OCTOBER START TO FINISH!

I think this past October was one of the most fun months
of 2011. (Right up there with July!)

We took a trip to Portland to see Tim and Katy and little Alice
and Sarah and David and their family.
We spent a perfectly awesome day at Sauvie Island
and the Pumpkin Patch there.
 At the end of the week, John and Tiffany joined the fun !
So wonderful to have so many of our kids together again! 
Wish EVERYONE  could have been there! 
The Portland Temple grounds are so beautiful!
Grandpa certainly enjoyed his time with little Alice.

I know...difficult to tell who is cuter!!!
Still difficult to tell who is cuter!
What's better than time with a cousin?
Time with a sibbling!

We finally had to say "Goodbye".  First to Tim and Katy
then to John and Tiffany and Sarah and David.

We headed back home to "THE COAST".

Back in Port Orford we found some fun things at a garage sale.

We love our fiber-optic Jack-O-Lantern!
Is it a pumpkin with a witches hat, or a witch with a pumpkin head?
We decorated the house for the
ONE trick-or-treater that came on Halloween!
One trick-or-treater and one turkey
that was a little early for Thanksgiving.

A suprising end to October, a perfect beginning to November!
BRING ON THE TURKEY!
Bring on the GRANDCHILDREN!
