So we went to this really cool

Pumpkin Festival with pumpkins (of course) everywhere, a cornfield maze, pig races, pony rides, etc. It was SOOOO cute we decided to make it a tradtition to go every year.

Nothing like Playing on Daddy during conference!

This will be our family Christmas pic - this is taken just 6 feet from my parents house - they live THAT close to this cornfield. My dad, who took the pic, was leaning against the garage!

Yes - went to Oprah again. These are girls from my ward. This time it was MUCH Peppier - it was on aging and beauty - Nora Ephron, Gena Davis and Dianne Carol (sp). We got two free books at the end. I sat in a TERRIBLE spot, again. Tami got to sit in the second row in the middle. I could see her shoulder for 20 minutes during the taping!











Tyler is already learning that control of the remote control is key!!




Tyler and Abby have recently started PLOTTING together (Abby is my neice - Tami and Kevin's daughter that I watch a couple days a week). Here they are deciding how to take FULL advantage of this situation: A bathtub being filled with water.....OOOOO the possibilities!!!!

We also decided to go to the Homewood Flossmoor (our alma mater high school) vs. Bolingbrook (where Brian currently teaches) football game...AT HOMEWOOD -where we live. So here is how the game went: H-F - good play. We looked at each other passively and said, "Cool." Bolingbrook - good play: We look at each other and passively said, "Cool." It went on like that for 2 hours. Loving BOTH TEAMS MAKES IT HARD TO CHEER!!!!!

Here is a local petting zoo - Homewood Days Event!
