hello november

Halloween was fun this year..except for two pumpkins missing. Arizonians get INTO this holiday. They come out of there houses - it being delightfully "cool" now ( 82 today)- and sit on their front porches with fellow neighbors and pass out candy. They visit while the kids trick or treat. They decorate their houses up too. We sat in our living room with the door wide open and Preston gave out candy after he was done with walking our neighborhood.
Denver was an Unbelievably good sport. We decided that Buddy the Elf was the perfect costume for him..but we couldn't talk him into it. But he did go for the Pillsbury doughboy hat that hasn't seen the light of halloween since Kevin wore it back in 2002. Harrison had two buddies from school and Denver ( never one to make plans ) went out with them. Someone asked him if he was the dad !! And Denver just takes it in stride. Plus neighbors were very generous with him..so who cares if they think your a dad?!
Devin is putting this on her blog too..but I took the picture and love it..so it goes on mine as well. Porter is the other good sport in the family. He went as a pepsi can -of course. We don't go all out on costumes. Oh, random tag-on. Harrisons Jr. Varsity soccer team won the championship last week. They had a "banquet and awards" and Harr received, "the team hippie". The only LDS boy on the team, and he is seen as a hippie. Interesting. Probably has to do with his hair, but I believe it is more because of his groovy thoughts.
