Finishing out September

The rest of the month, we spent a lot of time doing this:

         

Even Stacey, Annie, and Maggie wanted to get in on the action:

 

We had a few other fun things going on, with Asher wearing letter earrings, and James and his buddies running around the neighborhood in their costumes (James is on the bottom).

 

Landon had his Raingutter Regatta for cub scouts.  He did pretty good except for one time when his boat tipped over.

 

Camille came to town for the weekend while all the men went to Chicago and to Michigan for the BYU game.  We didn’t get to see Camille much because she spent most of the weekend in the hospital with Dallin and a case of insusseption, but we did get to have Avery around to hang out with!  Asher was born around a bunch of girl cousins on the Morris side.

But mostly, we just spent a lot of time staring at and admiring cute Madeleine.

   

On the 27th of October, we said goodbye to my mom.  It’s always pretty sad to see her go after she’s been here helping us for a couple of weeks.  I don’t know how I’d survive those first couple of weeks without her, or how the rest of the boys would survive either!
