Destrie's Birthday 11-11-11

Destrie turned 6 years old on 11-11-11. 

His birthday consisted of, a joint party with his cousin Dawson- who's birthday is 11-10.

                   Dallas Cowboy Birthday Cake.

He picked Texas Roadhouse for his birthday dinner...but we somehow lost those pictures. 

We love you Destrie.  You are the best 6 year old ever!

Oh wait...I forgot to post Halloween pictures

Destrie was Dracula when he dressed up for school this year.  He was in need of some new church clothes, so this costume was the perfect option.  Just add a cape and some face paint and...perfect.


This is the costume he wore for Trick or Treating...

I bought this costume on clearance last year at Family Dollar... it was $1.50.  I bought it just because it was a good deal, I had no idea he would love it so much...or that it would be so scary.

Madee and her friend went to a Halloween party dressed as cheerleaders.

And Kiley  didn't dress up this year..

Ok, now we are all finished blogging about October.

Wrapping Up October

We watched "Signs" in a cornfield in Lewiston with the Gibbons'.  It was so much fun!

Destrie played flag football.

We went to the Pumpkin Walk.

We also had 2 other "scary" nights with the Gibbons...but I failed to get pictures.

 Scary Night #1

We went to my parent's house in Clarkston, and Leroy Goodey came to tell scary stories.  He did this once before for Kiley and her friends.  We went down in my parents "haunted" basement, turned out the lights, lit candles and he told us stories about the City Creek Woman that haunts Clarkston.  He also told us about 3 haunted houses in the town.  Then, my brother, Eric told us about the scary experiences he has had in my parents basement.  We ate dinner and then we went and walked around in the Clarkston Cemetary...

Scary Night #2

We rented "The Watcher in the Woods" and watched it at the Gibbons' house.  We had dinner and then we went to Lewiston Elementary and went down in the tunnels underneath the school.  Legend has it, that a creature they call Man-Bear-Pig (He's half man, half bear and half pig?????) lives in the tunnels.  We didn't see him, but it was pretty spooky walking around down there in the dark!  

I love Halloween and scary stuff!  All in all it was a pretty good month.  Here's to hoping November is good also...

Snowbird Weekend #2

  October 13th-15th

Thursday, after work and school, we headed back to Snowbird.  Kiley's friend, Emmy joined us.

 Most of the snow had melted and the weather was fabulous.

We enjoyed caramel apples...like we do every year.

We went on a walk, to enjoy the lovely Fall weather.

There were a few chunks of snow left lying around.

We played pool.

Kile got back from St. George and came up to the condo Friday night.  We played shuffle board before leaving on Saturday.

So much fun!
