David's Nigeria trip - November 2016

Welcome to Nigeria!
 David enjoyed the Malta Guinness drink.
 Tennis court at the hotel:
 
 Going to church was the highlight of the trip:

 The ward choir was amazing:
 After church, it was like a party.
 
 
 Such wonderful people.

 Since David was a visitor, he was given a meal!
 
On the way home, David had a layover in the Charles de Gaulle airport.
 
 He bought us home some rather fresh croissants, straight from Paris!  So glad you are home, sweetie!

November 2016

November was pretty low key.  Hanging out at the playground:
 
 
 This sweetie is ready for a trip to Peru!
 My snuggle bunny:
 It takes a lot of talent to make a snowman on a day like this:
 Here's Mary's a few days later:
 Chillin':
 Mary's class was on the news:
 Sarah's class went to the planetarium (Sarah is middle right):

October 2016

Mary's school choir was invited to perform at a district event:
They have been working hard, and it really shows!
 We said goodbye to the white van this month.  We brought four of our babies home in that van.
 Anna had a Kangaroo Zoo birthday party:
 
 
 
 She chose to get her ears pierced this year.  You are growing up so quickly, beautiful Anna!  We are so grateful for you.
 I went with the girls to an Activity Days painting party!
Sarah's class went to the pumpkin patch:
Anna's class went to the Utah State Capitol Building:
 
 Look at these two!  I'm so grateful kindergarten is only half a day.
 At the Jazz game:
Sarah learned to ride with no training wheels!
 
  Family Halloween party:
Ward Halloween party:
 
 Waiting for the school Halloween parade to start (Louison, one of the French aides, is in the dinosaur costume):
 Tiki had a great seat for the parade:

 Here they come!

 
 
 
 We went trick-or-treating with Sister Jordan and had a lovely visit with her:
 And trick-or-treating with Dad.  Happy Halloween!
