Happy Halloween

Growing-up I would have never imagined living in another state from my family. Well, here I am doing just that. We will establish most of our family while living here in Flagstaff and some of the most special memories we share were created right here, too. There are times when we both miss our families.  It gets lonely and sometimes we feel forgotten, but it's in those lonely times that Jesse and I become more united and grow closer together as a family. Because of our newest edition, Travis, we are going to stay home this year for the holidays. We've been married for 3 1/2 years and we are just now starting to form our own holiday traditions. We're a little late, but it's never too late to start.

For Halloween, we had a few parties that we went to on Saturday night, but the real fun started on Sunday. We had our very own family Halloween party. Landon and Travis were both sick, which was kind of a bummer, but we still had fun. We played the powdered donut game. Landon cheated and used his hands. Then we watched The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Landon normally isn't allowed to watch movies so he was pretty captivated with it. We couldn't even get him to look away from the TV.

On Saturday night we dressed Landon in his Halloween costume for the ward trunk-or-treat. He was so excited that we couldn't get him to stop running around the living room.  Landon was a pirate and Travis was a cute little baby.
