Mark comes!

 It seems the kids want to come spend time with their Dad, so Mark came on Friday and left Sunday. When they do come, we get some work out of them. LaVerl has been wanting some scrap boards he has, cut up for firewood, so Mark and I did that. We used the little white truck and hauled 2 loads up and then used a table saw to cut them into lengths. After we got that done, Mark took off the old, falling apart, rack on the little white truck.

(note- I now wear safety glasses!)

Mark installed the railing for our stairs that Tami ordered.

He cut some dead branches off several of our trees.

It was so funny watching him try to fit through the little doors in his old attic bedroom where he put some of the stuff he saved as a youngster. I didn't think he'd make it back out. He took home all is baseball cards and Beckett magazines he's saved.

He gave his Dad a wonderful priesthood blessing before he left. It was so good of him to come and spend his very valuable time with us!

Monday morning we woke up to Winter Wonderland!

LaVerl's 'sunshine water' became 'snow water'!

Fun Halloween Time

 I'm a little late posting the grandkids Halloween pictures, but here they are. They have fun dressing up and that includes Bret!! He walked into a Burger King dressed up like this and demanded nuggets and fries. He only got a few crowns and had to buy the food he wanted to pass out at their Ward party. Honey is a waffle fry and the puppies are the chicken nuggets and the white ones are the cows.

Ivory won a prize in her pumpkin contest at school.

Adlee, Tami and Colter. He hid in the bushes and jumped out and scared all the trick-or-treaters. Tami gave out candy and fortunes.

Lisa said she didn't get any cute pictures. Her 3 at the 'trunk or treat' party.

Lilly and friend.

Landon and Lucy.

Kari's kids--Rivers was Ron Swanson from Parks & Rec.

Elijah was a hot dog and his friends were other fast food.

Leo was an elf and his buddy was a Santa Claus.

Gabriel was a pilot.

Some of Mark's family! Milea was a cute leopard.

Wembley was a minion.

Zallen was a teenager in a hoodie?

Halloween is a silly holiday, but the kids sure have fun.
