Ward Halloween Party.

It turned out great. We had a great turn out and my Committee rocks. Thanks for all those who helped it was fun.

Emerson's Dance recital

Emerson had her first Dance Recital last night. It was so cute. She has so much fun going to dance. They did some Halloween dances. Her cousin Abby is in Dance with her which makes it even better.

Here Emerson is getting an award from her Dance teacher.

One of the dances.

Before going off stage after a dance. Each girl told the audience what they were going to be for Halloween. Here is Em telling us she is going to be a pirate.

Almost there.

Just finished cooking 150 cupcakes. Can't wait to decorate them, NOT!!!Have a batch of home made chili (recipe is Bonnie's) cooking and only 2 more soups to make tomorrow. Table decorations are done, finishing up a game, Kid's teachers gifts done. I feel so bad I was suppose to help out a teacher tomorrow with a class party (I forgot I had signed up) and had to tell him that I would have to help another time. I don't know when I would have fit it in. I think the rest is stuff I can only do tomorrow. I can't wait for Friday to be over. I hope it all works out and everyone has fun.

FHE

Last night Kade and Becky were in charge of FHE. We had a halloween FHE. It was so much fun to get together and visit. Kade sent around sections of a story and each family had to finish that section and then he put the story together and read it. It was so funny. Then the kids played the ABC game.

Some of the boys.
Grandma teaching them the abc game.

what a cute witch.
Deacon was terrified of Kade's costume, and when you see it you will know why.

I believe he takes the prize for best costume. Love the chest hair.

Miss Em in her pirate costume

Hadley and Grandma

The family before the party. Ryker was a quarter back, Kaige a line backer, Slatin and inmate and Em a pirate.

Today for school Em is wearing her Halloween skirt.

He's old but not that old

Tonight we are having a Halloween FHE with my family. We are suppose to dress up.
Today my brother Kade called to ask me if Chris had a silk shirt that he wore in high school, when he was met with silence he said you know in the 1950's. I said Kade, Chris wasn't even born in the 1950's . Oh yeah. I laughed so hard. This will really make Chris's day.

Halloween Party

The bishopric came over to my house and extended a calling to me. I am now along with being over prepardness, I am over the activities for the ward. YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let's just say I am so grateful for a wonderful committee who I know I can count on because we have a halloween party to plan.

Overwhelmed was an understatement. Everyone is busy, life is busy, but I didn't know if I had time to plan a party for the whole ward along with the few other things I was responsible for. It is crazy how things all need to be done at the same time.

We are having the party on Friday and we also have a cannery date set that I am in charge of the same afternoon. I am so thankful for a wonderful husband who is stepping in my place at the cannery, for a GREAT committee, and wonderful friends who are lending help and ideas. I can now see the light and even though this week will be hetic, Friday will be fun. (fingers crossed)

Getting Wood

Chris, Kaige, Slatin, Emerson and Lucky me headed up to Kolob yesterday to get wood. (I hate getting wood) It all started out so fun

She was so happy to be there

But after awhile this is where we found her. Crying in the car, saying I hate this stupid, dirty place, I wanna go home NOW.

Memories.
