Hunting, Halloween, Happiness!

October brought a full month of Elk Hunting. At first it was all sorts of fun,
but after a while the kids just wanted to do anything but go hunting.
As for me, I just love being on the mountain so I loved it!
Unfortunately, we didn't get an Elk just made a bunch of memories.



The kids scared this huge porcupine up into a tree.  I think it was Coulsons favorite part.



Quinn finished reading Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, so he got his "Harry Potter Party"
complete with Pretzel Wands, Bertie Botts, Butter Beer, Hershey kisses, and Pumpkin Pasties.


 My cousin Angie and her family came for a short visit to pick up a puppy.

The kids LOVE playing together.  
Coulson and Cole were born the same day and Adi and Aspen are only a month apart in age.
It was so great to see them.


HALLOWEEN







Should I change my profile picture? 




Harry and his friend Hermoine
They had so much fun planning the costumes and casting spells.
Hermoine's little brother got in a nice photo bomb.


We won first place at the trunk or treat for our decorated trunk.  The funny thing is we really didn't decorate, we just put our awesome dog in the back and everyone loved on him so we got the votes.




October was a really busy month.  I was in charge of our PTA Halloween Carnival, plus hunting, school, church calling, homework, piano lessons, puppies, BUT, it was such a fun month I hate to see it go.  Here come the Holidays!  I love this season, the smells, the family, and the spirit of Christ. If I didn't have to go Christmas shopping I think I would look forward to it a little more.  Shopping is definitely not one of my loves.
