| Thula's is the monster and I made the kitty |
 |
| Lela took a little nap in the warm autumn sun. |
 |
| Dinner in a pumpkin! Note: never eat a white pumpkin-they are only for decorating I learned. |
 |
| Trick-o-treat! |
 |
| The goodies-Lela is too busy digging in to bother with the camera |
 |
| Hermione, Professor Dumbledore, and a salem witch! Our first Halloween in Louisville was a lot of fun. The neighborhood gets really into it and there were plenty of kids roaming about. |
 |
| Happy Halloween from Hermine Granger and Miss Kentucky Pioneer! (Grandma Bea made Thula's Gryffindor cape) |
 |
| I pinned the Gryffindor emblem on the back of the cape from off the good ol' internet. |
 |
| Lela giving me her scary sugar face |
 |
| Louisville 4th Ward kids |
 |
| Lela waiting so patiently with her little balloon while Thula sticks her hands in something icky and scarrrry. |
 |
| The next morning we found frost (at least we aren't in CT where they are expecting a foot of snow already!) |
 |
| Our new tent! |
 |
| Just me and my girls! Believe it or not these are the clothes we went to sleep in and we still froze (35 degree night) |
 |
| Lela woke up about midnight crying that she was cold. I brought her up onto the air mattress with me and she spent the rest of the night kicking off the blankets. |
 |
| My little helper |
 |
| My little poser |
 |
| Rolling in the mud |
 |
| Thula managed to shirk most of the work and cozied up to the fire with some hot chocolate. |
 |
| Stuart working like a dog. Our stake did a service project at O'Bannon State Park in Corydon, Indiana. The youth of the stake frequenlty use this park. We cleared a lot of brush! It was a tiring day, but we had fun. |
 |
| Stuart in his "mormon helping hands" shirt. So cute! Thula in her 'number1' shirt. |
 |
| I chaperoned the kids at the nature center. We learned how to finger weave (Thula said that was her most favorite thing about the camping trip) and leaf painted. We also went on a nature hike, learned about blacksmiths, visited an 1850's cabin and pet some very friendly cows. |
 |
| Lela loves animals and we hung out with the cows. He kept licking my hands. I never new cows had such rough tongues! |
 |
| Taking a walk with gran |
 |
| Hiking in Waverly Park |
 |
| Hiking at Bernheim State Park-I don't know how Beatrice carried that thing on her back. I almost died after 20 minutes |
 |
| Stuart had this shirt made for Thula. It has his soccer logo on the front. It is her new favorite shirt. |
