Elizabeth's Blessing

We blessed Elizabeth at church on Sunday, it only took three months between General Conference and Dad being released as bishop this was the first fast Sunday that worked! Mike blessed her with his and my dad as well as Ron Scalva in the circle. I have such a softy as a husband, which isn't a bad thing, he was quite emotional after he performed the blessing. He did a wonderful job! Afterwards we had everyone over to our house for Dinner and to celebrate my birthday. I have to say overall I think it went quite well, however I am relieved to have it over with!

I am not so sure she like her dress!


Maja, Faja, and Elizabeth with her tounge out of course!

Happy Halloween!!

We had a fun filled Halloween with Truck-or-Treat on Thursday Night and then of course Trick-or-Treating on Friday Night. Our ward didn't have any Halloween festvities so we went to the Big Thompson ward's Trunk-or-Treat. The evening included a potluck dinner, games and crafts for the kids, and ended with collecting candy in the parking lot! Mike had fun decorating our trunk determined that he deserved the best trunk award, sadly there were no awards given!

Logan was supposed to be Jack Sparrow, this is half of his costume!

It just wouldn't be Halloween without dad's make shift costume!

What is he?


Mike and I didn't dress up however we were in Utah a few weeks ago to visit Ryan, Annette, Kaylie, and James and went to a Halloween party. We did dress up for that!

I was a butterfly and Mike was a ninja turtle, and Elzabeth was a Denver Broncos Cheerleader!

Our evening ended with carving pumpkins at Maja and Faja's house and a very tired little girl!




We hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!
