Waiting for trick or treaters

It started out really fun! Lots of kids came including a lot of Cattys students. Eventually it froze!

Manchester Monarchs


Chuck a Puck at Manchester's LA Kings affiliate - if you can't tell they are throwing small foam discs onto the ice. The objective was to have your puck (detailed with a serial #) land in a box. If it lands in the box you get a bunch of money.

I (Scott) thought that they were real pucks, and immediately was concerned we were going to die. Until a nice arena man mentioned that they were not in fact hard rubber. Phewfs!

Our new digs

On the left side is a set of covered stairs that leads up to our 3rd floor apartment. Our office window is the highest one on the right side of the apartment

There are 2 doors in the middle by the lamp post - ours is on the left!

trick or treat




This is one of Catty's most wonderful friends at Hillside school - Catty's dressed as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz (she's wearing red ruby slippers!), and Terry is the Glenda the Good Witch
the next 3 pictures are when we went to a Halloween party for some of Catty's friends from work in a ooooold old barn




Me and Catty with Josh (my boss) and his wife

Catty and I decided to be 80's rockers - we told people we were "Guitar Heroes".

Bishop with the spiked red hair

Bro Lahr wearing the dress and wig - this pic is mostly for future embarassment (Scott's his home teacher)

Bro Harris as Abraham Lincoln

Catty at her donut on a string booth. The Primary was in charge of the event and each counselor, or really whoever wanted to volunteer could do something.

A sad day for one of our trees

Poor trees were hanging over our electrical lines and had to go.

Fall Festivities

Catty and I visited a local orchard today where we could pick pumpkins and apples. I don't think I've ever been able to go and physically pull the pumpkin out of the ground and have to tear the stump(no idea if this is what its called). Catty was great at knocking apples out of trees like a Cy Young winner while I either collected them from the ground or climbed a tree to get the best one.

They did suggest against climbing trees and I understood why when I was hanging by three fingers fifteen feet from the ground.

Last thing to note was how fantastic the cider and donuts were. Ridiculous. It's been awhile since I've had cider...Julie lady used to get it all the time. We left with a half gallon, 8 donuts and 2 18 pound pumpkins.

Altogether we love fall here. Pumpkin carving next!

Scott has such great aim!




In about 10 seconds, he almost breaks his arm.
Look at those incredible colors behind us!
