First lost tooth and visit from the toothfairy...wahoo! Ben had to have the dentist pull out the tooth since the permanent tooth was coming in behind the baby tooth. Ben was very brave and sat patiently while the dentist took out the baby tooth. He was very excited to have finally lost a tooth! The tooth fairy was very generous too!

Wow...no pictures this week! We enjoyed Thanksgiving at Great Grandma White's house this year and took the kids to see a new Walt Disney version of A Christmas Carol. It was a fun movie though a little scary for the kids at times.
Nov. 15 through Nov. 21
Not much in the way of pictures this week...
Ben's First Grade Program...it was a packed house and getting pictures was difficult as you can see. So, we ended up taking a few at home with his props from the program.
On Saturday we headed up to Grandma Facer's house...they are putting it up for sale since she passed away on Halloween. They were cleaning it out and letting the grandkids come through and find treasures to take home. Our finds included this Santa Claus snowglobe, an exercise trampoline (which the kids love) some dress up jewelry, a big cooking pot and firewood carrying bag that Bryan's Mom made a long time ago.

I'm so lacking pictures for this week so I thought I go back a year and post pictures from our life one year ago...my how the kids have grown up!
October 25 through October 31
We had a fun week of Halloween activites. Here are some of my favorite photos from the week:
Our annual front porch photo on our way out the door to go Trick-or-Treating.
Our Halloween supper with the Emery's...black bean soup and quesadillas, oh and a steaming witches brew!
The girls in the Trick-or-Treating group...so cute!
Batman and Robin...what a pair!
Checking out the loot...when I was a kid we always we sorted our candy into piles of like candy to see what we got the most of. So I taught me kids to do the same. Snickers was the winner for both...to bad they don't love them!
Game at Nana and Grandpa's Halloween party...Pass the Pumpkin!
Family photo from Nana and Grandpa's party...Bryan and I borrowed some SuperHero costumes...don't we look great!
Carving pumpkins! Bryan did a great job tryin to make Snow White for Natalie.
Ben's school Halloween parade...he was so funny and even did a little Robin maneuver for us.
Making Halloween sugar cookies for FHE...yum!

My sweet and talented friend, Erin, took our family pictures today for our Christmas cards. She was so kind to take an hour Sunday afternoon to take our pictures. She did a great job. This one's not going on the card, but I love it so I'll post it here.

Ben and Daddy got haircuts this afternoon...what a handsome guy!
Tuesday, OCt. 20
We all went to the dentist today...I didn't take my camera there but when we came home they posed with their new toothbrushes for me. Gotta love a new toothbrush! They both did great at the dentist and loved getting chocolate when we were done...what dentist gives candy at the end of a checkup? This was our first visit to this dentist but we loved him and will definitely be going back.
Wednesday, Oct. 21
Still loving the weather and being off track...we went to the fishing hole at The Cove and watched the ducks and old men fishing.
Thursday, Oct. 22
This one was actually from yesterday...so not perfect about taking a picture everyday. We took a picnic to the park and loved being outside!
Friday, Oct. 23
Bryan went to Costco for me while I taught piano lessons. Natalie went with him and they came back with this pretty surprise for me. Natalie spilled the beans though and came downstairs to tell me they were back..."and actually Mom, we bought you flowers!" What a wonderful husband.

We had our Ward Halloween party last night and part of the party was painting pumpkins. With the crowd a the paint table, however, we ended up painting them at home this morning. Natalie and I painted her's purple with a black spiderweb over it and Ben painted the Robin symbol on one side and a bat on the other.

We've had some wonderful weather and enjoyed some park time while Ben's off track. They love finding new parks to test out. This was a fun one.

We made our annual trip to Gardner Village to see the witches they put on display. It turned out to be an extremely crowded day to visit so our pictures are not so great but we had fun doing the witch hunt and making a stop at the candy store for our favorite taffy and sampling fudge.

We went on a leaf hunt this afternoon and then made some leaf rubbings as part of Ben's off track homework. I love leaf hunts!

Natalie loves helping in the kitchen...she loves eating these potato pearls dry out of the bin...then decided she would use it for a stool.
Friday, Oct. 18
One of Ben's favorite things about being off track is staying in your PJ's all morning. These 2 got out the playdough first thing this morning and had fun rolling it out together. I love it when they can play well together.
