Here's the winning meal from our election night dinner: lasagna, fruit salad, chocolate pie and Mountain Dew. Mountain Dew? It wasn't even on the ballot!
As you can see from the ballots below, our family's small exercise in democracy took a wild swing that should have been a warning for the night. Abe wrote in Mountain Dew on his ballot and convinced Gibson to do the same. Which wouldn't have mattered except Brandan wrote in water on his ballot. This meant water, orange juice and root beer only got one vote each and Mountain Dew won.
Brandan's office got a head start on the holidays by holding their holiday party Thursday night. They met at the ice skating rink for dinner and ice skating. Brandan took Abe and Gibson.
Here's a photo of Gibson skating. When we were done, Gibson said he figured out that you can tell how much fun you had ice skating by how wet you are.
Brandan, Abe, Helen and Gibson raked leaves at our friend, Masood's, house this Saturday. Helen got to use a leaf blower.
Here's a photo of Gibson using a rake to fill the wheelbarrow while Helen blows leaves his direction.
The missionaries also came to help. From the left are Elder L., Abe, Masood and Elder H.
Gibson got a turn with the leaf blower, too.
Gibson helped Brandan make quesadillas for dinner tonight. Gibson especially wanted to make homemade tortillas-- flour and corn.

Hey, an election where write-in votes actually made a difference!
