Forget Halloween day, we had a Halloween week! Last week was so crazy, and while we had a lot of fun, I’m kind of relieved it is over! :) We literally had a party every day for six days straight. Tuesday was our Mom & Tot party, Wednesday I worked and the girls went to my friend’s ward party with her, then Thursday we had a party with the J. Reuben Clark Association (basically all the LDS law students and their families), Friday was U of O trick-or-treating, Saturday we had a Trunk or Treat with our ward (and a football game party, of course!), and Sunday we got together with some of our friends to celebrate actual Halloween! Whew! Think we’ve had enough sugar to last the rest of the year?! I think the girls were in heaven…or just on sugar highs. Oh well, that’s what Halloween is all about anyway, right – candy and dressing up?! Because we had so many parties, we thought we’d mix things up a little bit and we did two separate costumes for both girls. When Nate & I wanted to dress up, the girls were cheerleaders and we were fans. When we didn’t, they were fairy princesses! :) It worked out great and I think they looked really cute. (Plus with two of them, we were able to represent both of our schools!) On top of all the partying, we also went to the farm (twice!) as a family to go on a hayride and get pumpkins. What a fun (and overwhelming) week!
We told people we were the new "PAC-12"!
Our Utes representation...Go Utah!
...and our Oregon representation! #1 in the country!
I don't know how I got so lucky with these girls, but Kenna found the refreshment table and instead of a donut or candy bar, she chose broccoli!
Hard to see, but Sage is chewing on a pepper!
...and occasionally a crayon. :)
My cute little artist!
Our second trip to the farm - on the hayride!
So beautiful!
Our Perfect Pumpkin!
My two little fairy princesses! (By the time I got out the camera, they were tired and messy...not the best pictures, but they're beautiful anyway!)
On Sunday, Nate and Kenna turned a diaper box into a roller-coaster! He dragged the girls around and Kenna thought it was the greatest thing ever!
At our party that night, we ate some "dirt pudding" with crushed Oreos and gummy worms. Think Sage liked it?
You have the cutest little family. It looks like you guys have been keeping busy. I love to look at your blog and see what you guys are up to. :)
