Christmas Tree

This year we decided to cut down our own tree at a lot just down the road from us. It was fun and Aurora got a baby tree to take home. Here are some pictures from that night.

Jay and Aurora when we first got there.

Aurora's Solo

Aurora is singing a solo in the primary program next Sunday. I took a video of her part while they were practicing in the primary room today.

Halloween

Aurora went trick or treating with her cousin Luke. She got a ton of candy.

Carving Pumpkins and decorating cookies

Last Monday we carved pumpkins and decorated Halloween cookies for Family Home Evening. Aurora really hated cleaning the "guts" out of her pumpkin. She picked a white one this year. I let her draw the face and then I carved it out for her.

Halloween at the Wild Animal Park

On the 24th we went to the Wild Animal Park for their Halloween thing. It was OK. They had a few crafts and some trick or treating and some carnival games. Aurora liked it. Here are a few pictures from it. There was a bridge that led over to the games and they had a "troll" under it that scared Aurora at first, because she did not know he was there.

Yesterday Aurora and I went to the zoo for a little bit. Here are two cute picture I took of her.
This one she was trying to smell the flower.

This is a mother peacock and her three babies that came up to Aurora. All four of them came right un to her.


I let her take the camera and take what ever pictures she wanted to take. Some of them are reall good. It is funny to see what she took pictures of. I put them into a slideshow for anyone who wants to see them.

I could not get the slideshow to post on here so here is the link to it:
