Well, it was another fun Halloween. Our branch didn't have a trunk or treat this year, so we just took the boys to see a couple of people from church. For only going to 6 houses, Carson made quite a haul! Tonight was a play-off game for the highschool football team so the majority of our town was at the game, meaning lots of candy for the few kids that came around! The boys looked super cute. Carson was the Hulk and Travis was a cow ...enjoy!
Yesterday, Carson got a package from his grandpa and grandma Asay. Today...he got one from grandpa and grandma Foulger...spoiled little boy. Thanks so much, mom and dad, for the fun package. He loved opening it and kept saying wow with each thing he pulled out!
Carson and Travis got a package in the mail today from grandpa and grandma Asay. Carson loved pulling out each piece. As he pulled out the candy, he would say..."OOO, this is my favorite!" He's now set on candy...I don't think we will need to go Trick-or-treating now! Thanks so much you really made their day!
Monday afternoon, Christian and Carson decided to rake the leaves in our front yard. They had them all raked into piles and started to put them into bags when they decided that the bags we had were too small and it would take them forever to put all the leaves into the bags so they stopped until I could get some more bags. Well, since then, we have had some ucky weather and we still have 4 piles of leaves in our yard. Maybe today we can get them picked up. Here are some pictures of their hard work.
...As she is known to Carson (Christian gave her the name)! My sister came to spend her Fall break with us this weekend and we had so much fun while she was here. She's going to school in Logan so when we go home, she's not there for us to see any more...sad day. We went out to eat, went ot he pumpkin patch, and just had fun being together. She had to fly home Sunday and Carson was one sad little boy. His Auntie Butts spoiled the heck out of him while she was here. Thanks for coming and spending you days off with us, Megan. We had lots of fun while you were here!
Playing in the Leaves
This is what happened when Carson got to spend a week with Uncle Daniel.
The company that Christian works for mainly does crop consulting. Their summers consist of making weekly checks on contracted fields for farmers. When the summer is over, Christian fills his time with soil sampling. This consists of riding a 4-wheeler out into a field sticking a probe into the ground up to 20 inches, and then sending the soil into one of their labs for analysis. As you can imagine, their 4-wheelers get pretty well used between the summer months and the spring/fall. Well, late this summer we had gotten around 8 inches of rain during the weekend and when Christian went to work on that Monday he rolled his 4-wheeler due to a big wash out in one of the roads. He managed to bruise a couple of ribs and was sore for quite a while, but luckily he didn't break anything. He did, however, manage to total his 4-wheeler and has been anxiously awaiting the arrival of a new one (he had been using an old...not very good intern one in the mean time). Well, he finally got to go and pick up his new one yesturday and spent most of the afternoon today "pimping" it out...crop consultant style! He had to add a cigarette lighter for GPS, a basket to carry the soil samples, probe holder, mirrors, and bucket holders (sorry...I don't quite know the correct terminology for all these things) to his machine so that he can jump right into sampling the rest of this week!
