Here are pictures from the last week at our house. Halloween seemed to be a week long celebration this year! Duncan was Iron Man and Clayton was an adorable little duck this year. To start off, we went to the FFA's pumpkin decorating contest (which we supplied the pumpkins for) on Wednesday, then Thursday we opened the pumpkin patch for its last night of the season, which turned out to be very successful I think. Duncan had his party at school on Thursday since they didn't have school on Friday and then Nephi had its Halloweentown celebration Friday after noon. The kids had fun trick or treating the main street of Nephi. On Saturday we fixed fence with Grandpa Phillips so the cows could be moved and then hurried home for more trick or treating. The trunk or treat is always fun and then off through the neighborhood we went. Duncan loves to walk through our neighborhood with his dad and go to "every" house. Both the boys had fun and they gathered up plenty of candy to last us until Easter I think!
On Sunday we moved the cows out to the pasture, tagging all of them first. Duncan and his cousin's had all sorts of fun helping and running the chutes then we hurried home for our first annual pumpkin launching contest. We called it family home evening for the month and had Richard's parents and all of my siblings over to launch pumpkins and have "dinner in a pumpkin". The pictures are self explanatory.... my husband is the biggest kid ever and let me tell you, everyone got a good laugh. We had enough fun that everyone insisted we do it again next year. Enjoy the pictures!
