Halloween Festivities

Happy Halloween!
So to continue with more...

The YW & YM of our ward were in charge of the ward Halloween Party. They had a haunted house set up, but needed people to help out with the rooms. They asked Doug to be 'Bernie the Butcher' & Travis to be the 'Crazy Dentist'. Let me just say that these two had way too much fun! By the time I got there after work, their voices were shot from cackling & laughing like crazies! I was really impressed with the entire haunted house. A lot of kids got scared! And a lot of adults were very jumpy. :) Here are some pics of our crazy butcher & dentist. Steph & I are very proud wifes. :)

Doug used his bone kit from school to make everything more dramatic!


What is actually looked like walking through the haunted house!


Today was a really fun Halloween! I did my friend Stephanie's hair in the morning and then we met up with our friends Megan & Crescent at Panera Bread. They treated me to lunch for my birthday! It was sooo yummy! It's a lot like Paradise Bakery. Thanks girls! I had a great time!


Tonight we went over to the Evans' and carved our pumpkins! It's so funny how hard everyone concentrates on their little pumpkin. :) They all turned out great!


We are so proud of our work!

After we went to the Smith's and ate pizza & watched the 'Dark knight'! It was just as good the second time! We had a fun-filled Halloween, but I'm not going to lie, I'm really starting to look forward to Thanksgiving!

I missed talking to you at church today!! I'm sorry you're still not feeling good. I had a ton of fun with you this weekend. It should be someone's birthday every weekend!

Happy Birthday! I honestly thought about it all day and kept thinking I needed to email you or something, but of course, I didn't and now I'm late. Anyway, hope it was lots of fun!
