October Camera Clean Up

We have lots of pics from lots of different occasions:

Cambry following the "Rod of Iron" through the house for Family Home Evening

Little Monkey hanging out under her high chair

Cambry sitting, Vienna pushing.  Both happy.  Love it

Just before Trick or Treating on Halloween

Gardening with babies... FAIL

My poor kids have so much extra "iron" from all the dirt they eat... they're still the healthiest kids out of all our friends, so it must be alright.

Here's how meal time goes, because at some point I might look back at this stage with fond memories.  Vienna stuffs her face and is done almost as soon as we say "Amen", Cambry is whining about something that is or isn't on her plate, and by the time I take a bite Vienna is done and is climbing out of her high chair (WHY DID I CUT OUT THE SEAT BELT???).  After I wash her face and hands and sit back down and take a few bites, Vienna is squawking at either my knees or Devin's wanting to see what's going on or wanting something off of our plates.  About this time, Cambry is done without eating and is squeaking about something else.  Haha.  Devin and I laugh all the time about how statistics say that eating together as a family is supposed be one of the best things you can do in the home.  One day it may be true, but Devin and I both agree that our favorite meal is lunch... where he's alone at work and I'm alone because the girls are napping.

Wagon rides.  They were so good at taking turns

My little kitchen helpers 

We went to a bookstore to meet Brother and Sister Bernstein Bear.  Sister Bear had to get some fresh air before we got to meet her.  Brother Bear was still pretty cool.  Vienna hugged him and Cambry almost gave him a high five.

When one of the Elders gets transferred, we make them sing a duet on our hearth.  For some reason, the still keep coming back.  We love the missionaries in our home.

Halloween

Halloween was great to have a joint theme with our girls.  Our little monkey and banana were so fun.

Devin looking to be the zoo keeper

We had an indoor trunk or treat  a few days before Halloween.  Luckily Karate Kid made it to the jungle (Note Devin wearing a machete and a mullet.  Nice).

Cambry wasn't really in to trick or treating.  She only stopped at places where there weren't any other kids, didn't reach out for the candy when it was offered, and didn't

 want people to touch her or her bucket.  Hmm... She did manage to get a few pieces in her bucket.

And she had her first piece of chocolate.  I think she liked it

Later that night, when I was digging through her candy bucket, I found a piece of candy that she had bitten through the wrapper trying to eat it.

On Halloween Night, it was cold and rainy (why is it always SO COLD on Halloween??), so we went to the mall for some indoor trick or treating.  

Again, she was really into getting candy... 

...or not

Halloween and Fall Beauty

We made up to the mountains just in time to see the beautiful leaves before they all fell. The yellows were just stunning.

The greatest thing about this trip was that Cambry finally got to meet her great grandpa Wrathel (Devin's grandpa on his mother's side). It was great to see him.

Grandpa wrathel snapped this sweet family photo. As usual, Cambry is enjoying the great outdoors in her sleep.

The mountains in fall are just gorgeous.

For Halloween, Cambry was a cute little cow and Devin was her rancher.

Here is the whole Airhart clan in their Halloween get-up. Too bad, we never took a group photo with the Rappleyes. Note Joslyn's costume. We had to stick to our theme of making a big announcement with out Halloween costumes. We are headed to North Carolina where Devin will go to graduate school at North Carolina State University.
