Coleman just got his very first job at Seven Peaks.  He isn't too happy about it, but is being a good sport.  He'd rather play all summer, but this will be a great opportunity for him to get some work experience.  I am excited for him, even though I will probably spend more money on gas getting him to work, than he will make!

Coleman as Falstaff

Although it was torture having to touch a girl, Coleman shone in his performance of a scene from Merry Wives of Windsor at his drama night.  

They carried him off the stage in a basket of "foul linen."

Making plans to woo the Merry Wives.

He was amazing!

Grandma Reeves came.

Good job, Coleman!  You were awesome.  We can't wait to see you in more plays.

Random Days of Fall

This was our activity for Family Home Evening on how we can do hard things

--including monkey bars--and actually finish things we start!

 McKay, Cy, and Jacob had fun with the costume box one night.

 Frankly, McKay makes a gorgeous girl.

 Nice face Cy!

 Jacob looks just like Luke here.

 Hobbsie loves resting her head on the kids' backpacks.

 The Primary gave me these flowers about how they can show love for the Savior.  I love Primary.


 Cy loved playing soccer this year.

 He was a great defender.

Cy must have been jealous that it wasn't his birthday.  

 My handsome boys with Cam on his birthday.

 Ada came over and loved the dog.

Spooky Dinner in its 10th Year

Spooky Dinner found its way to our house this year and--just as in the last 10 years-- 

we had a frightening blast!

 Jeff and Lisa were getting ready to serve their mission in 50 years.  Jeff's hair really might look like that!  

Calvin and Cy wanted to reenact Pirates of the Caribbean.  

Cy was the English Redcoat officer, and Cal was the evil pirate.  

Coleman was Duke from the Dukes of Hazard.
 Cam had a busy day at work and all he had time for was to be a joker.  I was a bat or something . . .

Daphne was an 80s girl, Emma, Sam, and Jeffrey were athletes and Abigail was a princess.

The Menu was delicious and frightening.

Odious Octopus

Sinister Spun Spider Eggs

Monster Eyeball salad

Witche's brew

Bloody Dragon Teeth

Wicked Wings that really were wicked.  Cy cried because his mouth was burning after eating them!

 We had spiders attack the soup.

 Lisa made an incredible Dark Forest cake.

 One picture just wouldn't have done it justice!

 Cy was amazed too!

Thanks for all the fun!
