Trick or Treat

 The last week in October brought all kinds of dressing up...first of all, crazy hair day at school --Loa knew exactly what she wanted and Lytzi found something at the last minute.  Both looked so cute!  Linq opted for a witch hat, ha ha!







Then of course we had to dress up on Halloween.  We had fun hitting the trunk or treat at the Ford dealership in Soda, and the trunk or treat at the church then on to the Andersons for the Halloween walk through.









Loa was with her friends part of the time and Lytzi ended up with some friends and Laexin has graduated from trick or treating to helping out at the haunted woods --he did this a few different nights and had a blast!  So, we took Linq around then went to see Laexin at his 'job'.



Linda and Larry Visit

 The third week in October we got a visit from Linda and Larry Elms - it was fun to have some friends visit our new house!!  We just mostly hung out and caught up, it was nice.  The only pictures we got were of one night visiting after dinner, Lytzi and Linq had my phone and were taking all sorts of pictures ...so we have the many faces of LeGrand, Linda and Larry :)

Snowy Fall

 The second week in October we got our first big snowfall.  The kids are always excited for the fall snow, but when it's middle of April still snowing we are all over it!! :)





That same week we had the annual pumpkin patch in Soda Springs, the kids love going to pick out a pumpkin!  They made a haul this year, like always!




Pocatello Temple

 We got the opportunity to help with the Pocatello Temple open house.  It was awesome!  Our youth got to help with booties - both Loa and Laexin were able to, and I got to help tour guide.  We had some really amazing experiences with people feeling the spirit of the temple who weren't of our faith.  We were pretty excited when we finally got to take our family through the open house!





We went for yummy Italian food in Old Town Poky afterward - it was a great day!

Fall Shenanigans

It really wasnt that warm out but these kids just wanted to paint...

We got tickets to the BYU/Utah State game in Logan and took Laexin --it was a good time!  We were the wrong color of blue sitting in the middle of all the USU fans but we still cheered loud and proud and had a great victory!


After conference the beginning of October we need to get out for some exercise so we went for a little fall time hike--the colors looked amazing and the weather was beautiful!







What the???!?  Craziest catface spider just sitting by the garage walk-through door.


Laexin had another friend party --I don't do much but I do have a lot of fun providing the food!


 

Mags

This little lady quickly became the household favorite!...took Couver a minuet but he finally warmed up to her...


Buddies!


Even the self-proclaimed 'dog hater' has a soft spot for Maggie!
