I've been tagged.  Here is what you do:  take pictures of certain things exactly as they are, at that moment, without straightening up or changing anything.  Luckily, my kids are in bed, so my house is picked up.

1.  kitchen sink

2.  toilet
3.  what is your spouse/kids doing right now.  Marcus just got home from a dinner program, about to share his dessert with me.  
The kids are sound asleep.

Halloween

I am finally posting the pictures of Halloween.  We had a fun Halloween this year.  Chase was so excited to go trick or treating.  He ran to every house, and every once in a while, I heard him ask for more candy.  Lauren was really cute.  At every house, she would ask if the candy had nuts (she has a severe nut allergy).  I was so proud of her.  We went trick or treating with my brother and his kids.  The picture above is of Chase and my nephew Davis.Lauren was Princess Fiona.  I think her favorite part of Halloween, was putting on make- up.

Bishops Pumpkin Farm

Lauren's preschool went on a field trip earlier this month,to Bishops Pumpkin Farm.  Fall is my favorite time of year, and every year I look forward to coming to the pumpkin farm.  The kids took a hayride out to the pumpkin farm, and picked out their own pumpkins.  Lauren wanted a baby one.   They took a train ride, watched pig races, pet some animals, slid down some big slides, etc.    Here are some pictures of the field trip.
Lauren and Chase did not want to pose for the camera.  They were much more interested in the pumpkins.

He wasn't tall enough to look through the holes, so Ms.  Jill is holding him up.
The sun was too bright.  He was trying really hard to look at the camera. 
Chase loved picking out his pumpkin.  He was very particular about which one he wanted.  He would bend down to look at one, and if it wasn't what he was looking for, he would move on to another pumpkin.  It took him a while to pick one out.

Emigrant Gap

For FHE on Monday night, we went up to some water falls.  Marcus took the Young Men cliff jumping at these falls, and really wanted to take the kids.  The falls are about an hour away, (towards Reno) so by the time we got there it was getting dark.  These are the pictures we quickly took before hiking down.
