Our gingerbread house

For FHE we decorated a gingerbread house. The boys had a great time deciding where to place all the candies and which ones they wanted to eat.

Shoveling Snow
Last night we got a litttle snow, so Kevin and the boys went out and shoveled the driveway and sidewalk. They had a great time helping Daddy and they certainly got the hang of it. Kenyon was really cute to watch throwing the snow to the side. Hunter was on a role and started to shovel our neighbor's driveway. Way to go Boys!
Once there was a snowman...
After shoveling, the boys went to work on building the first snowman of the season. Hunter did not like that the grass was showing once they started, but then he got distracted with completing their task at hand. The boys certainly liked looking for the eyes, arms, nose, and mouth.

Lights on Temple Square.
November 26, 2006
After having a family dinner and celebrating cousin Britton's birthday we all headed to Temple Square. Getting the boys ready to go was I think the hardest thing. This was the first time they would be wearing their heavy coats and gloves. Kenyon did not like being bundled up, but I didn't want them getting cold or sick. The lights were amazing as always and we had a great time with the family.

The boys had their hair cut on Saturday and our house was "beginning to look a lot like Christmas." So, before we left for church, we tried to take a few pictures.

Hooray for Pumpkin Pie!

This year I made pumpkin pie hoping the boys would try it. The boys loved it. Hunter likes it with whip cream while Kenyon just likes the pie - no whip cream or crust.

Happy Halloween!
The boys were so excited for Halloween, they had their costumes on for the majority of the day. We have learned that we should always take pictures early when they are pumped with excitement.
The Superheros are ready to take on the neighborhood.
Before actually going door to door, we went to visit Great Grandma Patterson. We had decorated cookies for her and brought her some chocolates. You could tell she was excited to have them visit her.
Hunter was a little scared to go trick-or-treating. Monday evening we went around to a few neighbors and delivered cookies. Most of them have dogs and really frightened Hunter that he was in tears. But after a few houses, Hunter was loving the whole trick-or-treat thing. Kenyon was so cute going up to the door with his pumpkin. He said "trick-or-treat" so cute that I wish I had taken the camera with us to get it on tape.
I thought the boys were pretty tried of walking around our neighborhood, but I was wrong. Hunter wanted to keep going. The boys had two pumpkins full of candy between them and I thought that was good. So we headed to Grandpa and Grandma Grange's. Hunter still wanted to trick-or-treat so he talked Daddy into taking him around his old neighborhood. The boys came home with even more candy. What a fun time they had.
Once we made it home, the boys were high on sugar. They were still all smiles and couldn't stop talking about their adventure.

Kenyon asleep in another strange place
Last night, I went to check on Kenyon and I found him asleep in the hallway. Not the most comfortable place to sleep but he was sound asleep. I think the new medication they have put him on makes him really tired since he slept really well last night.
For those of you who haven't heard, Kenyon had another febrile seizure Friday night. This is his second one due to a high fever caused by an ear infection. This time around though, I did not panic and we drove ourselves to the ER. I knew everything would be okay, so I was calm and just wanted to find out what was the cause of his high fever. I also know he is more susceptable to a fever induced seizure, so I need to be more aware of when he has a fever and do what I can to keep it down. Kenyon had an allergic reaction to the first medication the doctor prescribed, so his body is covered in hives. He is doing better today and is acting like himself and actually likes to take the new medication, which is a plus.

Carving our pumpkins
For FHE, we started carving our pumpkins. The boys were really excited and enjoyed every minute of it. After a couple hours the pumpkins were finished and look great. I guess next week we will carve the remaining two pumpkins before we get trick or treaters.
Kenyon carving his pumpkin. He had a great time and did a great job cleaning out the inside of the pumpkin.
Kenyon posing with his pumpkin after Daddy finished it.
Hunter had to pick the tall the pumpkin, so we got pretty slimed. He was a pro at getting all the pumpkin seeds out, so I can roast them.
