Kid Time- Halloween Fun

Saturday was our Halloween Fun Kid Time. We had a great turn-out and everyone had a lot of fun.

Alyssa broke out in an allergy attack in the morning, right after I put her makeup on (once again to look like a hung witch). She started to puff up, so I gave her Benadryl. She fell asleep on the way to work and crashed in Ben's chair as soon as she walked in the door.

Oct. 24th- A Spooky Good Time

We had our little Halloween party on Friday night. The kids each invited two friends. We had pizza, chocolate cake, root beer and popcorn. We ate and then watched Mr. Boogedy. They all had a blast.
Alyssa's friends are as weird as she is. And yes, Alyssa is kissing a plastic rat. She calls it her boyfriend and sleeps with several of them in her bed. Craaazzzyy.



Alyssa is a very odd girl. She's a witch that got hung in case you were wondering what her costume is :)



I always get anxious about having people we know from school over to the house I live in now. It seems that so many people at our school have a LOT of money and HUGE houses. I like my little house and as ghetto as it is, I'm soooo grateful for it, but still it's hard since we came from a bigger, nicer house. Anyways... I told myself that they're kids, they'll have a blast and won't even notice the house and if their parents do... who cares. So... Alyssa had a friend walk home with her and when I got home from work, Nina took me aside and said Alyssa's friend told them "I feel really bad for you guys." When Nina asked why, she looked around and said, "You guys live in a really small house." Nina told her that we like our house and we don't care if it's small. Her reply was, "I live in a big house." Hhhmmm. Then one of Caleb's friends made a comment about our small house. That combined with the fact that I've lived in my ward for a year now and sit by myself almost every week in Sunday School and Relief Society makes me think maybe leaving Utah wouldn't be completely horrible.

Camera Crazy

I had the camera out taking pictures of the food we were eating... hehehe. I'm addicted to food pictures... too bad I don't have a good camera to actually get good food pics, but anyways, I snapped a couple pics of us. Ken isn't as camera happy as I am :)

I look very crappy, but oh well... I still think they're fun pics.

Stupid Snake

I'm pretty sure this is the same sneaky snake I booted out a couple of days ago. Good thing Ken was here to save my life and catch him. Ken took him all the way across the street and chucked him in a field. If he comes back again I'll chop him up!!! Just kidding... that's yucky. But I did yell at the snake and tell him if he ever comes back I'll kill him :) Maybe he'll be scared and stay away.
