October Fun

I'm finally catching up on my blog again.  October & November just flew by way too fast.

October was a wonderful month.  We were extremely busy with Halloween events, Youth Conference, & Stake Conference, but we managed to have a lot of fun too.

Trek & I enjoyed a few bikerides while the weather was still good.

The sunsets in the Fall here are incredible.

We actually had 3 ER visits in ONE WEEK in October.

#1: Trek thinks he tore his muscle in his shoulder & is now in physical therapy for the next few months.

#2: Lorien was playing soccer with friends & accidentally kicked a friend when they were both trying to get the ball & wound up breaking her toe in the process.  We went to the ER, but the xray didn't show a break.  3 doctors looked at it & swore that it was broken even though they couldn't see it on the xray due to the swelling & bruising.  She is in a boot & taping her toes together for 6 weeks.

#3: Canyon's foot swelled up for absolutely no reason whatsoever to the point that he couldn't put any weight on it.  We spent the whole day in the ER & waited for the swelling to go down.  It did after several hours & the doctors still don't know what caused it.

I got my hair done for the first time in forever.  It turned out super cute.

The kids have been doing really well with piano too.  Bladen & Canyon both passed off some fun songs this month:

Canyon playing "In The Hall of the Mountain King"

Bladen enjoyed playing "Ghostbusters" for Halloween

And Bladen's been working extra hard on "Wonder Woman's Wrath" from the Wonder Woman movie.

It's starting to frost here & the spider webs are beautiful.

And surprisingly, I actually had time to paint this month.  Only a few times, but I sure love it when I get a chance to sit down & play with my colors.

It was a great month.
