Happy Halloween!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! This month hasn't been the most fun considering my current circumstances, but the festivities of the season have made it more fun. To celebrate Halloween we had some friends, Megan and Dave up for dinner. I made "Dinner in a Pumpkin" with "Witch Finger" breadsticks and we watched this week's episode of Vampire Diaries. It was fun to spend the holiday with them. We didn't get a ton of trick-or-treaters but it was fun to see the cute costumes of the kids in the neighborhood.

I got to wear two costumes this Halloween. I cannot believe I am even putting these pictures of myself up on here--but hey...maybe in the future I'll think they're fun. :)

First I was a witch at my sister-in-law's witch baby shower. It was really fun and really festive. Her house was decorated amazingly for Halloween and almost everyone dressed up as witches. That was my first experience dressing up as a witch (believe it or not). I borrowed my sister Kristy's costume.

And this was my costume for the ward trunk-or-treat. My friend, Linda, gave me the costume back in April or May because she knew I'd be too big to fit in much else come Halloween. :)

At the trunk-or-treat Linda was wearing her husband's Japanese jacket thing so we kindof looked like husband and wife. Lol!

We didn't get to have Spencer much this month but fortunately we did at least get to carve pumpkins with him. Spencer had decided that he really wanted to carve a CTR pumpkin so that's what we did. I "designed" it and Mike was in charge of cutting it. He decided to use his jigsaw to do it! :) It worked great! Spencer had a ton of fun using the jigsaw with Mike and the pumpkin turned out really great!

I don't have many Halloween decorations but I am trying to build up my supply. My mom made me an adorable table runner that I LOVE. But I am not putting a picture in this post of it because it'll be shown in an upcoming post. Anyway, here's our front porch and the few decorations we have going on.
