October Adventures

 October was filled with Church things for Josh, birthdays, and getting to know Quentin!

Kenna and I found ourselves totally twinning one day - even our pants and shoe brands matched!

Here is Quentin.  he is funny and kind and we like having him around.  He also gets down things from high places for me.  ;-)

Quentin is from Hamburg Germany and he is here studying finance and investing with Josh.

He'd never been to a pumpkin patch or corn maze, so of course we had to introduce him...

But the girls could not convince him to try the cow train!

Natalie had her first concert choir and they really sounded very good - I was impressed!

And Kenna attend a district Play-In, her first one as one of the high school helpers.  They played the theme music from Psycho...that was fun.

Our stake PR person made sure the community got to meet Josh.

Our hammocks are our most favorite summer time possession I think.

Our youth did a rock climbing trip.  Kenna and Natalie both said it was really fun!

We explored a new trail called the Enchanted Forest trail.  I don't know about being enchanted...but this was an interesting find!

Faith was student of the Month for October!

Kenna is so good and making creative gifts - this amazingly wrapped gift was for Jordan.

For Halloween Faith asked to be Maribel, from the Disney movie "Encanto".  Of course, being the youngest child and getting to the end of our halloween family dress-ups, Josh and I had to get in on that!

This is technically a November item, but Josh was released as our Bishop on November 6, about six weeks after getting called as Stake President.  It was a long month but we felt so sustained and supported by both the ward and stake members, but also by Heavenly Father.
