Halloween

Halloween weekend was very busy. Scott, Allison, Abe and Henry came into town. We started out having Breakfast on Friday morning. Then we went and got pictures of the Grandkids taken. They turned out so cute!

The boys went golfing while we were getting pictures. After that we hung out for a while and then went and ate lunch at a Japanese Restaurant. They cook the food at the grill right in front of you. (I don't know what that is called.) It was tasty, but Annika didn't like the fire. After lunch we came home and got ready for the Trunk or Treat.

(Annika is already eating her candy. She had pixie stick down her chin.)

I was in charge of this primary activity and it went really well. Right before it started one of the men in our ward came riding in on a black horse, and was dressed up as the headless horseman. He was throwing out candy. Annika really wanted some of his candy, but didn't know what she thought of him.

(Our family all dressed up at the Halloween party.)

On Saturday Heidi threw a Halloween party for the family. It was so much fun! She had a scavenger hunt for the kids. They ended up finding the secret ingredient which made the witches brew bubble and smoke. They loved watching it.

We played a great pin the spider on the spider web. We ate donuts off a string, and listened to a scary story.

It was a great party! After Heidi's house we drove out to surprise Grandma and Grandpa Nye. Then we headed back to South Jordan. We took the kids out trick or treating. We were the only ones out. All of the houses were giving the kids handfuls of candy. They were having so much fun. Abe would run up to the house and put his finger on the door bell. and was told to wait for Henry and Annika. He would look back at them running up the sidewalk and say "is everyone here". He made me laugh!

On Sunday we woke up and were getting ready for church. I walked down stairs to get Annika some cereal and the clocks were an hour ahead of the ones upstairs. I guess that the alarm clock thought that it was daylight saving time. Needless to say we missed Sacrament Meeting. After Church we headed back up to South Jordan and ate dinner with the family. It was a long weekend but fun to hang out with the family.
