We pretty much live in costume at our house. So Halloween isn't really that different, but how exciting when there are so many opportunities to wear different costumes! Each day! Each party!
Evelyn didn't love hers all that much.
Carving pumpkins. The O'Berry boys, all three, REALLY get into pumpkins.
Every once in awhile I remember to have Evelyn to tummy time :) and she hates it every time.
Yep, those are the boys on a walk. In costume.
The ward party.
Ryan's boat won the pumpkin carving contest.
Collin and his Spiderman friend Spencer and Tessa the witch.
Now I'm a policeman!
At the witch's house. Oh how we love her house.

More October 2014 photos
We went as a family to the zoo in October. The boys finally got to ride the train (it has been under construction ever since we have been going), and it was SO exciting! Evelyn slept :)
They had all these really cool Halloween decorations around the zoo, which was new. The boys especially loved the vampires.
Mueler said we could get cotton candy as a treat. WAHOO!
Evelyn started really watching "her mobile friends" as I call them.
The boys kidnapped Evelyn one day.
We raked a lot of leaves.
Collin and his friend Abbie.
One afternoon a big tree across the street got removed. Liam and Evelyn were watching it for quite some time.
Kowabunga jumping in the leaves.
Evelyn LOVED to be outside and watch the leaves come off the trees. She would get so excited seeing the leaves blow in the trees.
Reading books.
Fighting pumpkins.

October 2014 photos
A new years resolution of mine is to keep up on this blog better, even if just for journaling for my kids....so working through October 2014 photos still. Lookat how warm October was :) Yes, Collin went to school in that outfit above. Those rain boots were quite popular for quite some time.
Mueler the Mummy appeared again, but to a lesser degree. We made gooey goblin cake pops. Big hit with the boys.
Ninja anyone?
Evelyn went to her first storytime at the library. Oh she is little here. That as like two months ago. Sigh.
Ninjas come to Shopko sometimes without shoes, but "ninja" shoes if you notice.
Mueler let us walk to the bakery and get a treat. The boys both got massive Halloween cupcakes.
Looking all Halloweeny in orange shirts.
Sleepy baby.
One afternoon yarn was a big tool for building a spider web. Yes, it was a good hour of entertainment.
I can't remember now what this was for exactly, but Collin was pretending to be something of course, and he thought it was so funny.
Collin's pumpkin he drew.

Thomas Nelson/Booksneeze Review Love Without End
This story sounded promising and it was sweet, but something
lacked in the character development and overall feeling for me. I am a romantic
at heart, so I knew that the two main characters would be able to overcome the
challenges of getting together, but when they did, I didn’t feel much. I’m not
sure what this is due to exactly.
I did find the relationship between the main character’s
daughter and the male main character the most endearing. I haven’t read any
other books by this author, so maybe if I had, the book would have appealed to
me.
The thing I liked most about this book was the clean
romantic aspect. I liked how the male character truly believed in the power of
God in his life and so did the female eventually. I appreciated how they
appealed to prayer and scripture and spiritual insight in their relationships
with each other and other people. I think this appealed to me because I have
tried to live my life in the same way.
Overall, it was a good read, but it wasn’t a huge page
turner for me and some of the character development was lacking for me, but the
scenery and horse time was beautiful.
