Halloween '09

Last year when Shelby was almost 11 months old, Halloween wasn't very eventful. We dressed her up for as long as she could stand, took a few pics, and then called it a night. This year the weather was perfect for her first full on experience of trick-or-treating and she loved every minute of it! She didn't know quite what to do at first, but after the first few knocks and getting free candy, she was a trick-o-treating machine. She and her best friend Kaylen knocked on doors non-stop for an impressive 1.5hrs! Shelby couldn't get enough candy and we couldn't stop taking pictures of our cute lil' ladybug!

We hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!

The Pumpkin Patch '09

Just thought I'd share some photos from our trip down to the local pumpkin patch with some friends. The little girl in blue is Gretta, my neighbor's daughter. I take care of her 9.5 hrs a day, 3-4x a week. Shannon and her daughter Aurora are also our neighbors, as well as members of the church. We are still loving Vancouver and are so blessed to have great neighbors and friends.

Hope you're having fun this fall season!! Enjoy :)

B-Square Museum

In June, we spent a good amount of time in Scott's home town of Kirtland, New Mexico. It's about 20 minutes outside Farmington, near the Four Corners area. After a few weeks we were running out of things to do, not to mention money too. Well if you ever find yourself in Kirtland and need to get the kids out of the house without spending any money, the Tom Bolack "B-Square" Museum of Fish & Wildlife is the place to go.

It reminded me a lot of the Bean Museum on BYU campus, except everything in this museum was actually caught by Mr. Tom Bolack himself,a former governor of New Mexico. He definitely had some serious free time and money to have traveled around the world and gather all those creatures. I've never seen so many animals on display in one place. It was especially enjoyable for Shelby to see such a wide variety of animals that she could actually touch without worrying if they'll scare or take a bite out of her. We also definitely appreciated the extra bonus of avoiding the stench that usually comes with the sightseeing of the "live" critters at the zoo.

Thanks Grandma and Papa Wells! It was great to get out and see more of Kirtland and spend some extra quality time with you :)
