Our Last Guy Fawks Celebration

We've been really lucky in that we live in a great neighborhood. every year thet throw a huge neighborhood party to celebrate Guy Fawks day. Most the families on the Patch are military and special forces....so the firework show is amazing!  This was also Nick's first experience with fireworks and he was a fan. He wasn't a fan of the smoke though!  We even had the sister missionaries join us for a bit!

Neighbors

Our sweet neighbor,  Brian,  is 93 and used to fly planes for the British Royal Airforce. He and Zack have such a cute relationship...and Zack regularly goes over to hang out with him. He normally comes home with some kind of sweet or trinket. The last few times Brian has given him airplane pins. Zack now proudly wears them every Sunday. I love it.

Joy's of Halloween Costumes

I saw a video on facebook with this amazing costume and knew Christopher would have so much fun with it....so I ordered it. It was mid-October and the delivery date said Nov 2-12....but I wasn't worried. Things here in the UK are only a day or two away.  Whelp, turns out they were right and I had actually ordered it from China. So Chris was a zombie instead (which perfectly matched the massive headache he had Halloween night).  Happily this costume finally arrived....and we have been having so much fun running around the house being abducted!

Fall in Salisbury

I was a week late taking pictures...but it's still beautiful. 

Zack FINALLY loses this tooth!

This front tooth has been barely hanging on for weeks. Poor zack hasnt wanted to eat certain things because it hurt this tooth. He wouldn't let anyone pull it out though!  Finally today it came out during football practice. I couldn't be more thrilled!

Meet Nick's bear.... England!

My grandparents (Ahma and Ahba) started a tradition of giving all of us a build a bear with a little voice memo just for us. Nick just got his in the mail and it is the cutest thing ever!  Ahma recorded the sweetest message (that my kids keep playing over and over) and dressed him in a cute BYU outfit. They name the bears too. Meet "England"!!
