Oct 31 - Halloween - very scary

We had a great time tonight visiting many houses. Micah and I carved these over the past few days (most of them tonight). Then we went out with some friends. Tyler stayed home to hand out candy (with mom) and Mariah went to work (BYU-Idaho had a skating party).

This is also a great night to teach the children about the principle of tithing. And remember to always give the "best 10%" to father.

Oct 30 - Christmas Lights?

Ok. So I didn't take down my lights last year, so yesterday I pulled them out of the gutter and guess what.... They Worked! I am well on my way for getting the house ready for Christmas.

Oct 29 - Ward Trunk or Treat Party

I think we had 320+ people at our party this year. It is by far the biggest ward party of the year. We have people how never come to church except for this party. It is quite the show. We fill the gym and another big room and have to ask people to stand after we eat.

Oct 28 - Cardinals Win!

Another world title win for the Cardinals. Love it when the national league wins.

Oct 27 - Halloween Concert

Oct 24 - Bogey and Micah

Our neighbors had to put down their dog last weekend. It will be a sad day when we have to do that. It will be a hard lesson to learn. One that I think is important, but still very hard It is part of life.

Wednesday is turning into one of my favorite days. This is the day when new comic books come out. Got these two comics today. I am also starting to feel like Norm on Cheers. When I walk into the store James (manager of the store) says "Scott". Makes me feel great!

I cooked dinner again. Enough said.

Today, after much practice, the stake is doing the road show. YEA!

Also Mariah got a superior rating on a high school writing contest. This was a big deal to Mariah so make sure you give her your congratulations.

Oct 14 - Church for sale?

This is something you don't see very often. A LDS church (in fact the church we go to) for sale. Not only is it for sale, but is on "sale by owner". I was under the impression our churches are owned by the Savior. Notice the phone number......anyone want to phone The Lord?

Oct 13 - Won Dinner for Two

I won dinner for to at Jackers! It is one of the nicer places to eat on town. They picked my name out of the hat. I had to do a safety observation at work. I found out that I have a lot of friends at work as everyone wanted me to take them.

Oct 12 - Waiting on a Train

This happens a lot when I go home from work. Always waiting on a train. I work near a train yard and they are always getting their trains ready for long haul traveling. Does not make for much fun.

Wow - more roadshow practice.
