Halloween

Halloween is always a fun time. We love holidays. Every year we add a few more traditions. Halloween is not complete until we -

• see the witches at Gardner Village.

• go to the pumpkin patch/mini corn maze at the nursery on 7th East and about 8800 South.

• carve pumpkins (of course)

• cruise past our favorite outdoor decorations (the kids favorite is the "dead guy", a house in Holladay has a coffin propped up against their house with a body in it. Last year, the body had a knife stuck in it with lots of ketchup around it and he was the "bloody guy." This year he's just the dead guy.



• this year we added some new traditions. Mindy and Ryan invited us to an orchard on 7th East that had free tractor rides and showed "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!" outside on the side of a truck. We also took milk jugs and drew faces on them and stuck Christmas lights in the back of them and presto-light up jack-o-lanterns!

Noah was a cowboy for some of his parties and events and a pirate for others. London was a witch. Summer was Curious George. Dave had a yellow outfit and was the man with the yellow hat. Tee had a princess dress when she helped out at London's school party.
