A birthday fieldtrip with the Silotti's

 


The Silotti's had a membership to SeaQuest.  She had asked us to come with them for weeks.  Since we both had birthday's in October, we made the trek up and enjoyed our visit.  We had close encounters with several animals as the photos attest.





Halloween Fun
















We had a weekend Halloween Party with the college aged kids that was so fun!  We also celebrated Cody's birthday.  Hannah Rasmussen, Marv and Kathleen's granddaughter joined us as well.
We had a treasure hunt that required 4-wheelers that was exciting.






We did some pumpkin carving that evening.  Amy's owl pumpkin was the undisputed winner, although we had some amazing competition.  Hyrum didn't seem to mind getting in the Halloween spirit by sitting in the gooey, slimy pumpkin guts.

Misc. from October

 Random photos from October.

2020 was a BIG election year. This is Burgess Owens with Cody Adams and his wife.  Cody was our County Republican chairman.  Burgess was running against Ben McAdams and won!                                                       


Provo Canyon fire was one of many fires in Utah this year.

Our official mission call. 









  

 We rode the 4-wheelers over Levan Canyon into Wales one afternoon.  It was a beautiful ride.

Oct. 12, Oct 15, Oct. 17, Oct. 20:  Darrel and I worked at Scott and Janna’s doing all we could to get things in better shape for them to move in. We met a neighbor or two and found the neighborhood lovely.

Oct. 23: Darrel had a heart ultra-sound today and found all well.

Oct. 27: My kind, wonderful Aunt Beth passed-away today at a facility in Springville.  Ann and Nancy were with her.  She was a remarkable woman who made a difference in many lives.

Oct. 30: Our tank less water heater went out and our college grandchildren showed up for the Halloween weekend.  We put a regular one back in as getting a tank-less heater would take too long to arrive.

Oct. 31:  We had a wonderful Halloween Party with our college aged grandchildren.  We had a mystery dinner, a four-wheeler treasure hunt, games, pumpkin carving and a movie.
