Finally a trip to Disneyland
When Lynda first came to visit us on her way home from her mission, one of the first things Aaron asked was, "Are we going to Disneyland now?" For the past year whenever the kids mentioned going to Disneyland, we would tell them that they had to wait until Grandma gets home off her mission. Let me just tell you that Lynda returning from her mission was an answer to Aaron's prayers! He worried about her a lot and worried whether he would ever get to go to Disneyland. And for a kid who can't grasp the concept of time, that was quite stressful for him. But we planned the day we would go. Grandma arranged her plans to go to Disneyland with us and we all bought our annual passes. We are looking forward to spending many more weekends up at Grandma's house.
A frightful night...
We had a great time carving our pumpkins with friends this year. Once again, the boys delivered on some great designs. Aubrey helped draw her "littlest" pumpkin. Nanna sent us a book called The Littlest Pumpkin. It's a cute little story about a little pumpkin that wants nothing more than to become a jack-o-lantern. In the end, he's never chosen by the children that come to the farm but it's chosen by the mice in the barn as their perfect pumpkin for their Halloween party. So Aubrey was all excited about her little pumpkin.
A much welcomed visit from Sister Gibbs. Mike's mom, Lynda, returned from the Houston South Mission in October. We were happy to have her and her companion Sister Oborn visit us for a few days before heading back to Huntington Beach to be released. We were able to attend her sacrament meeting to hear her talk on the 31st. So we weren't home to see all the neighborhood trick-or-treaters! And wouldn't you just know it, I didn't get a picture of my kids in their costumes this year. Yes, I suppose it's a crime. But for the record, Aaron was a skeleton, Connor was a rodeo clown, and Aubrey was a fairy.

Our glorious rainbow back in September just after a rainstorm. This picture was taken from our backyard!
