Halloween!

The day before Halloween it was 15 degrees and snowy. At first we were worried that Halloween might be cold as well, but today was MUCH warmer at a balmy 23 degrees! That is until evening, when the temperature plummeted to 6 degrees, poor Brielle wasn't sure if Trick-or Treating was fun or not for awhile.

Brielle was a little lady bug!

After the Church Trunk-or-Treat, we went to the mall where they had indoor trick or treating from store to store. Elle liked the indoors much better!!

And once we got home both Russell and Ella immediatly ripped into the candy, devouring as much as possible before bed time!!

Snow?

This stuff is cold like ice cream but it sure doesn't taste as good!

A Day on the Farm

We went to the Rocky Creek Farm with Brielle's baby group. Brielle got to go on a hay ride and pick out gourds and pumpkins. (she didn't get to keep any, because she already had hers at home, but she picked out some good ones!)

Leaves, leaves and more leaves!

Water Slides

When we went on the Ward Temple trip to Billings last weekend, a lot of the families stayed in the same hotel, and half of the parents went to the temple Friday night and the other half went Saturday morning. Meanwhile all the kids got to swim and go on the water slide both times. Brielle's Grandma and Grandpa Francis took her on it the first night and she loved it! So the next morning her Daddy took her down the slide over and over, (and a couple of times she went down with Mommy) until the last time where she laid her head down and tried to sleep on the way down. That's when her parents knew she had had enough!

One Week of Autumn

Well, our one week of Autumn has come and gone. Brielle loved playing with the leaves while she could. (a few days later they were covered in snow and frost!) Whenever we would help her walk outside, as soon as her feet hit leaves she'd lift up her legs so that we'd have to put her down and then play for as long as we'd let her, perfectly content with just a handful of leaves. Then she'd look up at us like we were the most wonderful of parents to have put them there for her!
