Halloween 2011 Party Slideshow

I was back by our booths during the entire party so I didn't get a chance to mingle and get pictures of everyone. There were tons of really cute costumes all over the place--these are the pics I did manage to get.

Paintball Warriors

Joe got to go with his friend Sam to a paintball tournament called Operation: Paintball Warrior last weekend. It was sponsored by a local radio station and was a fundraiser for the local DAV. They had three military guys and 12 civilians playing on each team. Joe and Sam were on Army Bravo. They won their first round--Joe was left lone-man-standing facing 7-8 enemy Air Force team members but he managed to pull it off! They played several rounds and had a blast. Joe is still suffering battle-shock from the round they went up against a semi-pro team.

...such a nice smile, don't you think? Rufus, I mean.

Skills

Katie is coming along nicely in her supervising skills.

Super-vision

You know those Calvin and Hobbes comic strips where Calvin uses the fake eyes to make it look like he is awake and watching the teacher while he catches a quick nap in class? Works like a charm when you're out supervising the kids' walnut-picking activities too!

Opossumble Task

You know you live in the country when.....
The boys found themselves out in the back yard during the wee hours of the morning cleaning up dead opossum before leaving for seminary and school.
Ah, what a life!

One Harvest Day
