Torn back muscles and Halloween!

On Monday, Luke was helping move a HUGE snowblower (Probably close to 500lbs) and tweaked his back.  He couldn't move, walk, etc.  When he called me to get over to Brian and Jenny's he was lying on his back not moving.  He laid on his back not moving and it took us a while to get him to our car.  We got him to the chiropractors office and we were told he had torn his lower back muscles.  He put a bunch of rocktape on him, a moved his back in a way that the muscle could work to remember..to work.

Tuesday night was Halloween and Luke was on the couch while I hung out with the kiddos for 3 hours.  They got a ton of candy, but by the end Rosie was.done.  She had fallen probably 5 times, but that last time she busted her gumball machine.  (Spencer: Gangster, Mac: Robber (cat burglar), Rosie: Gumball Machine.  No pictures of Livi, she was Minnie Mouse)

Idaho Falls Fun

On Saturday, our niece had a baby shower, so we spent the night and Terry and Iris'.  We always have a good time with them and Saturday night did not disappoint.  Jer and Jenn and kids joined us as well.


We went to New Sweden Corn Maze.  We went on the Hay Ride about 5 times.  After 8 p.m. it was "Haunted" and we just had a great time together.  I especially loved the Olaf Hot Cocoa (Had ice cream in it under the whipped cream, so the whipped cream wouldn't sink.)

Our Pumpkins

We are not really into carving pumpkins.  I posted something on FB a few years back asking if any other parents were like us...I was happy to see that there were quite a few other kindred spirits.

This year we figured the kids could do the majority of their carving and so we brought home 6 pumpkins.  They turned out awesome!

This is similar to the one Livi did.  We spray painted it silver and she drew the eye on it.  Pretty cute.  

Melt my heart

Seeing things like this melts my heart.  My Mac Attack loves reading to his sister!
