Volunteering

On behalf of the Idaho Food bank, Sarah volunteered with her teacher, Mrs. Brooks, and several of her classmates at Walmart today. Sarah has really gotten "into" the donation spirit. She has taken our wagon around the neighborhood to collect items, asked family members for donations and raided our pantry several times. At this point she has brought in the most canned goods of all the students in her classroom. We love her giving spirit!!!

Trick-or-treating!!

Yum, so much candy!!!

BSU Game

Andrew was a SUPER lucky boy on Saturday as he was invited by Bishop and Sister Johnson to go to a BSU game with them and his friend, Collin. He had an AWESOME time and told us in great detail all about it when he got home. He was SO impressed with the band, the noise, the fog, the players, that they made a touchdown right away and when the kids came out of the helmet. Please go to Sister Johnson's blog and read about it from her point of view.




THANK YOU SO MUCH Bishop and Sister Johnson!!!!!!!!! It was a dream come true for Andrew!!!!!

Fall Soccer

Nonnie and Grandpa have been asking for video of soccer games played this Fall. So, here it is....and it's a little long, so you might want to get a few snacks and settle in for some fun watching. Andrew scores 3 goals in this video. He had a great season and had a fun coach and team.



Spencer was very excited to play soccer this Fall as he has sat on the sidelines for several years watching Andrew play. Practices were okay, but actually playing in a game was a bit too scary for Spencer and so he stayed on the sidelines cheering his team on to victory!



Way to go, Soccer Boys!!!!!

Harvest Time

For Family Home Evening we went to our garden and harvested our pumpkins and gourds. Compared to last year, our pumpkins didn't do as well, but we have enough for our family. Our gourds did fabulous! It's always so fun to harvest what we have grown!

Before our harvest.....






After our harvest.


I LOVE Fall time!!!!!
