hALlOwEeN 2010!!

oh goodness... i am finally getting around to posting this. work has been busy and by the time i get home i really don't want to look at a computer. so now i am finally getting a chance to post about my halloween...one of the best holidays of the year!
first you gotta start out with some pumpkin carving. and choking your nephews in the mix. look at me, chillin with the boys. i am pretty sure i am the coolest Aunt EVER! i kind of don't understand why they don't follow me around like sad puppy... i have never been able to find out how to make boys do that... anyways. here is the pumpkins we carved. mine is a haunted house... i know i know, it looks nothing like one. wasn't my best work. when it is lit it just looks like a bunch of squares and circles (see below)...at least i know my shapes. and ofcourse my dad had to throw little Mia into the mix and get her cute pumpkin butt. funny thing...she hated it! but my dad put her in that position and she just sat there and cried...didn't move an inch. it was hilarious. (if you look closely enough you can see her crying face)

after pumpkin carving came the making of the dead man. just the boys participated in this one and than they got the picture below.

at FHE (family home evening) for my singles ward we carved/painted pumpkins. i chose to paint and it turned out pretty good for the tools i had to work with. i was so excited that i went out and bought fake spiders to put all over it and than i came outside one day and the white had washed all away. turns out it was washable paint... grr i was mad.
ok you ready for my costume... hehe
The Beach Troll:
i think it turned out pretty good...what do you think? it sure was a lot of work for only about 4 hours of wearing. i may have to be it again next year. on friday evening we had a little party at heathers house. we had an awesome dance room...including a strobe light :)


(above is some of the gang: some kid..i don't remember his name, Kelsey, Me, Meredith,
Anni & Heather)
saturday evening i had every intention of going down to Salt Lake even though i had no desire to be social again. but than everyone started bailing and people got sick and there wasn't anything left to do. me and heather went to a movie.. awesome way to spend a Halloween huh?
but earlier in the evening i got to see my cute kids all dressed up.
The CUTEST Strawberry:
The dead Motorcross rider & Avatar (Jake to be exact) & and the evil Spiderman with massive muscles:

(Maegan & the cute Strawberry!)

i hope you all had a Happy Halloween! i love seeing everyones post with their costumes. now its onto November and this month is looking crazy as every. the middle week of the month i have something every single day... serious. they are good things such as the Sara Bareilles concert, Harry Potter, and seeing lots of friends. but it will be crazy. I will have a ton of posts.
