A Ghoul of a Day!

I loved having Halloween on a Saturday - it really felt like a holiday!

We started off by eating pumpkin pancakes. They were DE-LISH, especially mine because I put chocolate chips in mine!

After playing at home and dancing around the house to "Thriller" and "Monster Mash", we took pictures in front of our pumpkins.

Tanner loves dogs!

Mine, Eli's, Tanner's

We headed to Provo and stopped at the store with Aly to grab some groceries to make a Halloween dinner. We made a homemade Spider Fajita pizza. Our family always had pizza before trick-or-treating so we kept up the tradition.

The finished product and it was yummers.

Tan started feeling sick at Aly's house so he just played with his feet while laying on Eli's lap for a while.

No I didn't go to the Utah game on Halloween (even though there was one). That was my Halloween costume! It was supposed to be funny because I grew up as a Utah fan with die hard fans: my dad, grandpa, and uncles. Us Colorado Archers all went to BYU at the slight disappointment of my dad, but that's what happens when you move out of Utah. Most of my cousins are major Ute fans but I have mellowed out and will cheer for both teams. I have been known to wear Utah stuff in the BYU student section which angered quite a few BYU students (and BYU stuff in the Utah stadium - don't worry Anthony, I had a Utah shirt under my BYU sweatshirt!). Thank goodness I had an army brother to put them in their place!

Tanner really didn't feel well by the time we got to the mall to go trick-or-treating. He sat in his stroller like this the whole time and he never does that. Poor guy! He was nice enough to share his 3 pieces of candy with his parents.

The night ended with Tanner having a fever of 102.5 and a cool sponge bath followed by cuddles with dad to warm up.

We only got one group of trick-or-treaters all night and it was an old student of mine. I was nursing Tan when they came so I couldn't see her - bummer! Now we have a big bucket of candy left over. Anbody want more candy? I need to go on a sugar fast until Thanksgiving!
