Happy Halloween!!

We had fun making pumpkins for Halloween today. Marthe was the most ambitious.
Have a great Halloween tomorrow!

It's always fun to update a few pictures, even if I don't have a lot to say. Marthe and I are getting a bit of sleep here and there. I have decided that I'm just in a constant state of almost-awake which probably equals a full nights sleep. . . eventually.
She's worth it though.

A few more fun things before going back to work

We took the kids to the local pumpkin patch on Monday to get some pumpkins. They have tractors there that the kids like to sit on. We got a bunch of pumkins for 6.00. It's a great deal and only a couple minutes from the house (behind the movie theater). It was a nice warm day so Sadie even came along.

Yesterday (Tuesday) I was still off work so I could take Tommy with his preschool class to HEE HAW. It was a fun trip. Tommy and Spencer enjoyed walking through part of a corn maze, going down slides, seeing a 1000lb pig, going on a hay ride and picking out some more pumpkins to take home.

She's Here!!!

Sadie Ann Henderson was born at 12:37 am.

She weighed 6lbs 12oz.

She was 19.5" long.

She has strawberry-blonde, slightly curly hair.

She has Tommy's eyelashes (now we won't have to hear about the lashes being "wasted" on a boy. :)

Mom and baby are healthy and doing fine.

The boys are hanging out with Grandma Lael and are excited for the new addition to the family.

Mission Reunion

I enjoyed going to my mission reunion the other day. To the right of me is Raymond Waldon and to the right of him is Carson Howell and to the right of him is Moroniah Walden. All three of these lovely folks were serving at the same time I was serving. It was really fun to see them. The Waldens have two beautiful children and the Howells had two cute ones as well. Carson's little girl was very cute and was very social. My boys enjoyed running around with the Walden kids and Carson's son.
Elders Beene and Hall got stuck in traffic and were not able to make it up. That's ok, it just made it easier to tell jokes about them. :)

Canstruction - The iCan

Ok so I am trying to upload more pictures but the site is giving me a hard time.

I was able to upload one image at least.

I worked with others at my work to participate in this year's canstruction event for the Utah Food Bank (http://www.csc-ut.org/).

We raised money for the cans and the idea for the design just kind of landed on me as I was driving home one day. It was a fun project and although we did not receive any awards, it was very worthwhile.

It took more time than I expected, but no one wanted to head it up. So it was either Dave's in charge, or we just won't do it this time.

I have a hard time passing up opportunities to help the homeless and hungry people of Utah.

So there it is. The iCan. I designed the board to look like an advertisement for an iPod.

The sculptures will be on display for a couple weeks.

Ok, I'll try and upload another picture.

Oh good. It worked. Now you have 2 pictures to look at.

Enjoy!

It was bigger in real life

This was my view as I arrived at work the other morning.

The moon was huge, however the photo does not make it look as big as it seemed.

Anyway, I thought it was cool enough to take a picture.
