Todd's Tatler

Saturday evening was our ward's trunk or treat and talent show. Caleb was constantly running due to the excitement of being Peter Pan AND surrounded by lots of other kids dressed up.

My camera wasn't fast enough to capture him

in motion, but my friend's was!

Caleb wasn't sure what to think of Moreno

(one of the DeAlba's ferrets)

Who knew Daddy would willing dress as Mickey Mouse? And all

because he randomly picked up some mouse ears from work a few weeks ago.

Friday evening was Todd's work party! We had a good bit of fun, but poor Todd's arms were worn out in the end (Caleb wanted to be held most of the time). Here are the photos of entertainment while we waited in the LONG and slow moving line to get into the buildings...

some sort of Python

One of my favorite FHE activities is carving our pumpkins!

Dad and Caleb planning their design

But when it was time for carving, he resorted to eating the

chocolate pumpkin pie brought over by my cousin

Caleb still gets excited every time we drive past the BYU football stadium, so Todd finally bought some tickets for us to attend a game. It was a great first half, and then Caleb became a little bored. Many people (not TRUE fans) started leaving the game during the third quarter, which resulted in lots of empty space around us. Being the outgoing little individual that he is, Caleb took the space as an opportunity to wander around and make new friends. One such friend, who couldn't have been more than 8 or 9 years old, was flattered that Caleb was copying his every move. So he started experimenting with, "GO COUGARS!" Caleb echoed him. Then he decided to cheer for the other team too, "GO INDIANS!" His dad corrected him with "Idaho!" But it was too late. Caleb, not understanding what was pronounced, yelled, "GO IDIOTS!" Oops.

Daddy became the hero of the day when he spotted Cosmo signing autographs after the game

Caleb was star struck while we waited in line to meet Cosmo. He wasn't so sure about being RIGHT next him though...

We're getting ready for Halloween around here! We made our second annual trip to The Big Red barn for our hay rides, mini maze, and of course, pumpkin selection.

Like father...

...like son.

My brother stayed with us for a little over a day before going into the MTC back in August. Even though it was a short visit, "Uco Chwis" made a big impression on Caleb because whenever we mention the MTC, Caleb asks if we're going to see him!

My sister flew out with him and stayed a few weeks before we drove her up to BYU-I. Caleb enjoyed having his aunt to entertain him. They had regular dance parties...

We took Caleb to the parade again this year!

Once again, Caleb enjoyed the swing kids and folk dancers.
