Last night we carved our pumpkins!!!! Jacob carved the Lemon Fresh "X" thing into his, which he was VERY proud of. I carved "The Doans" into mine....I'm not very clever when it comes to pumpkin carving. And when we got done with ours we were way too lazy to actually carve another one for Gid, so we just drew him one. We did however do our best to have it look like him....4 jagger teeth and all!

Gid LOVED all the pumpkin guts....Here he is helping Daddy with his!

When I said loved...I meant it. I have no idea how much raw pumpkin that he ate last night. He seems to be handling it fine.

YAY! for pumpkins on our new little porch!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Oh my goodness. I know I've disappeared for about 12 thousand years, but things have calmed down temporarily. (I think, hope, wish...) Gid is healthy again...FINALLY. What a nightmare that was. But yes, we just got back from Utah for Jade and Tim's Wedding!!! I was there for a week and a half and everyone else was there for the last few days before the wedding. Jake will be the first to tell you how un-vacation-like it was, but Jade & Tim are all hitched up and it was perfect for them! And when it all comes down t0 it, that's really all that matters! Oh, and I got my hair done too, which is always fun. Here are some pics!Jade & Tim Ranagan
