Happy Halloween!

The kids loved Halloween this year! We went out to the Fall Festival at our church, and Larson finally caught onto the basic idea of the evening.....candy, candy, candy - what could be better!? Secily loved dressing up.

Here she is, our little kitty cat:
Playing the games at church:
Hanging out with Jeff & Chandra:

Larson was an elephant - though it was a bit hard to tell since he didn't really wear his costume all that long. He decided to shed it to play on the inflatables.






All in all, a great night!

Weekly happenings....

I went and registered at the hospital this week for Baby #3 - which, by the way we found out is going to be a GIRL! I am going to have her at a different hospital than I had Larson & Secily - the hospital is brand-new and it is beautiful! It has a great waiting area (important for our big families!), and the nurse who gave me my tour showed me that each room has huge flat screen TV ready to go with all of the sports channels for the Daddies! I know, I know, we are going there to have a new baby and all, but really - Ryan is pretty excited about TV and the sports thing.
Here I am, 6 1/2 months pregnant - you can also see the new haircut here (for those that might care!)
Larson is really into jumping. He loves to jump off of anything, and anytime we are anywhere that there is something that he can climb on, he does, and then asks "Mom, can I jump?" I guess I should be glad that he is at least asking......


Another of Larson & Secily's favorite activities is being thrown into the air by Ryan.


Secily is so funny - she wants to be thrown up, but she holds onto Ryan's arms, so she doesn't actually "fly" anywhere...

A picture is worth a thousand words....

To spare you having to read my thousand words (because, really, I could write that much) I will let you just look at the pictures of our trip to Canada. We had a fantastic time - perfect fall weather, the entire family home for a week, a huge 60th birthday party for my Dad (which I don't have any pictures of!), and Thanksgiving at the Larson farm with almost the entire Larson family - there were 65 of us! Thanksgiving day was everything it should be - family, turkey, quads, football, fire, guns...what more could you ask for!
