Family Pictures and Things Are Getting Spooky

 On a long shopping trip Henry got to redeem his birthday cupcake at Coles/Starbucks and he was so happy for some chocolate cake

Henry playing some Sleeping Queens with his sloth

Shortly after we came home from church last Sunday there was a moose across the street

We saw the moose later on in the day on a bike ride and Nixon spooked it and made it run along the street on everyone's front lawns. It left its tracks in our front lawn.

We played some Skyjo as a family

We took advantage of a day without rain and got outside for some family pictures. Henry was ecstatic! 

This is the spot Kim scoped out on her early morning runs

Not too bad for a tripod on a chilly day

Look at those funny faces

Our cute boys

And the beautiful girls

Aren't they adorable?

Success!

The boys had fun doing some Halloween painting this week

We woke up one morning to discover the moose had eaten Kim's flowers, slept on our lawn, and pooped everywhere (not necessarily in that order)

They found them a few doors down on their walk to the bus stop

Introducing the Keyes Halloween characters this year:

Thomas the Train (with a train conductor's hat)

A smiling Ninja

Harry Potter

And Katniss Everdeen (aka the Girl on Fire)

That makeup aged her a few years

What a good looking bunch (just ignore the fact that Harry forgot to put on his pants for the picture ;)

On Thursday we had a trunk or treat for the local First District Bar Association (a bunch of lawyers)

Daddy's truck was the best stop

Then we had a ward chili cook off and trunk or treat at the church

The next day was a costume parade at the school and Lyza was a little embarrassed by her mom

Looks like Mason played strange as well

That evening we went as a family to the Halloween carnival at the elementary school and the kids got to play lots of games

Nixon won a Red Robin gift certificate playing Bingo

Our friends took possession of a cabin on Friday night so we got to go out there and check it out on Saturday

We even found a fishing rod and did some fishing off the dock

I of course took the drone up to get a better view

Here is a panorama with their cabin toward the middle

Here is a little video I put together

That's it for now.

Happy Halloween!
