October Funness

We've been having fun this October so far. There's only four more days left of the month of October in 2013 so I hope the rest of you make the most of it. Let's stop dawdling and show the pictures!

 We went to tour the newest section at Chris's work. Inside there was this lovely large box. It wasn't however bigger on the inside. 

 Here is the larger auditorium. So pretty! I sat in one of the purple chairs.

 There was a hot and cold side to the auditorium respectively that led up the place. Actually, I think the theme was "caves." Here is the cold side.

 Here is the warmer cave side complete with Gollum.
 

We saw a hot air balloon hovering close by the buildings. It was rather exciting!
 
 Here is the outside of the new conference building theater place.


Outside of the building is an Int!

Pumpkin Patch Trip

 Here we have a lovely Kairi's face. This year at the pumpkin patch it rained for a half hour when we first arrived but then it was sunny and nice. It wasn't even too cold or too hot. 




 Here's Wesley with a cowboy hat he wore the whole time. For some reason he reminds me of my brother Adam in this picture. Well,  you know when Uncle Adam was a kid.

 We got to go on a barrel ride. 

 And play on the kid sized arc.


 We sat in a tractor too. 

 This was our first year going through a corn maze. We went through the shorter one which had a lot of round abouts.

Intermission
 Kairi and Kate went on a date with Aunt Michelle and had a great time! Here they are before they venture out to an indoor climbing place. 

Decorating Pumpkins

 Kate and Kairi colored their pumpkins with marker initially. Then we rubbed it all off and carved them. Kate with her pumpkin.

 Kairi with her pumpkin.
 Kate excited about her smallest pumpkin.

 Wesley picked the white pumpkin on the pumpkin patch trip with our family. He picked the orange one on his school trip where he rode his very first school bus! 

 Tired of waiting for a carving buddy?

 Ta Dah! 


 Before the ward trunk or treat party the kids needed something to do so we were Pirates on a treasure hunt.
 We found some clues. 

 And we ate the chocolate.
 It was so tasty! 

 What kind of chocolate? Chocolate coins!

 Here's were we found the treasure!

 We got a good picture of Aunt Michelle as an Egyptian and the bishop as Picard. 

 We got two family shots. Can you tell who is hiding on the side of the picture? A chimney sweep from Mary Poppins. His wife was Mary Poppins. 

Chris and I are leprechaun's. Kairi is Mike from Monster's Inc. Wesley is Donatello from the Ninja Turtles and Kate is a mermaid. It's hard to see her tail.  


Dad and Wesley started raking the leaves yesterday. 

 
 Kate and Kairi decided that snow is tasty. Perhaps leaves are too....
Yuck!


I wanted to post something cool. Here is Chris  playing songs off our fancy piano. Normally he notices me filming too quickly and I don't get any good clips, but recently I got a whole bunch of them. He he he! 

The kids at the pumpkin patch will now provide you with a feature film. Note, no kids were seriously harmed in the making of this video. Thanks for watching!
