Ward Halloween and Chili Cookoff Party

The family had a great time at the annual Ward Halloween and Chili cook off party. Once again, the Rusnell family took home the "best chili" award. Tyler has now won the contest for best chili two years running. The other pictures are from friends in the ward. A great time was had by all.

A beautiful time of year

This is an incredible time of year. The colors are amazing all evidence of our Creator. This picture was taken next to our local ward building. The contrast between the red and green is amazing. I just happened to have my camera with me and took this photo.

10/10/2009 Black Forest Farms

Well we made our annual trek out to Black Forest Farms where we have gone for the last three years. The kids have a great time and and if it weren't for mom and dad they would have stayed there all night. The kids have such a blast riding the tractor and going out into the fields to find their very own pumpkin. It usually takes Lauren or Tyler the longest. Lauren usually starts with the cutest or smallest, but then once she sees the boys grabbing a big one she then changes her mind. Dad gets to be the lucky one that cares them.

The kids took advantage of nearly every activity. They played in a big box of corn, went down the slides that were built on large bales of stray, rode the seesaw, played on the old tires that were buried partly in the ground (the boys liked this the most) and just about everything else. Mom and dad had a blast watching them enjoy themselves.

Lauren Dance at Davis High School

Lauren and her friend Abbey decided to join a local dance group that was preparing to dance during half time at the local high school You can tell by looking at the video, but Lauren is somewhere in the group of little girls dancing her heart out. We told her she did a wonderful job, but in actuality we couldn't see her. But we are confident she did a great job.
