Halloween 2011

So Halloween was kind of a dud at our house this year :( Not because I didn't get the costumes done, not because Michael had to work (he actually had the day off) but because Michael and I came down with the FLU!! Not the stomach flu but the achy, yucky, just want to sleep flu. Our boys were not neglected in the candy department however, the Great Pumpkin came after they went to bed and brought them each a small basket of candy because they didn't get to go trick or treating. We actually had the most trick-or-treaters at our door this year and we were just no fun. I was disapointed becuase we had a great matched theme this year- Nathan wanted to be Capt'n Hook with the hook and mustache- so I made Ammon Smee :) Here is a pic of the boys all dressed up at the library.

We did get some pumpkins cut before Michael and I crashed on Sunday :)

Amon didn't know what to think but Nathan just jumped right in! We let them paint their pumpkins and I learned the sad way that Dollar Tree finger paint does NOT come out of clothes :( but at least we had some fun!

It seems that I just can't stay healthy- last week I got food poisoning and that kept me home from church for a day of recuperation. Today is our primary program so I am a little nervous- I have never been in the Presidency before and I haven't done one in quite a while!!

We are taking Ammon to Casper tomorrow to have his ears and hearing checked and we hope they will schedule a date to put some tubes in. The poor kid has had 9 ear infections since March!

I am a little anxious but hopeful that it will be a good visit and productive.

Hope you all are having a great Sunday and have a great week!!!
