It's a Boy!

Like all moms-to-be, Ashley wondered if her baby would ever arrive. The only day she wanted to avoid--Halloween!  Luckily, the phone didn't ring that day.  But we did get the good news on Election Day, November 4.  The little guy's name . . . Chase Samuel Taylor.   Chase is our third grandchild, and like Halle and Audrey, we know he will fill our life with all that is good.  

During the days that Mom, Dad, and baby Chase stayed at the hospital, Craig and I kept Halle busy by shopping at her favorite store Hello Kitty, playing with Cocoa, going to the Jazz game, eating hot dogs (surprisingly, her favorite food), and watching every grandparent's favorite show "Little Einstein."  

Welcome Chase!

The Season for Witches!

On October 31, two little witches named Halle and Audrey flew in on their brooms to surprise their grandparents with smiles, giggles, and a few not-so-scary faces! 

Devin even made a quick stop at home that afternoon to see his nieces before  racing back to BYU for a Stake Halloween party. 

While I've never been an avid Halloween fan (probably from my days of teaching school and trying to maintain some semblance of order in the classroom), Halle and Audrey certainly were the highlights of a long night of knocks at the door from visiting spooks and goblins.
