13 Days

We love the Fall season and Halloween, but each year it seems to pass by way too quickly. So in order to savor the season and holiday, we started a tradition called "The 13 Days of Halloween Fun." We participate in an activity that has something to do with Fall or Halloween and begin on the 19th of October until the 31st. So here's to our 4th anual 13 Days of Halloween Fun!

Day 13: Making and exchanging Halloween Cards.

Day 12: Watching a scary movie. We picked "Sixth Sense." I didn't think Nate would survive but he did just fine. I was proud.

Day 11: Exchanging Halloween facts. We learned how apple bobbing and trick-or-treating originated.

Day 10: Participating in the Halloween fun run. (We counted the Halloween run we participated in earlier in the month).

Day 9: Walking through the leaves at Freeman Park.

Day 8: Making a yummy squash dinner with pork chops. And no those weren't our actual portion sizes.

Day 7: Carving pumpkins. Nate carved the witch and I carved the Haunted House.

Day 6: Dressing Kayla up. I dressed as a cow-girl for a Young Women's Halloween activity. Gotta love D.I.

Day 5: Dressing Skip up. We found this awesome dog wig and dress as Wal-mart and couldn't resist. Skip looks real happy.

Day 4: Drinking some home-made wassail. Yum!

Day 3: Making some rockin' Halloween shirts. If you can't tell, Nate's says " A Jack-O-Lantern in a Snow Storm." Very creative Nate.

Day 2: Making treats for Young Womens. I decided to make a skeleton out of cup-cakes. It turned out pretty cute.

Day 1: Happy Halloween!!

HALLOWEEN Fun Run

For work, I am part of a "Runner's Club." Each month the club members meet up to do something fun. This month, in honor of Halloween, we all dressed up and met at Freeman Park in Idaho Falls. It was pretty funny to see a bunch of people dressed up early on a Saturday morning running around. We got quite the stares......

Nate and Kayla: The "Vacationers" Sara: The "Pig"
Kate and Kyle: The "Romans"

We just love Halloween. It makes us smile!
