I am not very creative so I had to share the most creative idea I have had in a long time. It will show my lack of creativity because it is not that creative. I fixed the kids Spiderman macaroni and cheese and told them it was Halloween macaroni and cheese. The Spiderman heads are skulls, the houses are haunted houses and the spiders and webs - no explanation needed. Happy Halloween!

Kolby's school Halloween carnival was on Thursday night.

It was a great carnival and Kolby got a lot of compliments on his Harry Potter costume. He has read the first three Harry Potter books. He is mad because I won't let him continue with the series until he is older. He thinks that I need to ask people who have actually read the books (I have not read the books) if book four would be too scary for him to read. What do all you Harry Potter fans think?

Landry had a rough week. He could not stop injuring himself! First, he ran into a glass table at the neighbors and got a cut under his left eye. He did a face plant and injured his nose. The next day he did another face plant off of the curb and got a cut under his right eye and a bump and bruise on his forehead. He also got a cut in the center of his forehead. I have no idea how that one happened.

Addie and Landry went to a Halloween carnival on Thursday morning for the church play group. They had a lot of fun Halloween games and a yummy lunch. It was a cute activity. I did find out that Landry is terrified of sock puppets.

Landry was terrified of his lion costume. His fear amused me so much that I used to chase him around with the costume. Luckily, he reluctantly agreed to put it on for the carnival.

Addie really enjoyed herself at Kolby's school Halloween carnival. She loved getting her face, hair and nails painted. Addie told Kolby that his school is awesome.

No, I don't know what they were thinking.

Landry wanted his picture taken. So he found a good location, posed and waited for the photographer.

Addie does a great job feeding Landry.

Last Monday, school was out for the opening of the deer hunt. Pull yourselves together... I know it is pretty funny. My friend Jean just sent me one of those, "You might be a 'Utahn'"‏ things. Two of the identifying characteristics were:
schools stay open, even if two feet of snow falls over night, but
closes for the opening of hunting season and
your kids believe the deer hunt is a national holiday.
I took the kids to the dinosaur track museum in St. George for something fun to do since they were out of school. That is a real dinosaur track they are standing in front of.

After we went to the museum we went and had a tour of the St. George tabernacle. It was very interesting. We have enjoyed 70 plus degree weather all week except Monday. That made it a good day to go to St. George so we could get our 70 degree fix there. What a great fall!

Kolby found this snake.
Addie fell in love with it. She played with it for hours. She begged to keep it as her pet. I said no. She gave it a kiss goodbye when I finally forced her to come inside.
Landry liked the snake as well. He held it for a little bit before he decided to throw it. Landry was not against the snake. He just throws EVERYTHING!
