Halloween Party!!

Halloween is officially my kids favorite holiday! Lindsie is my little party planner. It doesn't matter what the occasion, she loves to throw a party (she's definately related to Aunt Lisa). She and Troy had a blast planning a very spooky Halloween party. We decorated the basement with all kinds of scary decorations. There was a spider that crawled down a web, a crawling hand, a singing skeleton, and many more things to scare. The theater became the dance floor with the strobe light and fun Halloween songs like Purple People Eater, Monster Mash, and Thriller! We even had a witches potion (dry ice rootbeer) the kids all dared each other to try. Rumor had it that if you drank the witches potion you may turn into a toad! Needless to say, we had a spooky and fun night. By midnight, I was ready for Calgon to take me away!

Uncle Bill's Cabin

Every year my family looks forward to getting together at my uncle Bill's cabin. This year we had beautiful weather. It was so much fun being up in the mountains with the leaves changing, getting us in the mood for Fall. This was the first year that everyone was able to make it -- all my siblings are living in Utah now, so we all got to be together. It's so fun when we get together. We are always guaranteed to have a few laughs! That's what I love about my family -- we love to laugh =)

This moose was just walking across the road! It was HUGE

I thought this picture was so funny of Meg and Jeremy's dog, Tica, jumping up trying to play with Archie!

Janessa found out she has great aim!

We celebrated our birthday's while we were there. Doesn't that cake look delicious!

We went into Park City and did the alpine slide and the coaster. Lindsie and I rode the coaster together and laughed our heads off all the way down.
Thanks so much mom and dad for always planning this fun weekend. We look forward to it every year!
