Porch Pumpkins

All last week while it was gray outside, I loved seeing bright spots of orange on porches around our neighborhood. So, on Saturday our family ventured to the family farm of brothers Caleb went to Jamboree with and picked out a bunch of pumpkins for our porch. It was fun... and cold.

We went to Secretariat on Friday night. We loved it. Family friendly, clean, inspiring.

On Saturday night, we went to Clint's work party. I really like the guys he works with and their wives too. We had a fun time visiting and eating yummy BBQ.

Other than that, we made some headway on Caleb's upcoming Eagle Court of Honor, Caleb went to the youth dance, Clint made an apple pie, we watched our first Primary Program in almost 13 years without our own children participating (instead they snickered along with us at the waving kids, the kids who yell into the microphone, the kids that take off running to their parents, etc...), we cleaned our porch, and we found a new puppy we'd love to adopt. Overall, good weekend.

Puppy belongs to someone else. ;-(
Caitlin says she will be patient while we wait for the momma dog to have more. And yes, Virginia- Caleb was told multiple times to wear weather appropriate clothing... he's just like his dad!

I'm just impressed that Caleb is smiling in these pictures! Jace is in a phase where showing your joy is evidently 'not cool'. :)

just read your response. i was told i couldn't put shane's shorts away for the winter because "it might get warm again." :)

Love the photos! The pumpkins make a fun, bright background.

What is it with the shorts? Jacob is still wearing his, too.
