Fall is here!
A home near the Melanchuks has over 450 carved wooden pumpkins on display!
For others it was the "Walmart Pumpkin Patch" to get a pumpkin to carve!
That's the back of Camille.
The Melanchuks went to a Fall Festival.
The Shafers had fun apple picking!
Caleb seems very happy about his apple...
...but Lilian not so much!
But of course, Grandma Heidi can supply adorable pictures of her!
Everyone is ready for the big game!
Caleb loves slides!
Meanwhile Daniel continues to do lots of running on the cross country team!
The Melanchuks have made one of their rooms into a board game room, putting all the games on shelves and getting a new used table. The room also has their piano and the family computer.
We loved seeing most of the Perry family after the temple on a recent Tuesday:
MaryAnn came for lunch and visiting in the morning...
...and Brian and the three younger kids came for treats and visiting in the evening!
Nathaniel chose to walk around the grounds of the Bountiful Temple
after his early out day.
Jacob and Lily visited their 6th grade teacher:
It was also General Conference and the Melanchuks had tickets
for the Saturday morning session.
It was raining outside but they had a wonderful experience inside!
"Better early than on time."
Elizabeth got tickets to the Saturday afternoon session
from her former mission president, Elder Farias.
He spoke in the Sunday afternoon session
and told a story about a Sister Benson.
Elizabeth was companions with her twice!
And for some General Conference is a time
to relax at home!
Brian makes the most creative and fun pancakes for dinner
on the last day of General Conference!
A Family Dinner was held on October 12th at the Melanchuk's home with a theme of celebrating Canadian Thanksgiving. I heard that all of the food was excellent and that the company was excellent too!
Aubrey and Bethany had a school choir concert on John's birthday.
This is Bethany's choir and she is second from the right on the bottom row.
This is Aubrey's choir and she is fourth from the left on the bottom row.
I love sharing pictures from Kathryn of the friends she is making
in the Domincan Republic!
A beautiful sunset!
So Halloween is upon us and there is lots of outside decorating
and some of it a little bit scary.
Amanda got this picture of these skeletons across the street from their church building when she went there to practice the organ.
But this is the scariest sight at our home!
After over 30 years we finally had our dryer vent professionally cleaned.
The technician said it was not the worst he had seen but almost!
(Hard to tell in the picture but that is a large container
and it took him over two hours to get it all out!)
Beware! Lint can cause a fire and that would be really scary!!
