Thanksgiving


Here we are on Thanksgiving Day getting ready to feast. Cambry and Brent hosted so we had the added pleasure of having Brent's parents and grandparents there. A prime rib Thanksgiving-- tastey! I made the orange rolls and they were NICE...thanks Bridget! So, now we are in the thick of the holiday season and while I'm loving it, I wish it would slow down.

Del's 100th


Last week we got together with my dad's extended family to celebrate his dad's 100th birthday. My grandpa, Delmas R. Larson (known to me as Del), would be turning 100 years old if he were alive today. It was a great opportunity to get together with aunts, uncles, cousins, and more cousins to recognize his posterity. Well done Cambry on putting the whole thing together-- especially the bolo tie party favors.

Farewell to Orem


It's true, we've moved. It's the end of an era!
Some things we will miss: friends, Kids Village, the ward, basement fun, great neighbors (and their dogs), our favorite babysitter, being next door to canyons, AMP Gym, neighborhood Subway, Riverside pool, and much more. Soon all just memories. Ahh change.

Fall Picnic





I have been so grateful that this glorious fall weather is lasting. Auntie Cambry invited us on a picnic yesterday, along with Mimi and Pa, to this scenic Salt Lake gully where the boys had fun blowing bubbles and running through leaves.

Hooray for Halloween





Our Halloween festivities began with attending Asher's school program where we watched his class parade and singing performance. So fun. Then, for his class party I was one of the mothers who got to come assist with games and treats, and I was the only mom cool enough to come dressed up:) The kids bowled, danced, and frosted cupcakes. I was grateful to participate. The evening continued with trick-or-treating to a grand total of 3 houses in our neighborhood before we headed to auntie Cambry's for the traditional Morley Halloween Party. The kids didn't seem to mind bailing and somehow still ended up with several pieces of candy in their buckets...fishy...must have grabbed two pieces at each door. At Cambry's we played in their haunted woods, ate tastey food, and enjoyed great company. As always it was fabulous! Gotta love Halloween.
