Halloween

Natha has officially hit that age where Halloween is not longer much fun. He's not going trick or treating so he'll be our official hand out candy greeter.

This year we tried carving a craft pumpking. Normal pumpkins rot in about 3 days down here so this let us get more time out of the pumpkin for about the same price.

More football photos.

And on the field. Number 27 for the Cope Cougars. Nathan Otis. Ahhhh!!!!

Marmaduke

We are NOT BYU fans. We are USU alumni and that's where our hearts lie. So when BYU beat USU we were crushed. This giant dog w/accompanying hat made an appearance at our front door early Saturday morning. Since Chris was up at 430 and I was up by 530 it wasn't exactly what you want to see when you just wake up in the morning.

No one has fessed up to it yet BUT...we have a few ideas of who it belongs too.

Duck?

Chris and Nate got this duck last season. It took 10 months and $250 for the taxidermist to get this thing stuffed. Don't worry, it's going to work with Chris.

Revel 15K Run

Finally. A beautiful day for a run. This was a great warm-up race for the 1/2 marathon in 7 weeks.
