Fall is falling all around....EVEN the Clock fell back!

Chrysanthe'mums' are always beautiful in the fall...

It has been a beautifully warm fall week...
Beautiful weather...
Hope it is a sign of a lot of snow this winter...

Monday was an early out...
Chris brought her girls over for a 'service' project.
 Getting that Virginia Creeper tamed...(Angie)
 Time for the peonies to sleep. (Sierra)
 Reigan and Jayden are planting bulbs...
 Leaves... (Reigan Sierra Jayden and Angie down under)
 Leaves...
 AND...
More leaves...

Halloween is a sure sign of Fall...
I spent the night Tuesday with the Neilsons'.
I am so grateful Larry and Becky haven't thrown out that ol' recliner...

Syd dressed up as the Mad Hatter for school Wednesday...

 Here's to ya!

Once back at home...
I just barely had time to get ready to be spooked!
 Jeremy Nelson and John Campbell Familes...
 Josh Nelson family....
 Ben's family...with Brooke as the other mouse (she is Bryce Campbell family)
Bryce Campbell Family...

I love love love love...
All the little ones who come to 'trick' if we don't treat.
Although Steve met the first group with an empty bowl...
You should have seen the sad faces...
Bad Steve...
That huge bag of Candy was gone by the time the last little ones walked out the door.


There wasn't any school Friday...
Once again Chris brought the girls...
They worked so hard most of the day...
They pruned all my elm bushes back...
 Reigan worked as a weight in the wheel barrow to keep the branches in place...
Although she and the branches slipped off once...
 They all had clippers in all sizes and shapes...



 Ray is quite the worker....
 After they cut back the bushes by the driveway...
They still had these...

 Rays clippers are bigger then she and the plant are...


I left to make some visits...
 When I got back it was all done...

I am so thankful for the family who helps when there is no possible way I can do it.


Our clocks fell back...
One full hour...
For the next four months...
Stan will be a happy camper...
Peace will rein in the Campbell home once again...
If anyone gets rid of Day Light time it will be my husband.


Melissa our new RS President...
Gave a beautiful lesson on...
The Attitude of Gratitude...
WOW!
It was so powerful....
She used a lot of quotes from face book friends...
Her family...
She used Scriptures..
A conference talk...
BUT...
She told the story of her family....
there wasn't a dry eye in the meeting.
We all went away so grateful for our trials...
Thank you Melissa for a new perspective.
 We need strong Christians who can persevere against hardship, 
who can sustain hope through tragedy,
 who can lift others by their example and their compassion, 
and who can consistently overcome temptations. 
We need strong Christians who can make important things happen by their faith
 and who can defend the truth of Jesus Christ against
 moral relativism and militant atheism.”
