The biggest turkey I ever cooked!!!

Our chickens are finally all laying now! We went for pretty eggs instead of great layers.
We finally got sick of feeding our gigantic turkey we raised. It was the biggest turkey I've ever cooked! He weighed 36 pounds going into the oven! Live weight was over 45 pounds! I didn't have a pan big enough to cook him so I used my roaster oven and we still had to cut off the legs and the lid didn't close all the way! But he was yummy and we froze tons. Travis went on the potty for the first time! He has been a few times since but nothing consistent yet. He happened to be wearing his crown at the time:) on the throne!

Halloween and Suzy's birthday

Suzy was very tired after Trick or Treating!
On Saturday we did some chores and the kids had a good time.

The birthday girl got toys and clothes. She was very patient in the car all day. We went to Missoula to pick up a truck for Kevin to drive and we got to see Grandma and Grandpa Lloyd. Missoula is part of their mission so they were able to meet us! We were able to make it home in good enough time to have a party for Suzanna's first birthday! She didn't like getting into the cake very much but she was a good sport.
