Happy Halloween

Spider (Web) Man!

We had a great Halloween. Partying non-stop for three days. We had the Patton's party on Monday. The ward party on Tuesday and 4 class parties on Wednesday day. On Halloween night we were exhausted we we down our street and half way down the next before coming home and going to bed. We had to miss the Steele's fun party because we were just to worn out. Jon and I represented Asia with the Geisha and Sumo. It was so funny when Jon would sit down. All we could see was the top of His head sticking out. Riley was a spider web. We found this cool hat in Ruidoso. Kade was an Indian. He chose this because Indians don't have to wear shoes. Bree and Cole were pirates. Coles dreadlocks looked more like a Cher wig by the end of all the parties. We all had a great time.

And the Sumo said, "Peek a boo".

Pumpkin Carving Fun!

Today we carved our pumpkins. I was thinking the triangle eyes and noses would be perfect. Then I found a pumpkin carving kit that I bought last year. Four hours later we were done. We had a really fun time together. Cole's pumpkin was a pirate of course. Not just a pirate but a pirate skull. Bree's was a Cosmo Kitty. Riley's is called Hot Head. And Kade's is the Ripper. Our pumpkins got the first place ribbon at the ward Halloween party. The award was a giant pumpkin pie. I guess the mess was worth it.

Is it really October?

Yes, It's Oct. 27th and we are still swimming. What's up with that? Oh well, We really enjoyed Val Vista Lakes. Bree and Maddie practiced their back dives. And a few of us even got sun burned. What? Maybe we will have a Fall. Maybe not.

Wow, Cole really looks like Jon in this picture.

Our New Mall Rocks!

We had more fun with our cousin Maddie at the new San Tan Mall. Bree and Maddie insisted on wearing their pajamas so they could be twins. We went to build a bear. We got our face painted. And best of all the girls got their hair done at Glitter Box. It was a great day.
Half Spider-Half Took!




Nothing like pizza and root beer after a tough day of pampering.

Glitter Gals!

Ouch!

Have you ever had a blood blister on the bottom of your foot before? I have had one for a few days and it kills. Jon was sick of me complaining so He decided to operate. He soaked my foot for a while and then he filed the bottom. For a while I thought it was awesome . It was the best pedicure I have ever had. Then the pain. He stuck a needle into it. I thought I was going to die. It was the worst. Bree thought it was a funny situation so she ran to grab the camera (notice the nice photo). In the end Jon couldn't get to the blood blister it was to deep. I will just be hobbling around for a few more days. Thought you would enjoy this. Hey it's Halloween time, I had to think of something gory to share.

Best Cousins!

Madison spent the week with us. She got to fly on an airplane all by herself. She was so excited. Bree and Madison are lucky to have each other. They are the only girls of all the cousins on the Ogden side. They are only a few months a part in age. Bree was sad to see her go home.

The Day I Have Been Waiting For! The Day Jon Has Been Dreading.

Last Night the Mall that is 1 mile from our house opened. We all went over for the celebration. We parked and took the trolley from our car to the Mall. They had all sorts of entertainment. The kids loved the circus people and enjoyed the singing and dancing. I felt like a kid at Disneyland. I was so excited to see everything. The night ended with a fireworks show set to Music from ET, Star Wars and America the beautiful.

Madison has been visiting for a few days. Bree is in Heaven. They have had so much fun together.

This man is tall!!!! The kids thought it was so funny when He grabbed our camera and took our picture.

We met the Housley and Steele Families at the mall for a night of fun.

And I thought my legs were long!
There were models all over showing off the clothes from all the different stores. This Model was especially sparkly.

The new children's area was a hit.

Abby had fun watching the fireworks.
