It is Halloween today and I am still waiting for the first trick-or-treaters to knock on our door. I am excited to tell the kids how cute they are! I learned a lesson today though-next year we are going to have to get candy we do not like. I am afraid that we don't have much left since we loaded up on vanilla tootsie rolls and twix. One of our home teachers just visited us, and after his lesson about the importance of the temple, he left us with sugar cookies. Mmm, 'tis the season! The house smells like our favorite pork chops and fall candles. I love the spirit Sundays bring to our house, the chance they give us to relax, go to church and spend time together.
These pictures are from last weekend at Reece's 1st birthday party. Dad ran around doing Popeye impressions reminding me of the Robin Williams version we used to watch- the one where Olive Oil's big boyfriend sings that song "I'm mean, I'm mean...".
Jess, Danny and the kids were so cute! Taylor looked just like Jessie, especially since she got braces earlier that week. Our little Taylor is a big girl now! (sniffle) We love you all- to infinity and beyond.
The image of Nikki and Ryan still makes me laugh out loud. They could not have done it better. At one point, Ryan must have been looking for something and shuffled through the living room in his moon boots with his head held down, stumbled once and blamed it on the magnified glasses. It was hilarious.
Oliver was great. Just like we usually find Grandpa, he wore his Carharts and crocs and had a pencil and some gum handy in his pockets. I saw him reach for Grandpa several times during the party, it was sweet.
Ty and Tanner BOTH got the night off work, which doesn't happen very often, so that was a bonus! And I haven't seen them dress alike in lots of years! Good job mateys...
'UP' is one of our favorite movies ever. The costume was all Jeff's idea. We had a blast and are very glad the gray hair spray washed out easily!
The only people missing were my big brother Aaron and his family. Miss and love you and hope to see you soon!
It has been a very HAPPY Halloween indeed.
