Kids say the darndest things! (Disclaimer: reader discretion is advised)

So Grandma Florence sent Desiree a new book the other day called Yummy Yucky. It has something yummy to eat pictured on one page followed by something that sounds similar but is yucky to eat. You're looking at the end of the book which shows more yummy and yucky things. Tallon was reading them and he said:

"Pizza is yummy, banana is yummy, milk is yummy, toast is yummy," then he looked at the peach but he wasn't sure what it was so after a few seconds with a thoughtful look on his face he said matter of factly, "Desiree's Bum is yummy." Needless to say we got a good laugh out of it.

Trunk-Or-Treat

I am almost ashamed to post because it has been so long. We had a fun trunk or treat last night with the ward and I thought I would put up a few pictures. It was a beautiful chilly crisp fall night and everyone had a great time. (This is not a common thing at our ward activities) We really are going to miss a lot of things about St. Louis like the couple of weeks of a gorgeous fall. The leaves are so beautiful right now and the weather is great. It is nice to wear a jacket (not a winter coat).

We had a little scare with Eleanor's makeup. After I put it on her I washed my hands and and it left them stained red. I thought for sure she was going to go to church this morning with a very red face but luckily it all washed off just fine.
Mom made the great Jedi costumes for the boys. They were so excited and told everyone that Grandma made these for us and she did it all in one day. They are so impressed. I forgot to bring Darren's costume and Alan had to go chaperone the stake dance so I was there by myself. I didn't get any pictures of him. Here is a cute one of him from September. He is up on his hands and knees. He rocks back and forth and then throws his body forward. He can get himself anywhere he wants to go. We are having to really baby proof and keep the basement door closed.

We only have 19 more days left. There is a ton to do but I am on schedule for packing and feeling rather good about moving. Alan is giddy. He walks around with a permanent grin on his face. He is looking good these days. He has lost 30 pounds doing Atkins again. He needs to get to his ideal weight for insurance purposes and he is well on his way. For those who don't know we are planning on being in Arizona Monday November 19th. We are going to be moving in with my parents for a few months while we save up for a down payment and find a house to buy. We love and miss all of you. See you soon!
