Last Friday we went to a really fun Halloween party in the neighborhood. Our Sweet cousin Staci watched our kids and stayed the weekend. A the party, WE had a good time playing games, eating food, getting to know others in the ward, and laughing about it all! I am a classy Pat Benatar! I guess! Jim is staff from the show "The Office"
*Tuesday was the annual Light's On activity for my job. It is a district wide event. I have spent several hours getting it ready including shopping for over 15000 pieces of candy, getting donations for the raffle, storing it all at my school and so forth.
Waiting to win the WII!
The age Pre K - #rd GRade winners! I love Mario and Luigi!
The day came... we had over 700 people there. There was a trick or treat, costume contest, raffle, and chaos. While the kids trick or treated they were given a paper to fill out as a family. The paper had ? about afterschool and such. They entered as a family that paper into a raffle. There were movies, gift certificates, tents, sporting equip, candy, ... and a WII. It was a crazy night, we ran a little long, but there were few complaints except when the girl who one the Wii yelled "WAHOO NOW I HAVE 2".. yeah it wasn't good but it was fair.
THAT night my legs were numb, my feet have never ached so bad in my life but it's over!!!
My kiddos came and loved it!
On Thursday we had a small party here at our house. Thanks to Lyndi for pulling it all together. It was great! Some people dressed up and there are pic here http://www.lyndibonefam.blogspot.com/ We had food, played games and just enjoyed company! I was lame and didn't dress up, I was too tired.
HALLOWEEN DAY!!!! WE got up, got dressed into costumes, and headed out. I took JO a sweet beautiful Cinderella to school, then came home got Ryker all "dogged" out and then we went to JOs school for her parade. Since her pre-school is in a elementary we got to experience waiting for the parade. It was fun. I stayed with JO at her school while Jim took Ryker home. It was fun being we her at school, trying to help out. The kids made eyeballs for snack with frosting, vanilla wafers, gummy savers, and choc chips. They then had some dirt cups, and the kids wouldn't eat them until they new it wasn't real dirt and had it stirred in. THEN they had a special visitor, no not SANTA, not a WITCH, but a DOGGIE. The teachers sis brought in her doggie dressed as underdog, to do tricks for the kids. THey LOVED IT!! all in all it was a good day!

HALLOWEEN DAY
When Jim was with JO that day and I was working and Ryker Sleeping they decided to carve the Big Pumpkin my mom brought over the night before! Well Jo didn't want dad to cut it, so... they drew on it instead. It was funny because they had to take turns on who got to display there drawing. So they would turn it around through out the night!
*Funny story about how this pumpkin came to us.. My mom was driving around in her orange HHR and this lil boy was selling pumpkins at a corner. He yells "Hey pumpkin car come buy a pumpkin!" so she did!
Jims!
HALLOWEEN NIGHT!!! Well I got home from work, tried to make some dinner and off we went around the neighborhood. Jo and Ryker loved trick or treating and saying thanks.

****MY FAVES OF THE NIGHT****
*Jo said would tell the people that answered the door. "I am Cinderella, Ryker is a dog, my Dads a football player. .. but then at one house she says and my Mom is??? MOM... um...WHAT ARE YOU?"
*Ryker learning to say"TWEAT" & "Tanks" at the doors. He was soo cute and polite.
*The weather was great!
*Going to Lehi and seeing all the family! We just love being at the grandparents houses! At the Herberts Jo got a princess puzzle, Ryker got a new matchbox car and I got to eat a huge bowl of mom Herberts homemade potato soup!
