Last week I did something I have never done before. We went to a cave, or spelunking as the pros call it. (It was actually an old mine)

I don't think I can call myself my husband's wife without having done this. Austin loved it most of all.

Very possibly child abuse. He doesn't look amused, but trust me he was.

In order to get to the cave we had to cross a creek. It was only knee deep, but the water had ice floating in it. So, Troy, being the best brother-in-law that he is carried not only me...but Austin across. See movie below. I don't know whether to laugh or feel bad for him.





Not only did he do this for me, but he did it another 2 times for his friend, Brooke, and then for my niece and nephew, Kendall and Lily. Tyler and Cannon climbed across a cable to avoid the freezing cold water.

Our Halloween

We had such a fun halloween. Even though Tyler had class that night, we still got to be with him for a little bit. We went to Tyler's work and did trick or treating at the offices. Then, we went to our ward's trunk or treat, and just incase we didn't have enough candy we went to my parents and inlaw's ward for another trunk or treat. Ty loved it! However, he wanted to eat each piece of candy when someone gave it to him. He couldn't quite get the concept of saving it for later.

That night I knew that we weren't going to be home the whole night so I put out a bowl of candy. I went to our ward trunk or treat for about 45 mins and came back and realized all the candy was gone. I thought at first that somehow there must have been a lot of trick or treaters, but in the next 30 minutes we didn't have anyone. So...one lucky person got a bunch of candy in one stop. Not that I am going to miss it or anything. I am thrilled to have it gone. But..sorry to anyone that came by and didn't get any.


At Tyler's work. Yes, Tyler did dress up. If you want to count the skeleton shirt his work gave him.

My cute lion and pumpkin.

This picture doesn't necessarily reflect their personalities 100% of the time. Only about 90%.

I dressed up as a cowgirl, my default costume when I am not feeling creative.

Enjoying the nice Halloween weather.

He was mistaken as a carrot a few times. But for the record, he was a pumpkin. (see front of costume)
