Once back in town after our vacation, I decided it was time to get our bathroom wall fixed after putting up with it for four years.
Our upstairs furnace humidifier was installed unlevel and caused a big water leak upstairs all the way to the basement. Fortunately, the upper level and basement did not have the permanent water damage problem the main floor bathroom did.
Glen lined up Jeff and Sarah's basement finisher to come fix the problem.
Nothing like a delicious dinner at Bill and Jan Evans's home with friends to get us in the fall mood.
It had an orange theme to it, so we were staying in the fall colors mode.
Another thing that speaks fall is going to a pumpkin patch. We enjoyed seeing photos of Abe's family doing just that.
October General Conference was happening and there were ebelskiver breakfasts going on in the Excell home as well as our home.
Love the eating stations Lincoln and Jonah had set up for themselves to be able to watch conference while they ate their breakfast.
It was Wesley's first experience eating ebelskivers. Laugh was on me when I fed everyone their fill at breakfast, distributed the leftovers, and felt great about feeding so many people those little round bites of breakfast goodness...until I realized I had used egg nog instead of buttermilk in the batter. OOOOPS!!!
Sorry Wesley. Better luck next time!!
We all know fall means football. It appears Abe and Newland were extremely happy with the positive end score of the rain-delayed, double overtime BYU at Arizona game and sent proof they stayed up into the wee hours of the morning to watch the whole game.
Halloween costume photos of Jonah, Lincoln, and Carson.
OOOOPS!! What happened just in time for Halloween??? A chip fracture evulsion in her foot. Poor girl!!!!
Have scooter will roll!!!
Looks like her injury is not getting her down. She is very festive and ready for some Halloween candy action.
Newland (on the right) with his buddies. He reminds me a lot of Abe in this photo.
Didn't see a photo of Klarissa all dressed up, but when I saw this photo of Abe, my first thought was that makeup sure makes Klarissa look older. Then I found out this is a good friend of my parents being photographed with Abe so he could send it to them.
There are still little ones in Ben and Haley's family. I laugh every time I see Kade in costume and wonder how he ever sees out and how he can walk in it. Cute three boys!
It was fun seeing Spencer in costume with his friends (minus the wig he did not want to wear).
Dallas and Rebecca brought Madison and her friend to our home to trick-or-treat. I absolutely LOVED their costumes!!!
Of course, I just had to show them the photo of us when we were Thing 1 and Thing 2 one Halloween.
The girls wanted to mimic our pose. Great job, girls!!
Nani has a neighbor who really gets into dressing up. Creepy!!
We have some neighbors who change out their skeleton poses every single night in October for our daily viewing pleasure. Love it so much! They are so creative.
The first day of the month the skeletons appeared holding a sign that said, "Back by popular demand."
Cute way to end their month-long daily displays. It is always a sad day on November 1st to walk by and see the lawn empty. It feels like we've lost some dear friends.
