THE YELLOW PAGES

For Halloween last month, Rosie, Missy and I dressed up as the Yellow Pages! We got the idea from our Page grandparents who did it years ago. People, of course, didn't get it right away but we ended up winning funniest costume. I designed the t-shirts online but we couldn't find yellow pants (I'm gonna be honest, I was not excited to wear yellow pants so I didn't look too hard!), so we got these ugly yellow hats that were way too big instead. My definition of a Halloween costume is something you would not normally wear so those hats were perfect. We even painted our fingernails yellow!


The shirts say "I've got your number...want mine?"
They also say "Page" on the back for people who didn't know us.



We also made some fun Halloween treats but I don't have a picture of all of them. Missy made Jack-O-Lantern cheese balls. She used bell peppers to cut out the eyes and mouth so it looked like a pumpkin. Rosie decorated a few dozen cupcakes to look like webs with spiders or pumpkins or witches. I made little smokies wrapped in crescent roll dough to look like mummies.

Halloweenies!

Love you!

Pumpkin Carving

Our singles ward had a big pumpkin carving activity a couple weeks ago. Lance and I were trying to thing of something "really cool" and some how we came up with the idea to carve a Tee Pee. I think it was "Intense" (get it? "in tents"??!!)It morphed into a huge bonfire, tee pee, Indian playing a flute. Then I insisted the Indian have a squaw. So the second figure with the "X" is the girl Indian and that is a bow in her hair!!


Lance and I proudly posing with our creation!


That was a fun night. But I think I am all done with Halloween. (I know it hasn't even come yet) But thats all I needed. Now I am listening to Christmas music and dreaming about the perfect Thanksgiving ever!! :)

Love you Granny too snelda!! I can't wait to see you!
