Halloween

We had a fun Halloween with lots of party's and candy.

Sarah had a Young Women's activity where she had to dress up as an ancestor.  She picked her Great Great Grandmother Augusta Wilhelmina Wolf. She called Oma to find out what they wore back then and then we went and found some clothes at the thrift store.  She looked really cute and had a fun time learning about Family History.

The next night was Trick-or-Treating at Intel. The kids love being able to go to Dad's work.

We also walked up to the school for the Harvest Festival.  All of the classrooms made scarecrows.  Alex made a minion for his class display.  

Then Mommy and Daddy went to a party at some friends house.  They had a lot of fun and thought it was one of the best Halloween parties they have ever been to. The house was decorated top to bottom with really fun decorations and the food was delicious.  We also were able to talk with lots of our friends.  It was a fun date night.

Next, was the Ward trunk-or-treat and Chili Cook-off.  Mom's chili won for the hottest!  She mad a yummy white bean and chipotle chicken chili.  The kids loved playing with their friends!  Alex especially loved being chased by lots of little girls that followed him around all night.  :)

Then on Halloween night Mom made a yummy Halloween dinner.  Afterwards, our friends the Dansies came over and we went trick-or-treating with them.  The kids loved it, but we were all pretty tired afterward.  Whew!  That was a long week.  Time to throw away some candy.  :)

Mommy's Random Backyard Pictures

Mommy took some pictures in the backyard. 

Yes we know.  She took a picture of herself.  Someone has got to do it and it is purely for Family History purposes.  So her family can remember what she looked like because she usually is behind the camera.
