It's offical...we're back.

So, for those unaware of the crisis we call life, we've had a lot going on. When push came to shove and something had to give, it was the blog that went. Sorry for those who have been checking and waiting for us to return to normal life.

First, there was Halloween. Here's the field where we picked out our pumpkins...and this is only 1/5 of the pumpkins there. As for costumes, Jackson and Taryn went as...

Then there was Taryn's birthday. She turned 3 on November 15th and really enjoyed her Little Mermaid birthday cake. The highlight of her birthday was getting to choose an animal carcass and "Build a Bear." She chose a fluffy, pink bear that she named Mopo. This is where she's giving Mopo the once over.

We've started our preparations for Christmas and this is the tree we chopped down...it's great!

Our last exciting event coming up....the BYU Bowl Game versus the U of O! This could not be more exciting for us and for those worried about where our allegiance lies, GO COUGARS!! We did tell our friend Ryan that we would cheer for him if he gets to play, but only if it doesn't affect the outcome of the game.
