Happy Halloween!

Beau and I LOVE Halloween. It is our favorite holiday. We usually celebrate all month and do lots of festive things. This year the month of October has been busy and I was sick for most of it. But, the week before Halloween we managed to get some good fun in.

We went to the Pumpkin Walk this year with The Ashcrofts and The Palmers. I was so tired and still getting over my chest cold/pneumonia so I wasn't in the best mood but, Gracie loved it. The local farmers donate lots of pumpkins to different organizations around Logan and then they get carved and put together in scene's. This year the theme was "the magic of animation". It was so cool to see things like The Muppets, Finding Nemo, etc carved out of pumpkins! Stupidly though I didn't take my camera. To see pictures of the pumpkins go to www.pumpkinwalk.com

Beau didn't have to work one day this week because of snow so, we put on our warmest clothes and began to do our tradition of painting the window for the holidays. Beau is an amazingly talented artist and he free drew the picture and then I helped fill in. Everyone in our ward that drove by was so impressed at his talent. I was also very very impressed.
On friday night we went with our friends to a huge costume party at one of their friends house. It was a blast. This year I was Wendy Darling, Beau was Peter Pan, and Gracie was Tinkerbelle. We got a babysitter from the ward to come over and we got to hang out for a couple of hours with just some adults. It was GREAT! We had a wonderful time.

On Saturday we went to our wards trunk or treat. It was raining so we held it in the gym. All the kids were dressed so darling but, the cutest one of all was this little green Tinkerbelle. She loved grabbing candy out of people's bowl it was so cute!

Today, as in the real Halloween, we are watching movies, carving pumpkins, eating soup, and making caramel apples. Happy Halloween everyone!!
