10/31/18 Halloween


This morning Peter shared some of his sidewalk chalk with Sarah, TJ and Joseph.


Heidi and I spent time with Brother Turner cutting the wood into the right shapes for the Cub Scout stool kits. Roger from Home Depot kindly donated the wood we needed for the project.


Rebecca wore her Hawaiian outfit to school today.

This evening, Heidi and I took the kids plus Becca B trick or treating. It is amazing how many kids come into the neighborhood to trick or treat. It is nice to have a place to live that feels so safe and welcoming.

10/30/18 Roadside Assistance


This morning Heidi went to Sharon's rescue, helping her replace her car battery.


Then she came home and helped park the motorhome back in the side yard. We put wood under the tires to hopefully avoid some of the trouble we had with mud in October.



Today was Sarah's third day of Softball. She is having a blast.

Heidi's toe got scrapped by the door as she was opening it. Ouch! Poor thing I hope she gets better soon.

For FHE we taught the kids about the family history roots related to Halloween.

We told Peter that he was getting this big box for his birthday. He loved it!


He also loves his green bike from Gram and Papa and Mom and Dad.







David overcame his fears and went with me to his robotics competition.


They had some setbacks . . .


But in the end they emerged victorious, taking first place for the day.


David and I then spent 3 hours at the library 3D printing a gift for Rushton to give his mother.


It's a Christmas house.


Peter's good friend Alex came to his party.


Joseph is also a fan.



Grammie and Grandpa Mangum got Peter a Pikachu pokemon.


Becca B got him sidewalk chalk. He's been using it already.
