October!

We tried braids during General Conference for wavy hair! And it looks like i forgot to take an after picture :)


Lots of bike rides!


Gardner Village with Aunt Ashley!



We went to see the Traveling Tabernacle. So cool!





Ellie fell off her bike on the way to school and fractured her wrist. I got a call from a neighbor saying she had fallen. When i pulled out to go pick her up, I ran into Boston, who had promptly left his sisters in the dust and didn't know she was hurt haha. Whoops. 

I had NO idea it was broken. She complained of it being sore, so we kept ice on it, and it seemed to solve the problem. It wasn't until she tried to do a cartwheel and she screamed that I knew we had to at least get it checked out. 

It all happened on the first day of her basketball season, so she had to sit out for half the season. Bummer!

They put her in a stint & sling for a week first, before the cast.


Rylee had a REALLY bad case of warts. She had been scratching her leg, so I assumed she had a bug bite or something, and before I knew it, there were warts spread all over her poor little legs. We went to the dermatologist every other week for several months before they could get it under control. They started with an acid solution that formed blisters. We used that several times, until we realized that on each blister at least 3 more warts were forming around the ring where it was healing. Does that even make sense? So they started her on a chemo cream to basically kill her skin. We had to place it every night, cover it, and then rinse it off in the morning. It was pure torture for everyone involved I tell you haha.



Scabs starting to heal











Getting her cast on! She surprised us all when she asked for blue instead of pink or purple. She's growing up! :(


Gracie and I had a doctor appointment in Salt Lake, so we got to stop and have lunch with Dad! This doesn't happen very often anymore!


Boston's Halloween decorations


Parent's and Pastries with Bosty Boy!


We got to go to the zoo with cousins! So fun!



















Halloween party with the Roberts. The girls all decided they wanted to be the Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus. They turned out so cute and won "Best Family Costume" at our ward trunk or treat! Boston is also growing up and didn't want to join the theme haha. He was a "baseball player"























We had a lot of great Come Follow Me discussions!





We finally got around to building the shed!




Boston got to take care of my friends dog for a few days. 








Primary Program Practice!


My dad wasn't able to come on Sunday, so he came to the practice and was put right to work haha


Everytime I open the garage, Rylee pretends to use the force to open it :)


Halloween! The girls had SO much fun. You can tell Rylee was way into her role haha. Although Gracie refused to wear the wig...
