Halloween

The kids got to dress-up 3 times this year. They had a school and Ward Trunk R Treat and Hallween night. After a million mind changes, Madisyn decided to be a Ladybug. Braydon chose to be Woody again this year. Cayson was a skeleton alien. Jake was a Cool Ghoul, this was his last year to really dress-up and he didn't go around the neighborhood trick r treating, he was invited to a friend's house for Scary movies and goodies. The kids really didn't mind the snow. Braydon was so excited everytime we went up to a house where there was something that would jump out or the homeowner would open the door and spook us. He would still be giggling all the way to the next house. It was fun to have my mom here to walk around with the kids.

Grandma Kathy came to visit

Last Thursday through Monday my mom came in town. She made it in gratefully through our Halloween snowstorm! Who would of thought snow?? It is practically melted now. We had a great time. We of course had fun in the snow the day she arrived. Justin was glad to get the Rhino out and use it finally. What better way then to pull the kids in the snow? Friday night we went and bowled and had a lot of fun. We also took her to Estes Park on Halloween. We thought it would be neat to go to the Stanley Hotel and take a peak inside. After all it was the inspiration for Steven King's "The Shining" and it is known to be haunted. Other than the costumed Wedding party there, we didnt see any "Spooks" around. We ended the evening with our ward Trunk R Treat and going around the neighborhood Trick R Treating. This was the first Halloween in a long time since I had to walk in snow!! She left on Monday and will return soon enough. Christmas she and my Dad will be coming.
