I am not going to lie. October was one crazy-train for me.
It started off awesomely. We got to host Elder Howell before he went into the Missionary Training Center, bound for Nevada! He was so sweet with the kids and such a great guest. We enjoyed giving the kids the chance to get to know a missionary!
October was warm enough to take some family walks down the river trail and have our family photos taken by my super-awesomely-talented friend.
(When Henry saw this picture, he casually stated, "Oh, that's the one where I was saying 'CawCaw!'" That made us love this picture.)
We're walking. But you probably figured that out.
The REAL Vigues.
Sheridan was diagnosed with an under-performing eye. She got these chic frames.
Tyler worked hard the first half of the month to help pull off some fabulous BYU Broadcasting meetings...and then, two days later, he went to INDIA for his new job!! (I'm going to give you a hint--this was a big reason the month was crazy for me. The big-deal BYU meetings + job change + week-long trip to India leaving me alone with 5 children. For a week.)
Not only did he get some cool duds...
He also gets to be part of an organization that is helping leprosy-affected colonies in India. They work to provide medical care, education, and micro loan opportunities to the families in leper colonies. It is very, very exciting that he gets to be part of such an amazing organization.
Tyler loved the people he met in India. He loved the opportunity to see what he's helping these individuals work toward. He is excited to work with the individuals in India who are helping these colonies lift themselves out of pretty horrible circumstances.
(These were Tyler's digs for that week).
And, yes, he returned home via the north pole.
Just in time for the kids' Primary Program at church (ok, he really got home the day BEFORE their program. I shouldn't exaggerate!).
Here they are, cuteness personified!
And then, it was Halloween.
But that gets its own post!
