Honeymoon & Cheese

I was in the kitchen fixing lunch when I overheard this conversation between Hyrum and Corynn today.

HYRUM: "I'd like to go to outer space some day."

CORYNN: "Dad, you already did!"

HYRUM: "I did?"

CORYNN: "Yeah, you know right after you married mom, you two went to the Honeymoon."

HYRUM: (much laughter)

CORYNN: "Hey mom, did you eat the moon and did it taste like cheese or honey?"

Yum

Early this morning I gathered the girls and headed down to S.D. to get yet another bread making lesson from Mom(I believe this was like the 4th or 5th) and she showed me how to make the apples I cooked all night in the crockpot into apple butter. This is my finished product. Thank you, but the applause really aren't necessary. Oh and thank you Mom for spending your day off teaching me to make this homemade goodness!

One for the History books...

This morning over Cocoa Puffs, I broke the news to Corynn that our candidate and his "friend" did not win the election. I told her that Obama will be our President. I told her that I still feel good about my decision to vote McCain/Palin, and she said, "Me too mom, we voted for the right person they just didn't win." So there you have it. I was pleased to see that Arizonan's passed prop 102. One less thing to worry about. Way to go AZ!

Halloween

We had a great time Friday night. Hyrum's family came up from S.D. and we ate pizza then hit the streets in our neighborhood to do some trick or treating. This year Corynn was Little Red Riding Hood, Allison was Minnie Mouse, and Audra was a pumpkin (all 3 girls have worn that suit for their first Halloween). They had fun with all the cousins and now Corynn is already planning her costume for next year. My computer is not letting me add all my pics for some reason but here are a few. All the kids were so cute!

Last Minute Pumpkin Carving

October has been so crazy busy at our house so we didn't carve our pumpkins until just a few hours before we went out trick or treating! But we did get it done thanks to Hyrum and the girls loved it. Corynn shared all the pumpkin facts she had learned earlier in the week at school with us. Alli mostly giggled and said, "Eww stinky, gross!" the whole time.
