Jr's first Halloween!!

Getting ready to go trick-or-treating!

All ready to go in his cute turtle costume. He was such a trooper and did not even cry once with his hat on. I thought for sure he would try and take it off as soon as I put it on, but he happily kept in on the entire time!


We took Jr. to a couple houses to show him off to some friends. We only visited a few houses and he managed to get a ton of candy! I guess they all could not resist how cute he was in his costume!

We decided to let him try his first piece of candy. What the heck Halloween only comes once a year! He had some licorice and just loved it. At first he was just sucking on it with drool running down his face but before we knew it he had bit a huge piece off! I had to hurry and pull it out of his mouth before he choked on it. I already know he is going to be addicted to candy just like his dad!


Jr. with all his goods after trick-or-treating. To bad he didn't get to enjoy any of that good candy.


We have made it a tradition every year to make caramel apples. This year the baby got to join in on the fun. The entire time he was just trying to grab the sticky apple and put it up to his mouth. What a cute boy he is!

Our little family and Leu. (For those of you who have never met or even heard of Leu he rents our basement room. He is from China and is a research doctor at Josh's school. His wife and child are still in China so we try and include him in some of our activities from time to time. Oh and he makes some awesome chinese food too!)

Our friends Lyndsey and Jeremy.

We had a great Halloween and look forward to many more fun ones to come.

Well it's official, we are moving there in January! We are looking for an apartment to rent until we can sell our house in Utah. Are you guys renting or did you buy a place? I have been looking in Lewisville, Carrolton and Keller. It's pretty overwhelming. Hopefully we will find something nice. If you have any suggestions, let me know! Travis is going to be working for a company called Monitronics. It's a security company. I am getting excited to move. We will really have to get together once we are there.
I can't wait to meet Josh Jr. and have a play date!

Hey Brittany! I have been wanting to give you a call, we would love to go out sometime and even if we met up durig the day that would be fun as well. We are loving it here in Dallas it is a nice place. We will be here just until the middle of Dec., but might come back after the holidays. I think we are pretty close to each other we are in Carrolton and I think it is close to Lewisville, anyways I will get your # from Heather or you can get mine. Thanks for the comment, hopefully we can get together soon.
