Halloween Weekend

My Halloween was pretty uneventful... but I still had fun.

On Friday we had a TON of food at work. It was crazy the amount of snacks that were there. Luckily I left at noon so I didn't eat too much.

I went to help Anh (the lady I work for) with her son's Halloween party. Her son is in the second grade. It was s funny to see all the kids in their Halloween costumes... so were not so great and others were super elaborate... it was really funny. We had them decorate these orange paper plate to make them look like a jack-o-lantern and then they decorated these pumpkin scented candles (it was cute because all of the kids said "I will give this to my mom"). Once they were done with the crafts we played games. There was one relay type game were they had to scoop popcorn out of one bowl and carry it to another (that got a little messy) and the other game was a big bowl full of spaghetti noodles with these gummy eye balls in it and they had to find the eyes. What I thought was funny about that game was the girls were better at it than the boys. I would have thought the boys would just dig in there and get it all out, but they seemed to think it was gross. It was really funny.

Then after work I went and helped my mom get ready for her Halloween party. She was dressed as a gypsy lady. We did her makeup all bright and colorful and she wore this black curly wig and all these scarves and jewelry. It was great!

Then I went and met up with Tallon so we could go see his nephews in their costumes. We were going to go with them to go trick-or-treating, but by the time we met up with them Ian (the oldest of the 2 nephews but still only five years old) was tired and ready to call it a night. They said that he was scared of the "reals." We asked them what are "reals"... I guess they are anything with a mask or scary face. Ian wouldn't go up to any of the houses that had "reals." We thought that was funny. The other nephew Luke is only a year and 2 months so he didn't go trick-or-treating, but he had a cute pirate costume on.


Then Ashley (Tallon's sister-in-law) and I went and got pumpkin shaped pizzas from Papa Murphy's... they have them for like 6 bucks and it is the huge pizza.



Saturday I worked from 12 to 5 for a lady here at the office and then after that Tallon and I just went home and enjoyed our pumpkin shaped pizza. And Sunday we went back over to Dillon and Ashley's so Tallon could help with this garden and Ashley and I just hung out with the baby.


Not a very exciting Halloween, but it was nice to have a pretty relaxing weekend.
