Fall is so much fun. Here are the kids Halloween Party pics. Kate loved being a princess and sang fun songs for the moms at her party. Audrey and her teacher had were doing an impromptu ho-down together during her party. And Carson was a spooky vampire this year.

Shortly after these pictures were taken, we hopped on a plane and flew to Texas to spend the weekend. We haven't been back to visit my family there for about 3 1/2 years, so it was quite an adventure for all of us!

We spent some time with my sister's family at Sea World San Antonio. It was a beautiful fall day - and hardly any other visitors, so it was perfect.
We got everyone that could on the

Steel Eel - one of the best regular
rollercoasters I've been on. Here are Josh and Julie up front, Chad in the back, and shorter kids on the other seats. We rode the rides and saw shows until the park closed late that night. The main feature for Audrey was being able to feed the dolphins. What a dream come true and they were eating out of her hands.

Another highlight of Texas was the beach. We played there for a few hours on Saturday and then again on Monday. What fun to be enjoying the beach when the Utah world was receiving cold wind and rain. The rest of our time there was spent with family and yummy meals and we are so grateful the
Weatherstons for hosting us!

Here are Audrey and Carson at a
BYU game. They had fun getting their face painted and getting handouts at the
pre-game tailgate party. What a fun day. In November, my ward volleyball team had fun competing in the regional tournament. We made it to the second phase before losing in a single elimination tourney. Fun.

My mom came to visit for a week at the end of the month - and it was wonderful. She taught Audrey how to sew on my machine and Audrey made a quilt. What a neat project for them to do together. The other kids loved having
Nanna around as well.

Thanksgiving. Yum, yum! We filled the gym with
Iversons - and enjoyed a yummy meal. Then afterwards, we played a little basketball. We had a blast trying to remember how to shoot. It was fun to work off a little of the calories of the day.

The next day - Black Friday - my first experience. I have always stayed away - but I gave it a try. It was definitely an education. Looking back, it makes me laugh, but getting 2 hours of sleep, standing in line by myself for 1 1/2 hours and not getting my top item stand out as
deterrents from going next year.

So, who is the cutest baby in the universe? Our entire house is sure that it is Graham. He is so

adorable. He got sick a couple of times this month, and seems to be teething yet again. (he already has seven!) But despite all that, he still wants to smile and play. He has just turned 9 months old and is Mr. Personality. Anyway - we love that cute little guy!
