Happy Halloween!!





I don't know what it is, but I love Halloween!! Maybe it's all the fun memories of getting dressed up, going out trick or treating and just spending time with family and friends, but I've always thought it was such a fun holiday. Every year I say I'm not going to fall into the same pattern, but always do! I wait until the last minute to figure out what I'm going to dress as and then it not only costs more, but things are usually picked over. This year I lucked out thanks to my generous friends who lent me part of their old costumes and recycling an old costume from last year.

I have to dress up for school, it's just so fun to see the kids reactions, they love it! So, for our Halloween parade at school I was a girl scout. My friends and I also ran in a little 5-k on Halloween morning that was up at this really cute pumpkin patch in Valencia. It was hilarious, they had people jumping out of corn stalks scaring us, etc...

Then, Halloween night our stake had a big singles Halloween dance party. Yeah, let me just say, if you're looking to meet someone, my suggestion is that a Halloween party is probably not the best place for that. I was dancing w/this one guy who was dressed as a nerd w/really bad fake teeth and all and I know it's shallow, but just could not get over it. Anyway, the party was really fun and it was so fun to see how creative some people were with their costumes.
