More October Stuff

I love the month of October and we had many good adventures during its second half which are recorded below: 

The boys and Mom chopped up the buck and we came away with some good meat which so far has proven better than last year's deer. 

Jamie and I took an off-track trip to Vernal to see Dinosaur National Monument and it was a great trip! 

For Halloween Truman wanted to be a ghost. It was pretty great and fun and cute until he face planted at the first house and refused to be anywhere near that old sheet anymore. Alas. We still had fun with all the trick-or-treating and associated festivities and Burton was a very cute spider. 

We had many, many Jaker's visits

Pumpkin carving

Billy took his boys on a campout to Maple Dell, where they usually have scout camp and were having a special camp for peeps to come up and help with fire clean-up. He said it was pretty rough but you can see from the pictures that it wasn't really so torched as one might think based on all the hullabaloo during that fire time period. 

Truman has been working very hard at being nice to Burton (nice, get a pom-pom, mean, lose a pom-pom) and did fill up the whole jar so he got to pick a toy from the store. Of course he chose a sword, maybe because he wanted the added challenge of trying to be nice to Burton with an extra weapon lying around? 

A few good hikes on the trail 

Truman had his first visit to the dentist and totally rocked it. Didn't get those genes from me! But he loved it, did everything they asked him to do, got through a whole cleaning, didn't even need the movie on the ceiling which was broken and didn't have any cavities! He was a good bud. 

So yes, good month of October!
