October 2011

My cute little skeleton. He couldn't be scary.

My beautiful butterfly. I love that smile and those freckles. For one of the Family Home Evenings in October we carved pumpkins. We had grandma and grandpa Barlow over for dinner and then grandma, the kids, and I stayed in and carved pumpkins, while dad and grandpa split wood and filled the trailer.

Ryan with his finished pumpkin. He was so happy to have a pumpkin on the porch.

Grandma Barlow helping clean out the pumpkins.

Annalynn with her finished pumpkin. She was happy to have a pumpkin on the porch too.

Red Ribbon Week was in October and Annalynn had a crazy hair day for that event. This is what we came up with.

October was filled with many day of Elk and Deer hunting. This is one of the sunsets that I saw while we were coming home from Elk hunting. Of course a camera never does it justice, but I thought it was beautiful. We had one elk and one deer tag this year. We were not able to fill the elk tag, but we did get our deer. We got one gallon bag full of ground meat for jerky, since Rustin has become quite the expert at jerky making. He actually has people asking if he can do it for them and they pay him. We also got 14 pints of bottled meat our of the deer.
