Halloween 2009

Halloween was great! We had such a fun eventful week with Halloween parties at the school and carving pumpkins. Greta came home from school on Friday after her school Halloween party and said, "this is the best day of my life."

Saturday we enjoyed spending time together as a family while anticipating Trick or Treating that night.

The kids got a ton of candy and had fun going door to door with their friends. After we finished our neighborhood we went to a haunted house created by April Hintze's brother in another neighborhood in Eagle Mountain. There was a cemetery outside that we had to walk through to get to the entrance to the haunted house. Once inside we heard spooky sounds and saw haunted mirrors, cadavers, and jars full of who knows what. The butcher knife wielding skeleton that jumped at us got a scream from Holly and was the final straw for Greta, who immediately said, "How do we get out of here?" It was such a maze that she wasn't sure we knew how to get out. We finally made it and were rewarded with candy bars from a guy in a coffin. On the way out Alina was worried about the people coming behind us and said "I hope they make it out alive."
