Halloween was a big hit and tons of fun! We officially moved in to our new house October 23, thanks to Chris's hard work and big muscles. He took the day off of work and picked up our new couch, entertainment center, dining room table & chairs & fridge and set up all the furniture & unpacked alot of stuff before I even got off of work. We are still unpacking odds & ends and taking care of things around the house, like caulking places that were missed and putting up the mailbox and figuring out where we want everything to go, but it feels like home and it just feels natural to be there. We've met some of our neighbors, who are really nice, and we hope to get started on the yard work before it gets too cold so we can have grass in the spring. We love the quietness and our view of Utah Lake is amazing, especially in the morning when you can see the reflection of the mountains in the water and at night, when all the lights reflect off of it.
We were able to decorate the house for Halloween, only to take the decorations down a few days later, but it was a lot of fun and we can't wait to start decorating for our first Christmas in the new house! On Halloween, Amber & Matich came over to see the house and to put the final touches on Bostyn's cupcake costume. Margie came too, and while Amber was finishing the costume, Margie & I took the kids to 2 trunk-or-treats that were going on just down the street from our house. I just put on Bostyn's tutu from last year and everyone thought she was so cute! Noah played a tough-guy Power Ranger and pulled it off well. After the trunk-or-treats, Amber put Bostyn's costume on and did her hair and we headed to Daybreak for trick-or-treating. It was a nice night, but after about an hour the kids started getting really cold and wanted to be carried everywhere, so we called it a night and headed home to decorate our Halloween cupcakes. We didn't do them super cute like last year, but we used the Halloween candy the kids just got to decorate for Noah's and sprinkles for Bostyn's.
Amber worked super hard on Bostyn's costume and deserves lots of credit! Here's a good picture of Bostyn in her costume, one with the cherry on top and one without, because the cherry didn't last very long!
And here is one of Noah!
I hope everyone had a great Halloween!
