Halloween Fun!

                                                 

Went to our annual ward carnival. It was a chili/soup, bread and pie contest. There was also a lot of fun games for the kids to play and plenty of friends to chat with. We enjoy being with our friends and family whatever holiday it is. 

Trick or treating at Grandpa Weyerman's. He loved everyone's costumes. 

Posing outside grandpas house. 

Making potions with our friends. We also enjoyed some homemade treats, games, zipline, and general fun together. Thanks to good friends.

We also had a birthday party with friends, made donuts, watch Coco (our spooky movie), painted pumpkins, went trick or treating to our friends houses, and enjoyed lots of fun and time together. Not much school was done on this day but lots of crafts, creativity and fun were had. 

 

Author Jennifer A. Nielson

Stetson got to meet the author Jennifer A. Nielson. She signed several of his books and he talked with her just before this photo. I wasn't fast enough to catch him talking with her. She gave an awesome presentation about being an author and what it takes to be a creative writer. She also answered a lot of questions that the youth had and even helped them do some creative problem solving. 

Everyone really enjoyed her enthusiastic attitude and contagious love for writing.  

we are now trying to read all of her books. 

Thankfully Stetson had already read several of her books and then was given a few of her books by me sister. Life is a series of interesting events.

He loves to make crazy faces for all of his pictures. 

Hailey and I love this shake that I make "Carob Smoothie". She decided that she would stack all of the ingredients up and I thought is was notable and artistic.
