This year we all dressed up for the big day. We had all the kids this year so we were so happy. Boyce and I were Pirates - Callen was a Grandpa - Cordell was a Girl - Emery was the scary Witch - and Julian was Darth Vador.

Now the funnest part of October, Boyce's favorite holiday of all - Halloween. Here is a picture of Courtney and Aaron at the trunk or treat we all did for the Christmas Box.

Gap had a photo contest and we entered Julian - Here is the picture sent in. If you want to vote for him you can go to gap.com and vote starting December 8, 2008 - Even if he doesn't win the contest he is a winner with us - Go Julian!

As you know Julian is now in Pre-School and October brought his first field trip to Sweet's Candy Store. Julian wasn't as interested in the Candy - if you can believe - he just wanted to ride the big yellow bus. Even when they returned and had to tell what their favorite part of the trip was Julian's answer was the "big bus"!

Julian absolutely loves dads new Harley. He couldn't wait to go for a ride.

October brought some colder weather and along with that some fun times. Boyce surprised me by taking me to California for a weekend to be in a commercial with my favorite band of all time Nickelback. It was so cool to be there being apart of the action. Chad rocks!

If you know us you know that our kids are into all kinds of sports. They play Soccer, Football, Basketball and Baseball.

This past summer Callen tried out for his first Soccer Comp League and made it on Team USA - yeah Callen! His games were all over the place but very fun to watch. Boyce was able to see him score a goal which was awesome.
