Uncle D!
My younger brother, David (DP) got his mission call on October 29th... He'll be serving in the Everett Washington mission. And yes, I've already checked & we believe that mission includes the famed town of Forks, for all you Twilight lovers!;) DP rolled his eyes at me when I told him that... Anyway, I have started a mission blog for him with all the details, incase you didn't already know... elderpedersen.blogspot.com... Check it out when you get a moment!:)
1st REAL Halloween!
For Drake's 1st halloween, we dressed up but didn't go out. Last year, Jax's 1st halloween, we were REALLY lame (and sick, I think), so we didn't even dress up. Because of those reasons, those 2 years didn't count ssince this year was our first year dressing up AND going trick-or-treating! We actually just did our ward trunk-or-treat which was so fun & a good place to start for the babies. Drake didn't understand the concept at first that all he had to say was those magic words & he got candy. The 2nd person we went to gave him some candy & he tried to give some back to them:) My giving little boy... But he got the hang of it about 2 cars later. And... This being our first "real" halloween, I didn't know to take the pics BEFORE going out... Here's the tired boys, candy faces & all:)

This year, we spent it with the Pedersen's:) Good food, good fun... The usual! My Grandma Pat came down for the holiday & helped with the cooking. Thanks to her & my fabulous Mama, we had quite the feast!
We had the turkey cooked under ground this year..... BEST TURKEY EVER!!!!!! No lie... I helped contribute to the feast with some homemade rolls. I got the recipe from my mother-in-law, whose rolls are to DIE for! I didn't do too bad considering it was my first attempt- they were all gone by the next day, so I guess that means they were alright, right? But still... did not even come close to Kathy's!!! Gimme a few years of making & I might get it down.
Again, I wasn't thinking & busted out my camera AFTER everyone was all turkey'd out & on our way home! Haha But I sure do love these guys...

No Shave November!
Haha I just HAD to put this in & since Shane never really looks at the blog, I probably won't get in trouble for it either:) Shane got talked into doing No Shave November by my brothers & this is the result!
Of course, he had to shave it a little bit for work. But this was Day 30 & it started getting "mountain man" bushy... Happily, it was mutual agreement that it needed to go. Impressive just the same.. Way to go, Hun:) Hahaha
