October 2019

Courtney helped us tend Molly and Hallie. They played at the park, we went to Texas Roadhouse and a lot of other fun activities.  

General Conference Sunday -  More fun with Ryder, Molly and Hallie. There was stories, games and fun with Grandpa Chin Chop. 

Watching and listening and sleeping through conference. 

 Oct. 8 at A&W, then Oct 9 in our yard.

Oct 11-13.  We took a little trip to West Yellowstone with Jared's family and Randy's family.  It was Jared and Nikelle's 6th Anniversary on the 12th.  They stayed the night at the Worldmark Resort, then had a fun helicopter ride.  The rest of us stayed in a VRBO cabin. I didn't end up getting many pictures. They had fun in the pools at the resort. We saw a fox outside of the cabin. Ryder thought he was funny to wear his mom's boots, and Hallie thinks she's as big as Molly and Ryder to drink out of a glass.  Blake and I brought the horse trailer home from Idaho Falls with the Explorer.

 Oct 15 - My 61st birthday.  Brian's family surprised me with a cake, so we had an impromptu little party. Cindy had the beautiful flowers sent to me.  Thank you!

 Oct 16 & 17.  Ryder made this cute spider hat at the Snake River Library, then he got tired and slept in the chair. The next day, he got tired when we drove to Idaho Falls.

 Oct 19.  We went to watch Maden play basketball, then we all went to Texas Roadhouse to celebrate mine and Annie's birthdays.  She loves to sit on the saddle when they cheer for you, I'm good with just standing by the saddle.  Maden had a great time just reading his book.

 Oct 26 - We got to have Molly and Hallie spend the night while their parents were busy with Miss Bonneville.   They were very good girls. We gave Hallie a bath in the sink, and fixed her hair.  Molly and I loved watching "Frozen". We took the girls to watch Maden play more ball.

 Molly stayed in Idaho Falls to be part of the Little Miss Bee at the pageant, but Maden, Annie and Clark got to come spend the night with Hallie.  They watched "Toy Story 4", ate popcorn, played with Hallie and the track. Lynne, Rob, Ryan, Samuel, Michelle, Adam, Michael and James came for a few games.

 Tuesday, October 29 - What a cold, miserable, snowy day! It was a north wind, that blew drifts in strange places. It was the coldest October on record!

 Oct. 30 - Michelle and I took Ryder and James to the Snake River Library to trick or treat to some classrooms.  There were a lot of people there!

 Oct. 30 - This beautiful girl is 7! How does that happen?!

 Oct. 31 - Halloween - Randy dressed up from the movie Grease, using his old letter coat. Ryder was Spiderman. Courtney was Donald Duck for school, but I didn't get a picture of her when she picked up Ryder.  Ryder, Michael and James had fun at the trunk or treat at the school, even though it was cold and snowy.

 Jared is the best fisherman ever, look at all these cute fish he caught!

Clark, Maden and Annie all dressed up and ready for a cold time trick or treating.  Clark thought he was way cool to be a kitty like George.
