Halloween

I am FINALLY posting pictures of Haloween. I tried to be creative and do another TWIN themed costume, so they were MARIO and LUIGI. Skyler was Mario and Connor was Luigi. For Halloween we went to the High School and did their trick or treating through the halls. We also went to our ward Trunk or Treat. The boys got their costumes all wet at the ward activity, so when we got home we changed them out of their costumes. Connor didn't seem too interested and had a hard time even giving the candy to the those that came by the house. Skyler was very wrapped up in the spirit on Halloween, and loved answering the door and handing out the candy. I decided that he should be rewarded, so I threw on an extra costume my sister let me borrow (the elephant) and took him out trick or treating. It was seriously SO much fun. He was so cute, he learned not to walk on the grass, to go to houses that had porch lights on, to have his bucket when he knocked (it was kinda heavy so I was holding it), and to say trick or treat when somebody came to the door. Only he held his hand out instead of the bucket. By the time we got home, Connor seemed to be in a more chipper mood, so we threw a Dragon costume on him and David and I took the boys to a few more houses. We really had a fun time.

Staheli Family Farm

The weekend of October 23, my sister, Erica, and her boys were in town. David and her husband, Heber, went up to Provo for a football game. We had a lot of fun that weekend. One thing we did was to go to Staheli Family Farm. Our cousin Cinthia also went with us. The boys had so much fun on the corn slide, then the petting zoo. Eventally the did the train ride (pulled by the tractor). And finally they enjoyed the tire swing made to look like bulls. Skyler absolutely LOVED the train ride and seeing the cows during it. He would have riden it all day. Connor enjoyed the tire swing, and it was quite a challenge getting him off.

















Random Fun

The boys are silly, and learning to play together



Skyler is still a happy little boy, and is learning so much. He knows some of his colors and shapes. I would say his favorite colors are Orange and Green. He also loves the moon and animals. He is a little sponge and loves to learn and talk.



Connor is a silly boy. He loves to color and to point out shapes. His favorite is the circle, then probably the triangle, heart and star. But he is definitely a circle fan.



On Fridays we like to go outside and watch for the trash truck. The driver is so awesome and totally entertains the kids and honks the horn. One day he came back with, probably his boss or something, and gave the kids each a hat, a toy figurine trash can and a coloring book. It seriously so nice.
