaven when she is invited to anything "princessy". So the Mia-maids in our ward put on a princess party for all the little girls. It was so fun! All the little girls came dressed up in their princess dresses. All the bigger girls dressed up as well, as some famous princess for the little princesses to guess! They did the girls' hair, nails, make up, and made fruit loop necklaces and crown door hangers. We heard little princess story and had princess refreshments! It was "royally" fun! Brenly loved it!

All Princessed up!

Doesn' this look so fun?

Look at these beautiful princesses - Princess Hailey, Mulan (Julia), Jasmine (Alicia), The princess and the frog (Paige), Cinderella (Kimi), Belle (Brighton), Snow White (Erica), and Tinkerbell (Maddy)

Brenly so excited for the party to begin!

Visiting Cousins

During General Conference, and the Chaplain Conference, we took Lincoln and Brenly with us to Tom and Kirsten's. Adam and Logan stayed back with Grandma! We had a great time with them. Brenly and Thomas just played so cute together. They were always laughing together! So fun to be with cousins!

Kirsten took all the kids to the zoo! They loved it!
