\"CuteI know I’m a little late – but here is how I spent my Halloween.<\/p>\n

Traveled to Salt Lake on Thursday, where I indulged in 1\/2 of a Judge Brownie, a Chicken Tostada Salad at Cafe Rio, and made a Halloween cake with Ashley. <\/p>\n

Turned out cute, didn’t it?<\/p>\n

Friday afternoon we headed to my mom’s “cabin” near Fairview, UT to spend the next 24 hours with my mom & Bart, and my kids\/their families. The cabin is actually a very beautiful and spacious log home built almost entirely by Bart. He’s a manly man. <\/p>\n

I think my entire condo would probably fit in the upstairs loft. It’s really lovely. And my mom had decorated the loft so cute for the party.<\/p>\n

\"WhiteWe saw several of these deer. They’re beautiful animals, but we’re not happy that they devour every plant my mother tries to grow (except the lavender).<\/p>\n

After the mandatory family photo shoot (those pics will be in another post) we got into costume and started the party. <\/p>\n

\"Witches<\/p>\n

\"Granda
\nThree of us were witches, but my mother costume was, by far, the best. The teeth made her talk funny \ud83d\ude42
\n\"Kennedy<\/p>\n

Kennedy was a vampiress. <\/p>\n

Emily was the Little Mermaid… here, wrapped as a mummy by her Japanese dad. <\/p>\n

\"Mummy<\/p>\n

The “mummy wrapping” contest was the big hit of the night. Each team had to wrap each other fully and quickly. <\/p>\n

Emily and Brandon won – but Marie & Jennifer, Kennedy & Bart made valiant effort.<\/p>\n

After a game of pumpkin bowling, costume parade, dancing to the Monster Mash, and distribution of prizes, we were ready for cake. But first, a group picture.<\/p>\n

\"One<\/p>\n

\"Room<\/a>After cake, it was story time. I read the girls a really cute book called Room on the Broom<\/a>. Then we tucked the girls in their sleeping bags for the night… <\/p>\n

Next morning we were greeted with a wonderful hot breakfast. The guys did guy stuff (I don’t know what it was) but the girls decorated pumpkins with felt eyes, noses and mouths that Ashley and I had created, and the women crafted decorations out of wood, glitter glue, paint and glass beads. <\/p>\n

\"Crazy<\/p>\n

Then it was back to Salt Lake for trick or treating! <\/p>\n
