Happy Halloween!

We started a few weeks ago celebrating Halloween by making sugar cookies. The kids love to make them and help with all the cutting out and frosting. Jon likes to eat all of them! We made 110 cookies on a friday and by Saturday night they were gone! Now the kids had a few but I think Jon ate almost all of them!

Here we are all carving our pumpkins! Brianna & Heidi weren't too thrilled to have to clean theirs out.

They kept asking Caleb & Mallory to do theirs for them!

The finished projects! What cute designs each of them came up with!

Jon even had to carve a pumpkin that had the LOTOJA symbol on it. We got more comments on that pumpkin than on all the others.

Caleb, Mallory & Jack all ready to go trick or treating for the night. Jon & Grandma Robison took them trick or treating while Grandpa Robison & I stayed home to handout the candy.

Heidi dressed up to go to school for the day as a pirate.

Family Pictures!

Oh the joys of family pictures! I don't know if there is anything more stressful for me than this. I decided we needed to try and get a family picture before the weather turned bad so we hurried and got us all ready one afternoon after school and drove to a park near our house. We decided we would just take the pictures ourselves since it is so hard to get all of us looking at the camera and we have a few children who still don't like pictures taken! I have to say that the pictures we got are better than I expected. I'm just glad to have it over with!

As you can tell in most of the pictures Jack is a handful and is goofy in each of the pictures we tried to take!

Again goofy Jack!

We have three girls who love to pose for pictures!

Jack was afraid he was going to fall into the river below during these pictures!

Red Ribbon Run 2009!

Heidi, Mallory & Caleb decided they wanted to do the red ribbon run this year. Heidi & Mallory have done it in the past but this was Caleb first year doing it. They had a fun morning doing the run with their friends.

The Robison's and the Goldman's all ready to start the run!

Way to go Caleb! He did the 1 mile by himself and was able to finish it. He got seperated from his friend and still went on to finish the race.

At the finish line with their medals.

Heidi and Mallory did the 5K and Caleb did the 1 mile.

We are proud you!
