Halloween

Ivy is such a "solid" girl we had to take pictures of her costume back in September- and I totally forgot about them! (I've learned my lesson not to buy her costumes a year in advance) So here's our cute little flower fairy!

We had a super fun Halloween. I didn't want too much candy in the house (we still have candy from last year) so we decided to go trick-or-treating in our very child deprived neighborhood. My plan ended up backfiring- even though we only went to ten houses, everyone gave Hyrum a huge handful of candy. He ended up getting a huge haul! There's one happy boy!

I've just discovered an amazing trick for a bad day: acquire a bucket full of assorted candy, bring it slowly to your nose and inhale deeply, the smell will immediately take you back to a time of no worries, no responsibility, and no love handles. Try it!
