Halloween Night - M&C's party

Halloween started out with me putting on my gold cowgirl boots, ivory and snakeskin belt, and plaid shirt with my hair in pigtail braids and a cowboy hat to wear to work :) After I got off work, I went home to make Zupa Toscana soup and grab my pumpkin bread that I made the night before.

Marc and Court's party was really fun like always! We ate and played some awesome games.

Marc, Court, and baby Cannon. I didn't catch a picture of him with his corn on the cob outfit on, but it was such a cute family costume idea

Sydney and Casey

Jess and Alec

The newest sherriffs in town


Cowboys vs. Indians
When Ty and I found out they were going to be Indians, Ty had the great idea to surprise them and show up as cowboys


Our home teacher Matt found out that we were dressing as cowboys, and let me borrow the shotgun that I'm holding. It made real shot sounds and even spit out shells!

The Care Bear family :)
Elizabeth and Dane

Apple Bob

Donut eating contest. T was a good sport. I hate eating donuts fast! It's so hard!

Jenga


We played Jenga on Sunday night; a game I haven't played for years! Look at our skills. See how the tower is teetering? It didn't fall!!

On that round, anyway...

Mom and Daughter - Leopard Style!

I showed up at my mom's last week and we looked very similar :) Like mother, like daughter!

Pumpkin Carving

On Thursday night, we had dinner then carved pumpkins with my family. The dinner was DELISH! We had pizza and salad. The salad is made with lettuce, green onion, almond slivers, and sunflower seeds, then topped with a dressing of red wine vinegar and sugar with pepper. It is seriously yummy.

My pictures aren't that high quality because I took them with my phone, so I vowed to myself that I would bring my camera with me more often :)






We roasted the pumpkin seeds afterward. We also had a taste of pumpkin ice cream that I bought at the store because I couldn't resist.

I love nights with my family!

Halloweeny Weekend Fun


This weekend was a blast! We went to Lagoon with Kim and Dave on Friday after work. They have Frightmares going on right now so it was fun to see the scaryness while walking around :)

T and I got a carameled apple and it was yum. We rode lots and lots of roller coasters and it was fun!

(sorry for the quality of the pics...we only had our phones with us!)



On Saturday we went to the BYU football game, then afterward we went to the Blue Lemon to eat my mom, Katelyn and her date. We then went to Hee Haw farms and it was SO much fun! They had kettle corn, mini donuts, farm animals, a giant slide, and pumpkins galore. We took a hay ride to the haunted walk through and it was seriously scary! They don't cram you in there like most haunted houses, so they let all five of us in at once. It goes through a scary white building and also through the woods. We loved it!

Sundance fall colors







Last Sunday, Tyler and I took a drive up the Provo Canyon where the fall colors are GORGEOUS. We went up to Sundance and walked around. It was so nice and peaceful. I think fall is my favorite time of year. Crisp, chill air, spicy apple cider, and beautiful leaves changing colors.

Random

Last Friday night, T and I went with his family to Outback Steakhouse for his dad's birthday, then we went to see Footloose. Afterward, we got dessert at the Sweet Tooth Fairy. Pictured above is T eating his red velvet cupshake :)

On Saturday, I went to Oakley's baby shower for baby Scarlet and it was so much fun. She got some darling outfits. I rode up with Chelsea, Amanda and Ashley and then stayed afterward because Tyler came up and we went to In-n-Out with Oak and Scott and some friends and also played game afterward at their house.
I made this yummy baked ziti last Monday! Mmm delish...we went to Courtney's baby blessing a couple weeks ago and we went to their house for lunch afterward and they served this.
This is T and I at the game yesterday. It was a gorgeous fall day here in Cougar Town.
I took this picture when I got home yesterday. Look at the colors on my burning bush!
Katelyn and my mom and I went "fishing" on Thursday night.
This is my sweet nephew Ryker last Sunday night! He was eating some rice krispy treats and loving every minute of it :)
