{ Happy Halloween }

Those of you who are close to me know that I don't really care for Halloween. For some reason it just feels like work, but in looking at some of your blogs (especially my siser Laura's) I've decided to have a renewed love of this silly holiday and try to get into it a little more.

We had a Halloween Week! Monday we had a party at the studio where I teach and Ayden goes to preschool. We dressed up and had a good time going through the haunted house and playing the fun games they had set up there!

Tuesday night the kids went with their awesome Aunt Whitney down to Brammy's house for the crazy fun Hammer kid party. They got to carve pumpkins, eat pizza, and got a sweet treat bag with all kids of fun Halloween stuff!

Thursday was Ayden's Halloween party at school. Sophie and I got to stay and help with the party. His teacher Mrs Marsha does such a great job and the kids had an absolute blast!

Then, of course, we had the ward trunk-or-treat last night as well as trick-or-treating around the neighborhood. We've made it a tradtition since we moved here to always dress up on Halloween. I decided to be a vampire (countdown to Twilight on the brain) but everyone got a kick out of the other 3 . . .

If that wasn't enough. . . our neighborhood party is tonight! That's right. . .
it's the never ending holiday!
