Halloween 2008
Halloween this year was great! Even the weather was unusually nice. This year the kids did a lot of trick or treating, along with going over to their cousins (RJ & Jamie) house for a little party. The week before Halloween we even managed to make it over to the famous Grandma Houghton party just in time for the costume parade.

Rifle Hunt
As you can see from this picture, we had a great group of hunters and soon to be hunters for this years Rifle Deer Hunt. We all enjoyed each others company and had fun eating, shooting BB guns, riding horses, playing catch, telling stories around the campfire and of course hunting for the big one. Conner and I went hunting with the Ryan Johnson Family, the Jeff Higginson Family, the Ryan Blanchard Family, The Brian Hughes Family, & The Nick Slye Family.
Conner really did good on the rifle hunt this year. He got up really at around 4 am and rode horses with dad, and even hiked around and help spot many the deer. It won't be long before he really is carrying his own rifle.

Pumpkin Patch
It's becoming a fun little tradition to go over to the Pumpkin Patch over at the "Red Barn" and South Ridge Farms in Santaquin. This year we went over for family night with Grandma & Grandpa Houghton, Shelly & Rod, and Todd & Nicole. The kids had fun on the hay ride and picking out their own special pumpkins. Grandpa even treated everyone to ice cream afterwards. What a fun family night!

Conner's Soccer
Conner has had an absolute blast playing soccer this year. His team happened to win every game this year, and when compared to last year's team that lost every game, it was quite the turn around. Conner was the star player scoring at least 5 or 6 goals per game. He does however need to learn a bit of humility since he would shout out how many goals he scored each time, and then remind the other team of what the score was. He is a sweet boy and didn't mean it how it sounds, but we did need to remind him not to rub it in.
