here's our halloween pics...finally! we had our ward trunk-or-treat and we also went to the parkers for a party and trick-or-treating.
dallin was diego (yes, he was diego last year too - i wasn't going to argue with him!)
emma was a "diva rock star girl" - she looked like a hippie/disco chick to me, but whatever!
here is kaylee as a snow princess with her friend katelyn who was a jedi
here's tanner with his little buddy jack in the wagon while we were trick-or-treating. aren't they soooo cute!!!

appendicitis...
well, i know it's been too long since my last post - and i'm not even posting halloween yet (i have to find the camera first...) i do have a couple pix of emma in the hostpital from aaron's phone (hence the grainy-ness). on sunday we noticed that she had some bumps on her face and we wrote it off as a reaction to halloween makeup. then on monday they got worse (later we found out this is a reaction to a sudden increase in seratonin levels) - by the time she got home from school we decided to take her to the express clinic. she was also complaining that her stomach hurt. well, they ruled out strep and sent us home (mikaela warned us not to go...should have listened to her!) anyway, she ended up 
vomiting all night and instead of her tummy feeling better, it was getting worse. she was obviously in a lot of pain, so we took her to the main clinic and after an ultrasound, a ct scan and some bloodwork, we were on our way to the adjacent hospital for an emergency appendectomy. it was pretty quick (thank goodness it didn't rupture!) with just a one night stay in the peds wing. she bounced back very quickly and went back to school today. she's been showing off her scar and has had lots of love and attention from everyone. we are especially grateful for our friends, the harpers, who dropped everything to take over the rest of the fam while we were in the hospital. anita took over driving the kids to preschool and the parkers and the andersons stepped in with dinners, which was a lifesaver! she was loving the unlimited amount of tv (with her very own remote that she guarded with her life) and she thought it was the coolest thing to make her bed go any which way she wanted. she had lots of visits from friends bearing gifts and her class gave her a huge bundleful of get well cards they made. she thinks she would like to be sick more often...Y
