Halloween

 Mike and I dressed up for a Halloween party with our friends

Whitney went to soccer practice. What a mean coach

Halloween afternoon Teegan walked past a big box in the garage and decided he wanted to be a lego or a robot. Whitney and I spent the next few hours making him a robot costume. It only lasted a street or two and he came back home to change. He could not walk very fast and worst of all he could not put his arms together very well to get the candy and put it in the bag. All the work, sigh. Oh well, he said everyone told him it was the best costume of the night.

End of Season

   A  plain bar of iron is worth about five dollars. But that same iron, if made into horseshoes, would be worth $10.50. If it were made into needles, it would be worth $3,285. And if turned into balance springs for watches, its worth would be over $250,000.

Apparently the value of the raw iron is only what it costs to process it from the hill. Its greater value is determined by what is made of it. People are much the same as iron. You or I can remain nothing more than raw material, or we can be polished to a high degree. Our value is determined by what we make of ourselves.

Jump!

Teegan bought a trampoline with all his birthday money and everyone has been having a blast!

 It is up against the house because they keep trying to climb up on the roof and jump off.

While we were in Utah this summer I looked out the front window just as my dad came around the corner on his red tractor. A minute later here came Teegan on the little red tractor that we have had since we were kids peddling as fast as his legs would take him.

 They had a great time playing farmer with Grandpa Gary

Whitney's art drawing

This is a drawing Whitney did for her art class. They had to put 3 items together, take a picture of it and then draw it. I think she did a great job. She says it is hanging in the school somewhere because she got 100 on it but she does not think it is very good.
