Halloween

Okay, Halloween is in 13 more days-WOW! Where does the time go??? I'm a room parent for Landon's class and was wondering if anybody had any idea's for a fun game, craft, or anything to do for an hour that doesn't cost a lot of money. I was thinking of making these eyeball cupcakes I saw the other day or the witch ones-I haven't decided yet. I'll for sure bring my cauldron and do the dry ice effect with root beer, the kids love that. I would like a photo op. (besides something fun to do) but I'm not sure if I want to bring all my crazy outfits like I have in that past...maybe, I can find something they can put their head in like at a carnival...anyone seen anything that would be cool?

We Also had a Harry Potter moment tonight. We were outside and an owl flew right by our heads onto the lamp post. I ran and grabbed my camera so you could see.... you might have to click into this picture to get a better view.

I think this has been an interesting fall break for us. We went absolutely no where for the first time in years. Brittany and I worked on one of her 10 hour YW projects and finally finished. She made two recipe books- one for her and one for me and let me just tell you that it was way beyond a 10 hour project and should count for 2! She's already made buttermilk syrup with waffles one morning and she made Alfredo tonight. I think she's liking this project and I'm so grateful for it because I've wanted to put one together for years-it's so nice not having to thumb through my box to find a recipe-it's lovely. Also Landon earned a belt loop for scouts and some arrow points so I guess we got a lot accomplished for not going anywhere :)

Crazy Kids-I sure love them!!!

Okay, so I had to delete my "foreclosure" joke because nobody liked it I guess! I must have a weird sense of humor because I thought it was funny! Funny because the kids had no where to go-like they need more candy after our trunk-or-treat =). On a serious note though, I think it's sad that people are losing their homes especially friends of ours and I really hope the market turns around soon!!! Just so you know-I'm right there with you. Did anybody hear Joseph B. Wirthlins talk about laughter? When they took a wrong turn and ended up in Vegas two hours later-you have to laugh about it because what else can you do? And my favorite was when his daughter had a blind date and when he showed up he was a lot older and she introduced him to everyone and left and got in his car and came back into the house a minute later embarrassed because it was the babysitter picking up her sister to babysit.-How awful and funny is that? If you missed the Saturday morning session, you really should read his talk because I'm not doing it justice to how great the message was. This is me and my little brother Keith at Oregano's. Norma and Rachel came into town and we had a fun weekend. Tara, Brittany, Rachel, and Sabrina being silly.

This must be Brittany's signature pose :)

They went to the humanitarian building and decorated tree's for the Temple. What a great idea! Check out the amazing leader's in the background.

This is Logan eating a donut on the way to the ward camp out. He loves these as you can tell.
