Halloween Fun


A pretty bright pumpkin.


Four pumpkins for the four older kids. Amy isn't ready for a pumpkin according to her siblings.

All tricked out for Halloween trick or treating.

The kids loved Halloween. Emily was a pumpkin, Peter Gordon was a pirate, Hannah was a witch, and Becca was a "1950s girl." Amy was a baby cow. She likes milk. =) They got to trick or treat twice--once in downtown Springville and once in our neighborhood. After trick or treating we watched the original Star Wars movie. Peter Gordon thought the lightsaber fight between Darth Vader and Obi-wan Kenobi was awesome. The kids have been eating candy all day.

Field Trip Fun

Becca and Hannah both had field trips last month. I took a day off early in October and went with Becca's class on a field trip to Camp Floyd. We learned about life at the camp, went to a frontier school house, made a candle, and learned how to drill like soldiers. It was a pleasant outing and Becca seemed to enjoy herself. Last week Chantel took Hannah on a field trip to Hee Haw Farms. They went through a corn maze and wandered a pumpkin patch. They also went on a short hay ride.
The students file into school.

Becca gets ready for class in a pioneer school.

Hannah hangs out with the sign in front of the corn maze.
