So we had a "trunk or treat" ward party this passed week. The kids have had the flu this week so they were still kind of feeling grumpy and tired a little. They weren't quite themselves in these pictures, but that is ok. They are doing better now. Brayden was pretty tired, but Katelyn had fun modeling for us. I made Brayden's costume and the wigs. The dress that Katelyn is wearing is actually one that I had when I was her age. 
I guess fall is officially here now. It is getting colder and the trees are changing. We just though these pictures were so cute. We took these at the movie theatre yesterday. One thing that is nice about Ozark, it is close to Springfield which means closer to shopping and other fun things to do! 
So we have moved to Ozark Missouri. It is about an hour from Ava. So far we really like it. Thanks to everyone's help we have been able to make the transition pretty quickly. Today was our first time attending our new ward and the kids really did well. There are definitely a lot of kids in the ward so that will be fun! We are still not hooked up to the internet yet, but we are tapping in to the church wireless internet so we could post some pictures. Grandma Nancy has been asking for some pictures of our Duplex, so here they are:

Katelyn and Brayden are sharing a room now. They are doing really well actually! They really like it. This is Katelyn's side.
Brayden's side of the room...
Toy Room! That is a necessity!
Their bathroom...
Kitchen and dining Room... We just need some window treatments and some more things to make it more like "home."
Happy Birthday Brayden!
So we asked Brayden what kind of a birthday he wanted and he asked us for a "Peter Pan" and "Captain Hook" party. I talked it over with my older sister and asked her what she thought might be fun to do. She and her girls came up with a "Treasure Hunt" play. Thanks to the fathers of all the boys in the family, we were able to make quite a production. It was a beautiful day and we had a lot of fun!
Here's Katelyn eating her snack before bed... 
Here's Brayden... Do you notice anything funny?
He prefers to sit in the windowsill every time he eats. It's so funny!
He's like "What mom?"
The local fire department came and visited the primary children last saturday. Brayden was so excited! The firemen talked to everyone for a while and then the kids washed the fire truck for them as a service project. 
"All the boys" Bryson, Uncle Josh, Jarom, Brayden, Daddy, and Weston... Listening to the firemen.
Here's Brayden driving the truck!
They let the kids climb on the top and check everything out. 
Time to wash it! 
Great job everyone! I think Brayden had the most fun in our family!
