Halloween

As some of you know, David isn't a huge fan of Halloween.  I didn't used to be, but I feel like I have to put more of an effort into holidays for Asher's sake!  I talked about this with the girl that cut my hair.  We both never would dress up or make a big deal out of holidays, but once kids come along it makes it more exciting and you feel like it's your duty to make holidays great!  Since I didn't just want to sit in our apartment doing nothing that weekend, I decided to head up to Idaho so Asher could enjoy some time with his Mitchell cousins and grandparents.  We had such a good time!  I was very proud of Asher's outfit and was glad to show it off.  Both of my sisters did very well with their costumes as well and we were quite the spectacle wherever we went!  It is a lot colder there than it is in Utah, so we froze a little (especially on that first day!) but it was all worth it.  Here are some pictures of our weekend!

The first day we were there it was VERY windy and cold!  No one could see our costumes because of the coats and we couldn't wear our ears because the wind kept blowing them off!

Asher was very confused all during Halloween.  He couldn't understand why he (and everyone else) was dressed so weird!

Asher's favorite part of the festival!  He was so sad when we had to get off!

With the Rexburg cousins and a very grumpy Tinkerbell!

One of the Ewoks was melting a little...

London is normally so happy and smiley, so it was very comical to see her have a little tantrum!

Peter Pan and Tinkerbell

With the new Star Wars movie coming out there was a lot of Star Wars themed stuff around.  It fit in nicely with Lisa's family!  Han Solo, Leia, and the Ewoks!

Mickey and Minnie!  We had so much fun!

That night we all went to Lisa's house to watch a movie, eat pizza, and see all the cute trick-or-treaters.  Lisa was very busy answering the door, and Asher decided he needed to help her.  Every time someone would come to the door, he would help her answer, look at the people on the porch, and when they took a candy he would take one too!  Then he would take it downstairs to Grandma so she could unwrap it for him because he knew Mama would limit the number of candies he could have.  I guess that's the great thing about Grandmas!  On Sunday we went to church with Joni (where I'm sure anyone sitting around us got nothing out of Sacrament Meeting with Asher, London, and Ledger being the squirmy toddlers they are!) and headed back home.  I think it all worked out well.  David got a quiet, relaxing weeked and Asher and I got to dress up, attend a fun festival, and eat lots of candy!
