We also harvested our first ever garden (what was left anyway!). We got a T-O-N of zucchini, onions, lettuce, and tomatoes. We got some delicious bell peppers. Our pumpkins grew like crazy, but never turned orange. Our peas and beans failed miserably. Overall, we were pleased with our results, and it was a lot of fun. Kyle was so happy with his giant cabbage. He carried it around like a baby. He even put it in a stroller, and pushed it around the yard-- a true Cabbage Patch baby.
We had a special FHE prepared by Kyle and Kailani about having a strong family--(like a stick as opposed to a weak family like a bendy wire), and the next week Cameron presented one about the First Vision. I was impressed by the thought and effort they put into their lessons.
We carved Jack-o-lanterns and watched a Harry Potter movie. Kailani insisted on doing her own pumpkin, and did a great job. It was a fun night.
Kyle had a Readers Theatre at school. Parents weren't invited, but he begged his teacher to let me come, (she said I could) then he begged me to come. I am glad he wanted me there, and that I could go. He was the narrator, and the sound effects guy. He did great.
Lastly, was Halloween. After much debate (and mind-changing), Cameron decided to be a Jedi...
Kyle was a sorcerer...
Kailani was a vampiress...
Karen was an adorable fairy...
And Creed was a little Jack-O-Lantern...
It was a busy, but wonderful month.

Wow! You have been busy! Congrats on the garden, it is always fun when you see something actually grow. I love all the Halloween costumes - especially Creed's chubby pumpkin!
