Natural Beauty and Man Made Beauty

Right in my own backyard, so beautiful!!

Right in my frontyard! Why leave home?!

Our trees are still baby trees, I guess I was longing for some fall leaves in my yard!

Somehow man made things can be interesting and beautiful too.

Saw this while we were pheasant hunting.

This too.

Can you see it?

Saw this while we were scouting for elk.

I love how blue the sky can be.

Halloween Time

The Parade
Halloween kicked off this year with the traditional parade through the school. I love seeing all the costumes!
Andrew was a mad scientist and he played his role to the T the whole time!
It seems that when you're a sixth grade boy it's tradition to dress as a girl. So here is my lovely daughter! (Blond for now!)
Joshua just loved How to Train Your Dragon so I encouraged him to be a viking. And boy did he make a great viking! (He was a little self conscious about his weight.)

The Party
Caleb was invited to a costume party and was so excited for it. For the party Caleb decided to "color and cut" his hair so now he's got black hair. Unfortunately he caught the flu the day before. He still pulled himself together to go but didn't have as much fun feeling sick the whole time.


Trick-R-Treating
It was just Joshua, Andrew and I for this event. Caleb and his dad stayed out bird hunting. First we hit the trunk-r-treat and boy did they load up. Then we hit the neighborhood and knocked a few doors. Some candy is not nearly as good as a whole bunch of candy!
