Where Do the Months Go? It's October.

Early in September Avril and I attended a stake baptism. Here she is all dressed up, with her hair curled, ready to go.

In front of the fireplace upstairs.

Side shot.

With Raggedy Ann.

A pensive pose.

With the sweater on.

We noticed these mushrooms on our berm and thought we'd get a shot.

I traveled to Providence, RI for the Bioprocess International tradeshow. I got to go to dinner the first night with Carl and Susan Crockett, who now live in Newport, about 45 minutes away. Here's a shot of the capitol building, not far from my hotel.

And here's a shot back at the hotel - Westin.

Family shot in our backyard. Ready to go to Jesse's friend's wedding reception.

We attended the Church sponsored Latino event at the tabernacle lawn in Logan. We're in front of a booth representing Ecuador.

Avril enjoyed the sucker.

I'm wearing my Mexico shirt. We also attended the Farmers Market at Merlin Olsen park right after the Latino festivities, but forgot to take any photos. We got some fresh peaches and homemade bread at the market.

Avril, bathing in our sink. Grandma Gayle got creative with the hairdo.

Another view. She's holding her fishy friend.

We attended the Saturday, Oct. 2nd, opening session of the LDS conference in the Conference Center across from Temple Square in Salt Lake City.

Here we are with the tabernacle choir and organ in the background.

Looking down from a balcony at a lobby.

The view from one terrace across to the temple.

Some of the flowers on temple square, in front of the Visitors' Center.

Avril got to try on some costumes early, before Halloween. Here she's sporting a Tigger look.

Close-up of the Tigger outfit.

We had lunch here between conference sessions. Here's a shot of Gayle's handiwork on the veggie plate. The tomatoes and cucumbers came from our neighbor's garden.

Gayle and Alicia prepared this diaper cake in preparation for Alycia Rickord's baby shower.

Gayle snapped this with her new phone as a practice shot.

Another of Gayle's phone shots showing outside scenery and Avril with her hair fixed up.
