We had a fun Halloween this year. It was nice because Taylor didn't have to work so he could come trick or treating with us. Caden gets to spend a lot of time with some of his cousins because they live so close, so we all went trick-or-treating together. We just hit the houses around the neighborhood that Taylor went to as a kid and it was really fun. Caden came home with a bucket full of candy so he wasn't complaining either.
This is Tyson giving us his best growl. We thought it appropriate to dress him up as a tiger as we have called him the "tyger" since he was born.
Caden decided to go as an elephant this year. We found a costume for him at Costco which turned out to be a little small. He took it all in stride and was more than happy to don the grey socks. It ended up being really cute with his big fat elephant suit and then two skinny little legs holding it up. It drew more than one smile as we would run into people we knew. Caden did really good with the trick or treating this year. He walked the whole time and never complained about being too tired. He just kept saying "one more house" and never wanted to stop. In fact the only complaint he had the entire time was right close to the end he grabbed my hand and asked me to carry him. When I asked why he just looked up and as innocent as could be said, "because my wedgie is starting to hurt." I figured that was a valid excuse :-)
Taylor's birthday was the 1st of October and one of the activities he wanted to do was bake a cake as a family activity. We had so much fun. We asked Caden what kind of cake we should make and he decided he wanted a Mario cake. So we went to work. It took us hours to make, cut, fit together, and frost, but the finished product was worth it. It turned out really well and we were really happy with it, so we thought we would post a picture here.

Taylor's mom got her mission call!! For those of you who didn't know, Taylor's mom has been preparing for a mission and has waited a while for the call to finally come. Well it is here and she is proud to announce that she will be serving a full-time mission at the family history center in Salt Lake City. She is so excited, and we are excited for her. Thanks Virginia for being such a great example for our kids!!!

Such a cute family, and I love that your sin wanted to make a cake with you for his birthday! I hope he will be that way always.
