October happenings

No wonder I couldn't catch my breath this month. It's been one thing after the other, but I guess that's the life of a mom right?
We had a Family Pinewood Derby Race on Friday October 22Th. Our ward handed in some kits to each family to build your own car but we didn’t have any time to build ours, so we brought in two of the kid’s favorite toy cars to race.

Of course we had no chance competing against magnetic cars, RC cars and air propelled cars but overall we had a great time. Not to mention they provided dinner so I didn’t have to cook.
The next day we drove up to Cornish to visit Spencer's grandma. It was her birthday and she wanted to have all her family there.
It was an intense ride, the kids were wonderful, what wasn't so great was driving on a rain storm through the canyon. The ending of the storm was neat though. You could see the final rain drops mingled on top of the mountains with the last bits of sun rays.
Our visit to G'ma Smith was great. We visit with her and she was finally able to meet our A.D. These pictures are priceless.
