In honor of the World Series starting this week we had to get a picture of our family by the "Let's Go Royals" sign on the edge of our neighborhood.

My sister Melanie is a dietitian. She writes a nutrition blog with a good friend and recently posted a lightened up version of her mother-in-law's
Chicken Tikki Masala recipe. I've never been a very adventurous eater, but it sounded good so I decided to give it a try. Anthony and I really liked it! Will ate a few bites (and drank multiple cups of water because it was a little spicy), but Lauren chose to abstain. We brought our high chair up from the basement so Elliott can join us at meals.

I enjoy my mornings with Elliott. The only problem with this is he's typically so pleasant I just want to snuggle with him and it is my only time to run errands with just one kid.

We took one last trip to the Farmstead Wednesday afternoon. For the first time we stopped and visited the Blacksmith Shop. It was very interesting!

Will and I had a fun time reading together during quiet time Thursday afternoon. It's amazing how much he has improved in just the past month. Thursdays are his library days at school and he always comes home with a new book. He really loves the Elephant and Piggie books by Mo Willems. I love seeing his sense of humor and what he thinks is "hilarious."

Friday night was our ward's "Fall Festival." The youth put on a carnival in the gym and due to rain we handed out candy in the hallways. The kids had fun running around with their buddies. We all dressed up--I am a witch, Anthony is Frankenstein, Elliott is a dwarf, Lauren is Snow White and Will is a knight. Anthony's costume created a bit of confusion because it was so bare bones. We'll have to kick it up a notch next year.

The kids went trick or treating around the neighborhood with one of Will's classmates and his little sister. It is fun having friends live so close. The kids got more than enough candy. The boys dashed from house to house together while the girls stayed closer to their parents.

Cute Halloween pics! Noah loves those books, too. I had never heard of them before he was in pre-k.
I love how tiny Elliott is in the high chair. You guys look great in your costumes!
I'm so glad you liked the Tikka Masala! Thanks for sharing the recipe! :)
Elliott is so adorable! I don't blame you for wanting to snuggle with him instead of run errands. I love that kid!
