OctoberNESS

I love this time of year!

I am not a crafty person at all.  I have no vision.

However, I am very pleased to say that I made this!  Katey and I had craft night and it was so fun!

Kyle even helped by sanding the Os.  Hobby Lobby didn't have any left so I broke a g in half.  Good thing he is patient with how picky I am.

I went with my family to Hee Haws corn maze and got to see more piglets at the farm! I also learned that goats eyes are rectangular and that freaks me right out to even look at them!
Kyle even got me to come deer hunting with him this year!
1. Because it wasn't freezing
2. Because it wasn't before the sun ever came up and
3. Because I got to go on a 4-wheeler ride
I'm pretty sure it was the first time I have ever even seen a deer during the hunt.

THEN we got to go to the Strangling Brothers Haunted Circus with Whitney and Preston.  My friends used to always make me go first in the hanted house.  I am the leader cause I don't get scared, but now I make Kyle go in front.  They are so much fun when other people get scared!  My favorite is still Frighmares at Lagoon.

I also learned that one can of pumpkin makes like 5 loaves of pumpkin, chocolate chip bread.  It's so yummy!  Why buy it at Kneaders when you can make it?

I also love the tradition of SPOOKS!  I tried to get it going in our neighborhood and it got passed around a little bit.  I would be a horrible robber though cause I don't know how to get away.  I honestly was scared to get caught when I doorbell ditched our neighbors.  Kyle thought I was crazy, but don't worry, I never even got caught!  I am so sneaky.

  We carved pumpkins with Jon and Sydney.  I did the cleaning and Kyle did the carving.  We are such a great team!  Mosly I just put all the guts from my pumpkin inside of his when he wasn't looking.  Then we baked the pumpkin seeds for a seasonal snack :)

I was a little bummed that Kyle and I didn't have better costumes to wear.  I just put on my footie pajamas with pigtails.  Halloween was so fun though!!  Next year we will plan better in the costume department and hopefully not have to go to class that night!

I made witches brew and a bowl of dirt for our halloween party!  We had some friends over for a halloween dinner. Soup in breadbowls and homemade carmel apples for dessert.

We ended the night watching the classic Hocus Pocus! I first learned what a virgin is by watching that movie.

I think we had a total of 5 trick-or-treaters, but it was definitely a festive night full of fun!
