Week of Halloween

I wanted to update my blog before now but Im a little behind and the last couple days were alot busier than i planned. On thrusday I had a girls night with all of my friends from high school. It was so great to see everyone and get together its amazing how crazy my life has been since high school and how easily it is to get out of touch. I dont know why we bought so many pumpkins


After the girls night we went and carved pumpkins at my parents house for Halloween the next night. My mom saw on Good Things Utah how to carve pumpkins with power tools. It was a blast and made the gutting process so much faster. I dont think we will ever do it the old fashion way again.
In case you cant tell, thats a mixing beater on the end!
I know we are hard core!

Halloween was interesting for me. I have always had some kind of party on Halloween and a reason to dress up. Except for this year it was a little different being married without any kids. Im sure everyone who is in this stage can relate there is not a whole lot to do. But we still had fun. Jake and I went Trick or Treating with Paige around the neighborhood until Chris and Jill came over with Caleb. He was a skunk for Halloween and i could not believe how "stinking" cute he was! Afterwards we watched my dads favorite of all times "Young Frankenstein" I personally think this movie is so boring and the black and white film makes me fall asleep everytime. But my dad loves the little dry jokes throughout the movie and always laughs his head off.




This is the back!

Saturday we went with some friends to Body World. Jake and I were so back and forth about going because it was so much money, but after going and seeing the whole exibit i would not have taken back the money for anything it was AMAZING! I have always been interested in how the body works and the little parts that make us who we are. The body is so complex there is no way of logically thinking how our body is the way it is. It is obvious that Heavenly Father is BRILIANT! One interesting fact i learned is that all of our arteries in an Adult body is equal to 60,000 miles long (long enough to be wrapped around the world twice) That is amazing!
Sunday night Jake and I went to Kam Hoskins dads viewing. His family is seriously amazing. Kam and I have been best friends for over a year now and the Hoskins family just blows me away they are so strong and have such great spirits it is obvious that Heavenly Father has been watching over them for years. It was so great to see Kam again and i wish him the best with the rest of his mission and cant wait to see him when he gets home for good!
