Our ward had their annual Halloween party (Brian was on call again) I really wanted to dress up but I didnt think I had anything to wear. I told Brian that I really wanted to dress up and I was so sad because I didn't think I had anything to wear. But I started going through some boxes and remembered I had some Hawaii stuff, I was so excited!! I was Hula girl, coconut shells and all and Ashley was a grape bunch and Braden a Lion. I think we ended up lookin' pretty good! I was so sad Brian couldn't be there, they really picked some bad days for him to be on call this month.
I was going to make the usual sugar cookies and decorate them, then I saw these Rice Krispy Frankenstein treats in a magazine. (I will post a pic tomorrow my camera just died) I spent the afternoon making them and they were a hit at the party! Luccily I was able to snatch the last one on the tray.
There was a chili cook off and Bingo and they had people decorated rooms and the kids trick or treated from room to room. It was lots of fun, so many great people here. I cannot believe it is almost Halloween. That means that my little brother Tanner will have been out on his mission for 1 year, Braden is 2 1/2 Ashley is a half of a year old, I am now half a year older, Brian almost graduates in 1 1/2 years (1 month away) Crazy, Time fly's!!
