We have been loving the fall weather! What a beautiful November we have had. It snowed a few days ago for the first time this season. We've been having a blast making up different hot cocoa and steamers. The boys are starting to initiate their own games of football. It is ridiculously adorable. Braxton will usually ask one of the younger boys if they want to go play and they all end up in the front yard tackling each other. Ryan took Braxton to the BYU game on their date this month. He got to choose where they ate and get a souvenir from the store. They were both in heaven. My favorite was seeing braxton reenact plays the next morning. Ryan turned 30 last month and we were able to get away for a week long vacation. It was so wonderful to just be together. We went to Yellowstone and Jackson Wy and just relaxed, played tennis, hiked, and enjoyed quiet. :) I don't have any updated pictures on this computer, but I'll add some to this post later. We had a great October with the usual events. We have a tradition of "Ghosting" friends with plates of goodies every sunday night. The boys LOVE leaving secret goodies with their friends. Thanksgiving Point had some great events for the kids to participate in; story telling, the barnyard boo and Cornbellies. We started a new system with the boys to help them "self start" when getting ready for the day and it is going well! It's changed our little world. Ryan begins his PhD Program in just a month now. I'm so excited for him to have found such a great fit for what he wants to study. He loves the people and program already.
