this is halloween

This year was Brady & I's 3rd annual Halloween Party! Apart from Christmas, Halloween comes in a very close 2nd for me. I love dressing up, making festive treats, passing out candy, playing games, & throwing parties. This year I decided to make a photo booth & it was a hit! My sister Rach & I made some cute photo props & I made a fun backdrop! We played some fun games, but my most favorite is the donut eating contest.  I can never participate because of my food intolerances but watching, cheering, & photographing are just as fun! It's a very intense minute of eating. We always have fun chatting & eating too much sugar. This year I decided to include dinner along with the sugar high. I made White Chicken Chili & everyone said it was amazing! I love it when people enjoy my cooking :)

I took lots of pictures so I'll just post them all...there are infinity of Rose because I think she is the greatest thing since watermelon (that's saying something) so prepare to see a lot of that cute face. I managed to get shots of every couple except one who showed up at the end when we were winding down watching Amityville Horror.

Thanks for reading/looking

This is Janeen & a few of her friends. I met Janeen as "Sister Johnson" in our ward in Nashville where she was serving as a sister missionary. I fed her & her companion, Sister West, every week, then we would go out & teach! I had so much fun with them! Janeen finished her mission up 1 week after we left. She lives here in Provo & goes to BYU.




These are our friend Kaden & Haley. Kaden is B & I's age & we were friends in high school. Haley was a bit younger so I didn't know her in school, but now she is my bestie. She is also the hair stylist who always dyes my hair funky colors!




Over the summer Kaden sold pest control & this was one of the friends he made & his girlfriend.

& Rose in her cute Halloween outfit

This is B's brother Taylor, Megan, & their daughter Brooklyn.  OH, & the one cooking in the oven too!



This is Ali, one of my SIL's, Brady's sister

Here are some lumberjacks that needed a warm place to hang out for awhile...HA kidding, it's my sister & her husband Chanse, & Rose the cutest girl in the world. 

I can never have enough of this face! I LOVE HER!




Brookie & Rose wanted a little photo shoot too.



This is Jordan, we call him Ham. He's another one of B's brothers.


This is Violet & Dash Incredible (AKA: B & I). Dash was running around so fast the whole night that no one could even see him.

Even Rose has a good serious face.





This is Jon, Meghan & their cute little man Rugar. Their costumes were awesome. They were Darla, Bruce, & Squirt from finding Nemo!


First heat of the donut eating contest. 




Ham won.




Second heat of the donut eating contest. We made Ham do it again just to make sure he was the ultimate winner.....He was.




Brookie was cheering her dad on the whole time. It was so cute.




Brady did a good job picking our costumes & getting them together.  Another great Halloween party down! I'm already planning fun games & activities for next year. Maybe ill remember to take pictures of the decorations...maybe.
