October Misc.

 Here are some more pictures from October:

Cute little skitter critters




Sleepy heads in their box

They love it when Nora visits!

Sam and Oliver

We saw The Magician's Elephant at Hale Theater


Sam got braces!


Cute Dorie

Sam and I helped with "build day" at the Jr High to help get ready for the fall musical, which is Descendants. This is a Saturday where they try to get as many people as possible to come and help build and paint the set pieces. 

Sam and some friends trying to help this first layer of paint try faster so we could get started on the next step

He and I painted a lot of grout on the stone walls


Timid little one

Feeling a little more relaxed


Our book club book this month was Crocodile on the Sandbank by Elizabeth Peters. It is the first book in one of my mom's favorite book series. Since it was a really busy month for scheduling, we ended up having our book club meeting after Sunday dinner one week.

Some Egyptian things my mom put out for our discussion

During our meeting, we were joined by the mummy from the book


The mummy ended up staying for the rest of book club, lol

The ratlings looking for treats in their boxes tunnel


When Juno has zoomies

Nora went up to Wyoming for USU "Sheep Day" 

Chillin' kitties



Dorie hanging out with Nora during one of her visits


Nora watched one of my favorite childhood Halloween movies with me - Raggedy Ann and Andy and the Pumpkin Who Couldn't Smile



Oliver loves loafing on Flubby

One day Ev was driving, and I was riding in the passenger seat, and I noticed Oliver looking like a little statue in the front yard when we were pulling into the driveway

Oliver greeting me when I was getting back from a walk

Little One looking amazing with the Halloween decor


I was washing something in the kitchen sink and looked out the window, and saw Oliver sleeping in the backyard like this

He still loves the stairs

Mike and I tried out a new ice cream place that opened nearby

Grammy has dubbed Ev the "Fruit Princess" since she has been doing the fruit for Sunday dinner since Andrew graduated

Her Halloween-themed fruit platter

My mom's tablescape for the month


We celebrated our October birthdays - Kate and Grandpop. Monty wanted to help light the candles on the cakes.


The birthday kids

Charlie loves to cuddle inside my hoodie

Poor Dorie when I was asking her to go into the bathroom for her shower, and she REALLY didn't want to

Getting a treat after the shower

I've been trying to teach the rats a few tricks. They are doing pretty well with going through the tube on command

Ev and I went shopping at the TM Outlets while they were decorated for Halloween





Oliver looking Halloween-ish while hanging out with Beetlejuice
