Halloween is over!! Now we can get on to the real holidays! Can you tell how much i dislike Halloween? This year was much better than in the past because Grandma Ramey took care of all the costumes! Took all the stress out of it for me! We did the trunk or treat at church on Thursday and trick or treating on base on Friday. In all the chaos I did not get pictures on Friday but the ones I do have are from Thursday. Friday would have been nice because Curtis was able to go on his own with friends this year and they were all dressed up and looked cute! (In a 14 yr. old way anyway) Jerika and Wyatt started out with us but ended up just meeting us at the house at the end. We can get away with that living on base. We started a new tradition that I hope we can keep up. We had friends over and Curtis and Jerika had some friends here after trick or treating and we had scones and hot cocoa. The kids goofed off outside playing basketball and capture the flag etc. Our friends left at after a bit and the kids stayed until I begged for mercy at 11:30 pm. I was falling asleep and they all had to leave. We all agreed that we would like to do it again next year! Just a little about the costumes.... Jerika looked gorgeous in her long black witch dress and my two litte ones Clarissa and Abigail were just tickled about their Little Red Riding Hood and Little Bo Peep costumes or should I say "outfits". Clarissa kept saying Abby was "Little Boy Peep". It was very cute in her two year old way of talking. Wyatt was happy about having something with a sword and Curtis was happy to have something like a "real" costume instead of trying to come up with something made up with whatever we have around here. (He is so deprived)

  2. Hey I didn't know you blogged. Glad that you found me. We ended up doing kind of the same thing after trick-or-treating. We did scones, cider, and hot chocolate. Funny! I think I got to bed earlier than you =)

Nik's Favorite Scripture

Remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall.
Helaman 5:12

Phil's Favorite Scripture

Yea, verily, verily I say unto you, if all men had been, and were, and ever would be, like unto Moroni, behold, the very powers of hell would have been shaken forever; yea, the devil would never have power over the hearts of the children of men.
Alma 48:17
