HALLOWEEN!

I just LOVE Halloween! My kids did the best to "scrounge" up their costumes after weeks and weeks of indecision. John and I did alright as well! I dug up my wedding dress and threw it on with Tiffany's veil, and voila! Costume! My mother, of course, was MORTIFIED that I would trapse around town dragging my dress. I figured it was nice to actually let the thing breathe for once!

We trunk-or-treated our ward parking lot, then headed off to Grandma Loveridge's neighborhood to increase our loot! The weather was great, and the kids FAST! I think they're finally catching on to the trick...We had a great time with the Mercers, Johnsons, Dustins, and Hendricksons.

Mom, on the other hand, spent her night in the ER...she was sharpening a knife, looked up to see a play during the U of U game, and SLICED her thumb! She was trying to be brave, but when Dr. Tim showed up, immediately shooed her off to get it looked at. She was sent from InstaCare to a specialist who diagnosed her cut TENDON. Crazy! She got surgery, and is now healing...but talk about a SCARY HALLOWEEN! Love you, Mom!

Ashley...Indian...(after I talked her out of being an "archer.")
Andrew...never gets tired of the BYU thing. I think this is 3 years running. Looks like many of his friends wanted to show thier colors this year as well.
Natalie, the good little witch.Matthew...Navy admiral. Love that grin!
Here we all are! For the first year, Ashley asked to trick-or-treat with friends. She was a little torn, because she wanted to be with us, but gave into her friend and went with her. We truly missed having her with us, but she had a good night! Happy Halloween!
