BYU game and Pre-Halloween Festivities

I am so far behind at blogging at this point I just need to do it. These pictures are a little out of order. Since we purchased 4 BYU season tickets this year I have had quite a few opportunities to attend BYU games. I was actually not planning on going to this game on Oct. 24th - TCU - but Byron told me it was going to be one of the biggest games of the season. Luckily Camille was nice enough to let me go instead and she was fine with the prospect of attending the Utah game in November since I switched her games.

Upon arriving at the pre-game, the weather was pretty bitter cold. The wind started to pick up and it became awful. We were lucky enough that this only lasted maybe 30 minutes then the wind subsided. We were able to see Lavell Edwards being interviewed on ESPN at the pre-game. It was cool to see him up so close.
Tanner and Carter were able to go with Byron & I. Carter had been wanting to get a cougar tail (12 inch donut) for as long as he heard his brothers and sister would be able to buy them at the games. So the first line of business was getting one for the boys to share. Here the boys are next to the field watching BYU players warm up.
Tanner & Carter enjoying their donut - it is massive!!!
Yum!
It started sprinkling during the game, so the rain gear was pulled out - we only had 2 rain ponchos, so Tanner & Carter got a garbage bag - Carter was so cute in his that I couldn't resist a picture.
Byron & I enjoying the game.
Tanner & Cooper had fun sitting next to each other.
Cooper & Jeff together.
We had a great time at the game even though BYU lost.

Byron was gone to LA for business the few days leading to Halloween. We had fun making carmel apples and using some extra chocolate to cover marshmallows. As you can see from the pictures - all were having a great time. Johnathan, Tanner, Carter, Bradley & Parker
Parker licking the yummy carmel spoon.
Johnathan was lucky enough to get the remaining chocolate. Doesn't his smile tell it all:).
Tanner and his messy face - it makes me laugh!
Bradley with Carter in the back.
Parker with his carmel apple.
In Bears, we made paper mache masks. Tyler Atwood and Johnathan were the only 2 that brought theirs to display at Pack Meeting. They both did a great job. Tyler made a really adorable pig and Johnathan made an Egyptian. It is so fun being with this age group - I love being a Bear Den Leader.
One morning in October I woke up to this beautiful sky - it was breathtaking.
Here we are back to carmel apple making. There are pictures that Camille took with her camera. It is fun to have 2 cameras around the house to get different perspectives and lots of pictures.

Here are the yummy carmel apples before the kids starting covering them with chocolate.
Johnathan dipping marshmallows in chocolate - definitely a family favorite when chocolate is involved.
Camille has a foods class at school - here is a really cool finger she made out of edible peanut butter mixture - looks pretty creapy if I do say so:).
Here are Bradley & I during the day at the end of October. We were experiencing our first snowfall of the year - which pretty much amounted to a skiff - but Bradley was looking out our back window watching it for so long. We finally decided to take some pictures and this one below is what we took.

I love this guy!!!
