This year was really fun for Halloween. I have not really been in the holiday mode because there are no seasons really in paradise, but the weather has cooled down quite a bit in order for it to feel a little bit like fall. I appreciate that. Alot. Anyways.. this year consisted of Friday night was babysitting(which was really fun, we love to play with kids.) Volleyball game and scary movie. Saturday night was Huston's work party, which we both dressed up. Same as last year. shhhh, dont tell. :) but it worked out for us. anyways.. then we ended up heading to the volleyball game again, but this time.. IN OUR COSTUMES! very fun! However, i am finding that the older we get, the more people gives us looks of death and you know they are thinking... " GROW UP, HOW OLD ARE YOU?" and my response would be to that..... where is your festive Holiday spirit. I hope we dress up every year, even if we are just passing out candy. Anyways.. after the game we tried to compile a "traditional" halloween. A few friends joined us with their favorite traditions, like bobbing for apples, carmel dip (since we didnt now how to do carmel apples), pumpkin bread, the donut game(very entertaining) and scary stories of course! It ended up being a wonderful Halloween! Then on Sunday, we carved Watermelons. Foodland was out of pumpkins, so we decided to go with watermelons instead! Our friends watermelon was epic, and ours was fun to do! :) After that we celebrated with the ward at the ward Potluck. It was really fun. We do love our ward. Anyways... for being far from home and coming from someone who doesnt deal well with change, we had a wonderful Halloween together! Our first Halloween Married! :)
