I can not wait for Halloween. We have been cooking up costumes for quite some time, and it has been a lot of fun. Just thought I would give a little glimpse of Gus's costume. He loves Popeye, and can't wait to show off his big muscles on Halloween!

I just have one problem. He keeps singing the Popeye song, and the only version he knows goes as follows:
I'm popeye the sailor man,
I live in a garbage can,
I never go swimmin with bare naked women,
I'm popeye the sailor man.

I keep trying to get him to say bull legged women, but now he just says bull-naked women. Thanks to his uncle Simon for teaching him this. I've been trying to make up another one, but my creativity seems to be having a drought. If anyone can think of one, let me know.

A little of this and a little of that!

Cash had pink-eye. I think he looks like the monster guy on the goonies "Hey you guys!"

So I think Max might need braces

I don't know what these boys would do with out each other.

Back in the saddle again. We went horse back riding with some cute girls from our ward. It was quite a treat!

Gus was a natural!

Boys will be boys. This was pretty much how ever day went this summer. You should have seen the bath water!

My sweet angel baby! The only one that I don't ever have to send to time-out.

Just thought this was sweet

Just a little something we cooked up for the family talent show!

Freak!

Goodbye house!

So, we are actually selling our house. I thought this day would never come, and now that it is here. I don't know whether to be excited or devastated. I never planned on staying here longer than a few months, and I never planned on making any friends, but now that we have lived here over 2 years, I don't know if I can tear myself away from mountainaire. I love being in the woods in less than five minutes (on foot). I love the tree huggers that live all around me. I love the trees. I love all my book club friends, and running partners. Life just seems a lot more slow paced. Anyway, I am excited to figure out where we will live in less than a month. I really have no idea, but it will be fun to live in some little dumpy place with cheap rent for a while. It will be nice not to have the responsibility of owning a house. It has been a good little house, and I hope the new family loves it as much as we have. Things have not worked out the way we planned, but the Lord has blessed us in so many ways. Isn't it amazing how he knows us better than we know ourselves. Good times.
