Mustache Aftermath

After the Halloween Party I took Benson's mustache off and it left a red mark.  It was pretty bad I thought that it might still be there even after sleeping but luckily it was gone by morning so he did not have a mustache for church.  The mustache was awesome, I thought Benson would  have pulled it off within seconds but it stayed on until I took it off after the party.

Church Halloween Party

Our Ward had a Halloween Party.  They had dinner (chili and cornbread), dancing, haunted house, scary tunnel, cake walk, costume parade and also people decorated rooms or doors and passed out candy. We helped decorate the gym for the party so we were there most of the day.  Benson dressed up as a little sailor and Audrey our cute neighbor was a sailor girl so I had to get a picture of them together.  It was a lot of fun, I am glad we went. 

Park

On one fine Saturday we took Benson to the Park to play.  It was his first time in a swing and he loved it.  Lots of the parks around us do not have swings.  The weather was perfect so it was fun to be outside.  Benson is still too little to really enjoy the park he just crawls around looking for things to put in his mouth. 

Zoo

We went to the zoo with Becca and Jackson the other day. It was a quick trip to fill up our long day with an activity since we were without husbands!  The weather was beyond nice and we had a very enjoyable time seeing all the animals. Thanks Becca!

Trouble

Benson is beginning to pull himself up to everything.  It started with the bathtub and now its the coffee table and entertainment center.  Benson is getting so busy he will not hold still at all while I attempt to change his diaper.  The other night I started the bath water then took Benson to the living room to change his diaper and take off his clothes and he bolted as soon as I put him down and army crawled himself back to the bathroom as fast as he could. He is getting way to smart and wants to do everything his way already.

Yeah for Bret

Bret does it again.  He once again received the Basic Science Award!  He works really hard at getting good grades but he is also blessed to be able to comprehend things so quickly.  I am very proud of him and the success he has had throughout his schooling.  You make us proud.  Keep up the good work Bret!  We love you!
