Halloween

Devan went as Peter from Narnia. He chose this costume because of the sword. Typical of boys right?
Kami chose to go as Little Mermaid. I tried to persuade her into choosing something other than a princess, since she is one every year. But see where that got me.

The kids had a great time trick-or-treating at the stores on main street down town. They also got to visit their dad at work, where of coarse they received candy. Later that evening they went to our wards trunk-or-treat, receiving even more candy. They have enough candy to last them until next Halloween. And the holidays are just beginning.

Pumpkin Carving

We had a great time carving our Halloween pumpkins with some of our friends.

Murder Mystery Theater!

This year for Halloween a friend of ours wanted to have a Halloween party. So we all got together and had ourselves a Murder Mystery Dinner. We all got dressed up as characters from the game and proceeded to act out the game. We had so much fun acting out a role that is so not like ourselves. The game took place at an Archaeological dig sight and we were all guest until the host is killed and one of us did it. Each round of the game revealed new information on each character and we all tried to eliminate who did it. In the end the victims daughter Tara Sunder did it ( played by Bekah Hughes).

Witches Fest 2008!

Jenny(sister), Stephanie(sister-in-law), me, my mom

My sister and I have started a tradition where once a year we get together with my mom and my new sister-in-law and we go to the Witches Fest. We love it. We get to dress up in our "witchy" costumes, which mine and Stephanie's will be better next year since my mom is making us our costumes. But we wear our fun hats. We head down to Gardner Village where we eat, drink (water) and dance the night away. And sometimes we even buy something. Its a great night to get out with the girls and have a good time. No kids allowed, Neil gets them.
