October RECAP!

I'm back! Woohoo!! Blogger looks different.... when did this happen? Eh, I'll have to mess with it later. Anyways- HELLO! We were pretty busy the past few weeks with Fall festivities and what not. We went to Gardner Village, Pack's Pumpkin Patch, hit up that new haunted house "Fear Factory" in SLC with a friend, oh and we went to Black Island Farms for the first time. So it's been a good time! Halloween was so much fun this year since Rock is older and actually has a reaction to things. Let's recap! Note: These piece of crap pictures came from my Blackberry since I can't find my camera. I just need to go buy a new one, it's driving me nuts!!

 Rock playing in a tube at Black Island Farms. That place is so fun! We had no idea about it or how cool it was until we went. I was happy with the amount of stuff they had for Rock even though he's still small!
 I think he was trying to get Rock to look at me? Not sure, but it's funny!
 This was taken while we were riding in the little train pulled by a tractor. We were hitting a lot of bumps and I caught his face right as he was going "Oooo!" It's a terrible picture, but funny!
 This is when we went to Gardner Village...... have you ever been there? It's too freaking cute. I love it.
 Taysom and Rockwell chillin in the strollers.
 Riding in the pumpkin cart while my lil bro Wyatt and his girlfriend, Adrienne pull him along! He LOVES Wyatt. He always yells his name. ALWAYS. I think it's because he hears my dad yelling his name all the time.
 Got his pumpkin! It was such a nice night. The past few years we have gone we freeze to death!
 Playing in the hay maze with Daddy at Pack's Pumpkin Patch in Farmington. My Dad's cousin owns the joint, we've gone there since the beginning of time.....
 Speaking of my Dad, isn't he cute? He posed for this and everything. Don't ask what my sister Shelly is doing.
 This is a cheeseball face I made for our Annual Taysom Halloween Dinner! Isn't it so gross?! Everything we ate had a creepy gross theme to it. It's lots of fun!! I'll post more pictures and go into more detail on how I made it later this week! I think.... I try and keep my word on that.

 Of course I dressed up at work on Halloween. I was Foofa from Yo Gabba Gabba!! Scotty was Muno, and Rock was DJ Lance Rock! My mom made Rock's costume and it is a spitting image of it. We love it! He refused to keep the hat and glasses on that go with it though. Oh, but I did get shoes from the DI and paint them like DJ Lance's! Gabba is such a weird show but I totally get why kids eat that stuff up! My kid is entranced by it.
 Went trick-or-treating down the street with my brother Kyle and his kids. Kambrie is so adorable! I just love her! And you can't see Ghandyn's costume but he was the guy from scream. Rockwell freaked out when he came outside with his mask on. It's funny and sad at the same time. He's sort of a wimp though. And I mean that in the most loving way. For example any railroad tracks we drive over, he whines. He just hates it! I think his tummy drops... but he just whimpers like "Mommmy!!" Did I already tell you that? I can't remember.

Me and Scotty took Rock again later when it was dark and it was so much fun! Like really, it truly was. We went out into some Hooper neighborhoods with Katie (Scotty's 10 year old sister) and a few of her friends. People get SO decked out, and we love it! We only went to the cool houses. There were about 4 houses that had an entire spooky walk-though before you got to the candy. I just liked seeing Rock's reaction to some spooky stuff. There is one thing above all that he can not deal with. Ghosts. I'm talking about ghosts made out of white sheets-- he pretty much screams and cried if he saw them or we got close.

We didn't have a problem with the girls until a guy at the last little walk-through whipped out a chainsaw!! Luckily, Scotty sat out with Rock on that one. But one of the girls is only about 6 and she was terrified. The guy had to come apologize and tell her it was pretend. Why wouldn't they warn us if we have someone so little with us?! Eh, oh well- it was Halloween and it was so fun!!

I'm sure you're bored by now, but thanks for catching up with me!

Sounds like a fun month!

But, you'd have to smoke crack to want to be anything from Yo Gabba Gabba ;-)
