Halloween


We had a great Halloween. I loved having it on a Friday. The kids are out of school early on Fridays which allowed us more time in the afternoon to relax. Right after school we went to Jeff's work and the kids trick-or-treated around his office from desk to desk. Jeff's co-workers treat well. We went out trick-or -treating in the evening with fabulous temperatures of 68 degrees. We were never cold. I don't remember any Halloween this warm in my life, except a couple of years we spent the holiday in St. George. We had a couple of the boys friends with us and everyone had a great time. We went to many houses and enjoyed our stops at our friends the Back's for scones, a Halloween tradition. Then we went to our friends the Torres' for chili and snacks. I think we got home around 10:30 pm. I loved not having to worry about school the next day.

Here are pics of the kids. Jessica is a Ute's cheerleader with her cute mouse pumpkin. Mason is the clone trooper this year and he carved an owl pumpkin. Jonah is under the mask as the Grim Reaper and he has a very detailed Lion pumpkin. Ellie went as Hannah Montana, she didn't like the feel of the wig so she decided her blond hair would work, she had a scary cat pumpkin. Jeff was a cat wrangler, dressed as a cowboy herding cats. I was a country girl, red hair and cowboy hat, while we were trick-or-treating but I showed up to Jeff's work dressed in my Sunday best and a banner that said "Trophy Wife". Everyone had a great Halloween this year.
