My Little Bro

My little brother is currently in GA at boot camp. Found this pic -- look at him working so hard! (He's in the middle on the bottom row)

Haven't been up to much...

Well we haven't been up to much... last weekend I took some wedding pictures for a friend. It was my first time doing something like that and I don't think they turned out too bad. I also designed their wedding announcement but that was last month.


Congrats again Jen and Keith.
I gave Boston his first haircut. Which was also my first haircut. Todd had to hold him down while I used the clippers on him - apparently 9 month olds don't like to sit still when there is a buzzing sound all over their head. I just trimmed his little mohawk with some scissors. It's not perfect but at least he doesn't look so wild now.

Trunk Or Treating

Saturday we went down to Downey for the Trunk-or-Treat. We also invited my mom up (who brought my niece and nephew). My mom's ward doesn't do a trunk-or-treat anymore and we wanted to make sure she saw Reese in her costume (that my mom mostly made). We thought the TOT started at 6:30 and at about 5:58 we found out it started at 6:00. You know these things last 20-30 minutes at the most - especially since it was pretty cold. So we quickly got the kids ready and loaded up in the car. So Reese's hair never got done all "princess like" - oh well. Her hair was all pretty when we went to our ward party so that will just have to do. Above: Mason, Brooklynn, Reese and the 2 grandmas.
Idiot me forgot Reese's coat and her dress doesn't isn't the warmest thing in the world. She is wearing leggings and a shirt underneath - good thing we were only there 25 minutes.
Dad, Boston, and Reese hitting up all the cars. Reese is a really slow trunk or treater... Mason and Brook kept having to stop and wait for her. It didn't help that at one of the cars a guy had a bucket that had hand inside that grabbed you when you reach in for candy - Reese was pretty hesitant at every bucket after that.
On the way home with all of her loot. She probably only likes 15% of the candy she got (she doesn't like chocolate) - so it's nice I won't have to worry about her getting on too big of a sugar high and getting sick.
Todd just toted Boston along. Next year he'll be able to trunk or treat. After the trunk or treat all of us went to Flags West for some dinner. It was a pretty fun night.
