Halloweens Past

 Mark and I both really enjoy Halloween.  He likes dressing up and decorating and I like eating candy.  It was always my favorite holiday before we had kids, then Christmas trumped all.  However, we both still really get into the holiday and have enjoyed sharing our enthusiasm with our children.  I've recently been thinking about how much fun we have always had on Halloween which promted me to dig up old photos.  We have dressed up together every year since we got married and here is a picture of each year.  

Vacation, kind of

A couple weeks ago we were supposed to take a trip to Phoenix to go to my sister's baby's blessing. We got the tires changed, the oil changed, we bought tickets to the U2 concert, and we were ready to go until I came down with strep throat the day before we were to leave. I probably would have cried all day long if I didn't feel so sick. Mark had already taken time off work and I started feeling better after getting on antibiotics so we spent a few days going to the pumpkin patch, Ogden Nature Center, Living Planet Aquarium, and Tracy Aviary. It was fun; we had a great time! But we still can't get our kids to look at the camera and smile. Mark and I also had Lewis take our picture a couple of times since we are never in pictures together. One turned out well, one not so well.

Pumpkin Patch, Revisited

So, we went to the pumpkin patch again this year. We had such a good time last year that we went to the same place this year. It was a lot of fun this year too! We all love Halloween at our house and like to do as many Halloween activities as we can. I love our family fun days!
