Hello out there! Sorry for the lack of bloggage lately- after months of computer breakdowns, we finally broke down and got a new one. So, yes, we are alive and I promise to keep you updated, at least now and then.

Halloween!

(We were actually going for the super hero theme, but Levi screamed bloody murder when I tried to put on the superman costume; however, he did make a pretty cute frog)

Trick or treating was CRAZY here! This is a pretty bad picture, but I was trying to capture the  endless amounts of cars parked along our normally quiet street- getting in and out was like parking at a BYU football game. We were out doing some trick-or-treating ourselves, but our neighbor said he gave away almost 500 pieces of candy! We were home for 5 minutes and gave away 20 pieces. I guess the kids from the reservation ride buses into Farmington and they drop them off at a big church near our house. Everyone else drives in (as you can see)

This is my super-scary zombie sister who danced for the youth Odyssey team in Thriller


So, we've been traveling a lot lately- Ben's job is going to change quite a bit in January and only 1 of the current 13 CRNAs is staying. So, we went to Twin Falls, Pueblo, and Coos Bay for job interviews only to decide on working at the surgery center here in Farmington. We did have some fun trips though!

Fun trip to Utah for one of my best girls, Brittany's baby shower!

And a couple pictures of my favorite boys:

We're doing a mom-and-me preschool with 4 other boys.
 Dayton came home a chef one day and now wants to help cook all the time. 

Levi- always coming up with something!
