Halloween Night

On Halloween we went to Lindsay's for some white chili and to watch the girls go Trick or Treating.
Laryssa is the one who went Trick or Treating and Jaelyn just slept in her moms arms.
They were dressed so cute!!
Ryss was so funny she was so excited to run up to the doors and get free candy.
She would say "Tank You" To everyone who gave her candy! :)
She got to go with all of her friends from the neighborhood.
After dinner Zach took her girl back out to hit the big houses!!
Down at the big houses they were doing the Thriller Dance.
Most of the kids were scared of the dancers all dressed up scary but Zach said Ryss was loving every minute!!
She was such a cute Skeleton!
We celebrated mom's birthday this night!!
What a fun night with the family!!
Time to call it a night!

Carving Pumpkins

It isn't Halloween without carving pumpkins.
At Cornbelly's they let us take some pumpkins home.
Steve and Lara were over and we had some fun carving the pumpkins while watching scary movies!!
Griffin's pumpkin would not stand straight so he had to carve on the side..
.. It ended up being the best in my mind.
They all turned out so good!!!
Everyone did such a good job.
I love Halloween and all the fun traditions!!
We kept the seeds so we could make yummy pumpkin seeds to eat!!
Time to place them on the porch for the Trick or Treaters!!

Cornbelly's Tradition

Last year for Halloween we went to Cornbelly's with Steve and Lara.
We had so much fun so we went again this year!
They really do such a good job making it so fun with all their fun activities.
We love hanging out with Steve and Lara they are so cute!!
The Famous Pumpkin Tower!!
There are amazing pumpkins that people have carved.
Steve's hands were getting cold and we had an extra pair of gloves but the only thing was that they had monkey's on them. Hahah he was not ashamed!
The Monster Haunted House behind us!
Cinderella!!!
It is the cutest Cinderella Pumpkin Carriage!
Oh my goodness these horses were they highlight of the night.
You rode them around a track while they bounced.
Griff and Steve raced and Steve totally turfed it!!
Then Lara and I raced.
It is really harder then it looks to get them to move quickly!!
BIG rocking chair!!!
Because it was the last night for Cornbelly's and they had extra pumpkins in their pumpkin patch they let us take some home!! Yay we didn't have to buy ours this year :D
What a fun Tradition we have with our friends!!
Can't wait for next year!

SYTYCD

On October 26th my sister and I went to the Maverick Center to watch the
So You Think You Can Dance concert!!
Our mom won the tickets (she wins everything).
Before the concert started we went and ate at the Cracker Barrel.
I love that place!!
Then we walked to the Maverick Center..
.. During our walk from the Cracker Barrel we realized we left the tickets in the car!!
Dang!! So we had to run back to the car in the cold to get the tickets.
We finally made it in and got in our seats.
Let the show begin!!
It was so much fun to go with my sister and watch all the dances!
They were amazing.
I so wish I was good enough to be where they are!
I loved watching them!
During intermission Debbie and Whitney text us saying they had empty seats down on the floor.
So we went down and sat with them for the rest of the show.
Thanks for the good seats you guys!
Tad!!
He is from SLC!
Amazing dancer.
The Finale!
They did so good I loved the whole thing!!
Can't wait to hopefully go again next year.
