Halloween Fun

Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. Now that we have kids its even more fun. We were lucky to attend alot of fun parties. Now thanks to these two, Eric and I have enough candy to last us for a long time!
We first kicked off the season by going to a Pirate Party put on by our neighbor and good friend Jana. They did a treasure hunt and played games. It was such a fun idea.
For preschool last week we had a Halloween carnival for the kids.(Thanks to Rachel for putting most of it together)The kids got to bob for apples, decorate pumpkins and play in the leaves. So fun.



My cousin Audrey hosted a costume party for the kids. She had made a bunch of fun halloween scary treats and the kids played pin the pieces on the pumpkin.

The kids got to decorate their own halloween bags at the library then go around and fill them up.
For story time at the library they read fun stories and then the kids got to go around and trick-or-treat at all the desks.

Erics work had a fun trick or treating event. We went around the office and got lots of candy. Then they had decorated their break room and had treats and scary music playing.
This is our ward Trunk-or-treat. We have never attended one before. They played some fun music and had hot chocolate and donutes. After a while Jack just wanted to pass out the candy. He did a great job.

Timpanogos Caves and Field Trip

Mount Timpanogas Cave hike was way fun. My toosh is paying for it today but it was so beautiful and the weather was great. Jack was able to walk the entire way down but going up we carried them on our shoulders. They loved how dark it was in the caves and they got to each carry their own flash light. We went with the Wetsel family which was great.



We had our first Field Trip for Jacks Joy School. We took the kids to a place called "This is the Place Monument". It was so fun and there was so much to do. Train rides, pony rides, park area, we went into some old building likes schools and banks. Its a Mormon monument so they got to learn about Pioneers.
