Adam and Amber came to see us on Halloween, and joined us in all the festivities (lucky us!)
First on the list; pumpkin carving. All Caden wanted to do for weeks was carve a pumpkin. Well, I didn't want to take on three kids and pumpkin carving alone. So I made the boys wait until Saturday when Josh, Adam, and Amber would be here to help us. Unfortunately, I also waited on buying a pumpkin, and apparently if you don't buy your pumpkins early in Vernal, there won't be any left! So after our futile search for pumpkins, we ended back home.
Second; popcorn balls. I was really sad that we wouldn't be able to spend Halloween in Ogden this year. (This is new for us, not spending every holiday with the Roberts or Chambers.) So I wanted to do something fun, something nostalgic. I decided we would make Grandma Buck's popcorn balls. I loved it! And I think the other's did as well. It was a sticky mess! (Thank goodness, Josh and Adam did all the dirty work!) But it was fun and the kids loved eating them.
Third; trunk or treat! We ended up going to my great uncle Lynn's ward trunk or treat. It was really great of him to invite us, and I didn't have to cook dinner so it was a definite win-win. The boys really seemed to enjoy it. It was perfect timing, we just finished visiting all the trunks right as the storm blew in. Then we enjoyed watching a movie at home til bedtime! It was great!
Love love it!

This has been my favorite Halloween! It was just good quality time as a family, and it was really nice to have Adam and Amber with us! Oh.. and don't forget the popcorn balls!
P.S. Capitalization just for Miriam and Chels!
