Random catching-up

I thought I would add a few pictures and ramblings from over the last few months.

Anders joined the North Sevier 'Fast Pack' Cross Country team this year (for 5th - 8th graders). He did so well. He won many awards and improved speed. He also had a lot of fun. It was fun for us to watch.

Some first day of school pics :) First day of middle school for Kaydee! She was nervous about it, but she has loved it. It took Keaton some adjusting to get used to a full day of school but he has settled in just great.

Too bad Keaton is so camera shy.

Keaton, Anders, and Dylan after competing in a one-mile race. Anders finished first, then went back and ran in with Keaton. It was cute.

The American Fork Halloween 5k :) We do this race every year. It is at night. . . in a cemetery. It's a lot of fun and the proceeds always go to a good cause. This year Kyle decided to make costumes for himself and Anders (yes, I said make). He used old t-shirts, scissors, and Badge Magic (for installing cub scout badges). Batman and Robin did very well. Anders was only about two minutes behind Kyle! I wonder what Kyle will do when Anders starts beating him.

October was a great month. We did some fun fall and Halloween activities. The kids had fun making (and eating) a haunted gingerbread house. We dressed the kids up and took a few pictures of Alyssa, then our camera died! We have shots of all the kids on camera phones, but the quality is poor. :( I need to find some pictures from the ward Halloween party.

We are getting excited for the arrival of our baby girl. Maybe a little too anxious, I've been having contractions for several weeks. I've had three ultrasounds and some tests and, so far, the contractions aren't hurting the baby or starting labor. I'm just taking it easy and watching things carefully. We can't find any names that we love. We each have a couple names we like but,of course, can't agree on those. Hopefully, we will know what to name her when she arrives. Feel free to send us suggestions :)
