Octoberities

We have done lots of things. Where to begin..... Iguess there is too much so I'll just write about this last week. This last weekend we went to a ward harvest/Halloween Party. We have a tradition of the whole family dressing like characters from a movie or book. My kids choice this year was Spiderwick Cronicles. Rhett is Jared Grace, Madeline a Water fairy, Aurora a flower sprite, and Maverick was a green boggart. The party was dinner and trunk or treat. (All I need, more candy around.) Then on Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch, and corn maze. Heidi's family was here for the weekend!
On Friday Maverick turned 6 months and got his first tooth pushing through. (eight months earlier than Madeline got her first tooth.) Aurora is enjoying gymnastics and preschool (mommy and me). Rhett has friends calling him almost daily. He is having fun in kindergarten even though everything is pretty easy for him. Madeline is having a good time in school but is a little too nurturing and social. (helping others do their work). She loves to help with Mav - usually. I had the flu last week and Aurora was sick also, but Maverick was finally happy.
Mike is comming home on Friday for 1 week!!!!
I chopped my hair - over 14 inches on Wednesday.
