Halloween 2010

We had quite the variety for Halloween this year!!  Ryder told everyone for weeks that he was going to be a ninja for Halloween.  I don't know where he got the idea but there was no changing his mind.  I gave in and bought him the costume that he had begged for.  He looked pretty scary.

Saydee wanted to be a lady bug this year

 Watch out here comes Miss Skylar as "Sharpay Evans"  she played the part perfect!!

 Ridge was not crazy about his costume this year but it did keep him warm on the chilly night of trick or treating.

I think he is mad at me.  Poor little guy!

I can WALK!!

 This picture was taken on October 5, 2010.  Ridge really started to take off walking about this time.  I was trying to get a picture of him and he just kept walking right for me.  He is into everything and so busy.  It was weird how fast he started to walk everywhere, one day he was at my feet and the next day he was at my knees.  He is such a sweet boy!!!

Yay Ridge!!

The Westenskow Family: A Thought: "'As we pass through the trials of life, let us keep an eternal perspective, let us not complain, let us become even more prayerful, let us serve others, and let us forgive one another. As we do this, 'all things [will] work together for good to [us] that love God' (Romans 8:28).'

On Wednesday September 29th the muzzle loader deer hunt began.....Zach went out Tuesday night and camped with his dad. Ryder knew that Friday was his big day, for 2 days all he said "Dad and grandpa are finding a big buck so I can go huntin on Friday and help kill it." When Saydee and Skylar would pray for their dad that he would be safe while hunting, right after the prayer Ryder would inform them "Dad and Grandpa are not huntin, I'm their huntin' buddy, you think they go huntin without their huntin' buddy? They are just looking for a deer." This kid is a hoot. Friday finally came and Ryder was fine to wake up at 4:45AM to go out and hunt.

The boys came home empty handed but they had a good time and there is always next year. I sure hope there are some deer left for this little guy when he is old enough to hunt.

Saydee Turns EIGHT!!

Saydee turned 8 on September 30th! She had a great birthday! She wanted some clothes and some jewelry and she got plenty of both.

When Saydee woke up, her room was decorated with balloons and streamers, and she got to open some presents . She wore her new shirt and earrings to school. When she got home, grandma Liz was waiting for her, to take her shopping. She picked out some jewelry. When she got home from shopping Grandma Sherratt and Grandma Hiskey stopped by. Grandma and Grandpa Sherratt gave Saydee some new scriptures and this cute bag to put them in.

Grandma Hiskey gave Saydee a two dollar bill and a nice card.

Here is the birthday girl all ready for School!! We love you Saydee Bug! Happy Birthday!
