Halloween&Voting

Like father like daughter.

Like mother like daughter.

Emily's patience wearing thin with ridiculous parents.

The girl on the right is getting baptized tomorrow.  Her baby was a rabbit.  Me looking really scuzzy again.

Alright, it's time for the Ward Halloween Party!  Emily was pumped.  The camera time was kind of blurry.  Everybody loved my moustache.

Trip to the Smokey Mountains

Pat and Nancy were kind enough to come watch Emily while Ben and I were able to get away to the Smokey Mountains. This is the view from our cabin.  The sun was about to come up.
Another view from the cabin.

This is the Chalahula (did I spell that right Ben?) skyway.  It was a "scenic detour" that took us out of the Smokey Mountains and into No. Carolina.  It was the most amazing road I've ever been on, but unfortunately we got there just as it was getting dark.  The views were amazing and the leaves were in the height of their color change...reds, yellows, and golds.

Hoot 'N Holler

Ben and I went to a "classy" dinner show where Ben was called up out of the audience and got to be totally embarrassed.  "Scaps" is the comedian there and he had the four guys on stage (including Ben) sit on four buckets and then lay each other's heads on their laps and then they removed the buckets.  Make sense?  It was kinda dumb but I felt super bad for Ben because it was already a stretch for him to attend the "Hoot 'n' Holler" dinner show, and then he had to lay his head on that guy's lap with the short shorts ;)  hehehe


Abrams' Falls that we hiked to
The deck on our cabin.  Can you see us rockin' there in 40 years?
