This year for Halloween we tagged behind Layla and her girlfriends. Silas went trick-or-treating with friends on his own. Avery went to a Halloween party. And Kieron wanted to stay home by himself and study Spanish. It’s only a matter of time before Jonathan and I spend our Halloweens at home alone together again.

Layla is enjoying her second season of cheer. As one of four returners on her squad, she gets to be a captain and help lead the warmups, which she loves!

We attended an auction for Mount Si Football and Cheer.

Our friends, the Cormiers, throw an annual themed Halloween party. They go ALL OUT! This year the theme was Disney. We had a fantastic time, as usual!

This year marked Senior Homecoming for Avery. Homecoming is a little different at Mount Si. There is no formal dance, just a casual dance, usually a “pink out”, where everyone wears pink in honor of Breast Cancer awareness following the Friday football game. On Saturday, the kids make plans on their own with dates and/or friends and have a night on the town dressed up. Avery and his girlfriend went to Seattle with a large group. They took pictures, went on the Big Wheel and ate dinner at a fancy restaurant. Then they all headed back to our house for a party! I have to say, Avery has a great group of friends and I’m so glad they wanted to hang out at our place together.




  

Making signs with Dalton

In early October the Boy Scouts got a really cool opportunity to tour a Coast Guard Ice Cutter. They all enjoyed learning about the vessel and the work the Coast Guard does on it.
