halloween

I love Halloween and it never disappoints!
This year we were lion tamers and jack was our lion.
(appropriate, don't you think?)
i wish I had more pictures of his little costume that I made but I wasn't about to provoke this lion when he was already doing us a HUGE favor by agreeing to even wear the costume, let alone be photographed in it.
see?
Our first halloween party was one we did with my family here.
It's now a tradition that we picked up with our friends in Rexburg.
We eat chilli our of pumpkins and jello that looks like candy corn.
Then we did a mummy making contest with toilet paper which resulted in a toilet paper fight.

Then we had a costume party for the med students and their families. These are always so much fun.
They had it here.
It was gorgeous. I have never seen such elegant food for 2 year-olds.
we carved masked pumpkins
and a mummy pumpkin.
 (i used to do this all the time when I was little so I had jack help me. All it is is damp toilet paper tried onto a pumpkin)
I decorated.
Michael took me to see Thriller at Kingsburry hall.
The dancing was ridiculous! I loved it!
And we did trunk 'r treat at the church.
My favorite jack quotes from tick or treating were
#1. Him saying "candy gorgeous? please gorgeous?" Adding gorgeous on to the end of his plea is his way of one upping "please". And it works:) What? Who doesn't like to be called gorgeous?
#2. Saying Happy Ween to everyone at the door.

4 somethings nice:
