Cafe Rio

 This week marks Brooke's first trip to Cafe Rio.  We went down to the outlet mall to exchange some of her clothes for warmer items, and while we were there we had lunch at Cafe Rio.  Cafe Rio even has free quesadillas for kids!  Good thing I read the whole menu!  So Brooke even got to eat with us, and for free!  She loved it!


Someone at work has a garden that is doing well.  We have a "free" table in the lunch room where people can leave stuff for others to take and one day I found an assortment of gourds!  I don't really know what I got, but I got something!  It's up to Monica to figure out what it is and how it can become food.


 We also did some more Halloween decorating.  Monica did a bunch of it while I was at work, but we got a little kit to make ghosts to hang up, so we put those together and out in our trees!  We maybe should have turned off the porch light to make it look more creepy...


 Here's a shot of the ghosts over in the trees, you can see them better in this picture.


While we were at the outlets I found the perfect shoes for Brooke.  She tried them on and loved them!  Monica claims they are too big though, so we had to put them back.


This week  elders quorum basketball was moved to the stake center so we would have a bigger court and could play 5v5 because we had so many people coming.  I knew a full size court would be bigger than the one we played on in our church, but I did not remember how large a full size court truly is!  It was almost daunting when I got there...  Guess I don't play much official basketball...

The BYU football game this week was great!  I must admit that I was quite worried about playing Michigan State.  Now it is possible that Michigan State also isn't quite as formidable as I thought they were, but I did not think we'd come out of it with a win, and I'm very happy we did!  I feel like our team is finally starting to click together and play well, so that's a good sign for the next few games that also look to be tough.

We also spent quite a good portion of our evenings this past week using a photo editing tool called GIMP.  Monica was using it to make bridal shower invitations, primary program invitations, and various other things for the primary.  It took a lot of time, but we ended up with very good results!




And I think that's about it for this week.  Hope everyone's doing great!
