Anti-depressants

So my last post was unintentionally a little depressing. Every time I look at it....I want it gone. I could post about little Wally's first birthday or how our fantastic youth helped his family move away....but that isn't exactly uplifting :(

SO! Here we go. Who doesn't love to see people they love dressed up in costume?! Here's a little sample of our Halloween fun.

The ward party:
A few women came up to me and told me what a "trooper" Harland was for wearing this - like I had anything to do with his decision! I think he liked it when we kept calling him, "Kitty!"
 Harland called Allison "glamorously creepy"
Allison's rough & tough crew included a biker/rocker, a cowboy and a pirate
The Hills made the best cheerful pirates
Sully and his friend, Brother Oudadate...what a pair
The Jensen's were saving cute baby tigers - like Elise
The witchy woman and her friend with Bieber fever waiting in line for chili

Halloween Night:
Everyone was kind of over their costumes after the previous night's three party marathon (that's right, we skipped one), but I convinced them to costume up for a picture and a loop around the greenbelt to extort candy from the neighbors. Although, once wasn't enough for Nash. He came home, suited up in last year's Buzz Lightyear outfit, and hit the neighbors again. Gotta love him!
above: Dedan isn't a ghost or an angel. He's a white ninja! Big & little Sully stole the show everywhere they went and Emma (below) in her duct tape Astrid costume was ready to train some dragons.

Mater is not a race car

Our ward had their first Pinewood Derby this weekend. Each family got to enter one car. Har was inspired to create our own version of the beloved Mater...you know....from the movie CARS...in case you don't have Disney age kiddos. We worked hard.He looked good.

Even though we were eliminated after losing our first two races, we had a blast...good thing we're not a competitive family!

Ward Family Feud

Last week our fantastic ward activities committee planned a fun game night. Our neighbor/friend/committee member asked Har if he would head up putting together a big ole Family Feud board. He, Papa & Mike Kellerman took a whole day, but the end product totally rocked!Watching family members compete against each other...is it a reflection of their home life?
