Detoxing from a long trip

We spent the last weekish in Utah visiting family and attending brother Dan's wedding.

Dan and Lexie, we are still not sure how Dan talked her into marrying him.

Any who I have about 1000 pictures to wade through this week, along with making my Christmas card. (Edit to post-just ordered Christmas cards.)

Here are a few pictures to get you started. So it turns out family pictures are just as hard when someone else is taking the pictures

What am I doing here?

And the crazies. Merry tied herself the fanciest scarf knot ever. It only took 30 minutes to detangle her.

Halloween

After saying that he "had already been everything that was awesome," Jacob finally decided on a knight. I guess this is a demonstration of a knightish move.

Merry requested a pink and turquoise butterfly this year along with green eye shadow.

Grace loves owls. Why? I really have no idea, I am not really a bird fan myself.

She trick or treated at 4 houses but then was so worried that she might not find me in the dark she climbed in the stroller for the rest of the night.

Adam dressed as a tiger because that is the costume we had in the dress-up box that fit him.

Jacob giving everyone a pep talk.

As we are no longer subdivisionites, we went to some friends house for hotdogs and trick or treating. Here is the treat seeking troop.

P.S. I always think I am going to make every costume. In the end I made half of 2 costumes. That sort of counts as a whole costume, I think.
