Happy Halloween!

Ryan's Halloween

Ryan was a vampire for Halloween. When I was pregnant with Ry, I actually had the urge to name him "Dracula". I really liked the sound of little-Drac-Hadfield. Nobody else approved, but now that I see him dressed this way I think they were all wrong. He would have made a wonderful "Drac".
Ryan enjoyed a parade and party at school with his class mates.
He loved trick-or-treating this year more than ever! He earned 10 lbs of candy.
Dada did the hair and makeup. Great job, Dada. You're awesome!


Markie was the cutest teenage-mutant-ninja-turtle! He practiced his ninja moves on unsuspecting guests at the school parade.

Sarah's Halloween

Sarah dressed as a fairy during the week leading up to Halloween. On Halloween she went trick-or-treating as a spider. She had so much fun and did a really good job earning candy. Everyone commented on the cute spider at the door. As she reached for the candy she was happily rewarded with goodies which she insisted on eating right away... then she would offer her pumpkin-bucket to collect a second treat. She is putting her cuteness to good use.

Now that Ry can ride without training wheels, he can go anywhere with his Dada and Grandpa.

Autumn at the Cabin

This fall was beautiful in Lamb's Canyon.



Sarah got a hold of Grandpa's reading glasses. She and Grandpa have so much fun together.

Snowbird 2010

We went with Jeremy's parents to Snowbird this year. It was a delightful vacation with good company, comfortable temperatures and lots of fun. Markie would say otherwise and seems to hate me to this day for taking him along, but we'll deal with that in due time.

Ryan's Birthday Party

This kid knows how to have fun. Ry invited all of his cousins and friends to come and play in his back yard for his birthday. There were children everywhere laughing and playing in the sunshine. I hope everyone enjoyed their time.
