walk in the park.

Pictures from a walk to my favorite park in Brigham City on Halloween. 

The photo above is one of my favorites. It just screams childhood! Pure joy on Katie Anne's face.

 It makes me miss Taylor a little bit too.

Don't act like you're not jealous of me posting about Halloween over a week late. Don't!

The Saturday before Megan hosted a party at her new house. It was so fun & Meg decked it all out! I forgot to pull out my camera until the party was pretty much over, so I only got pictures of T & me.

Tyler went as a certain former N'Sync member, I was a witch. Not my best year for creativity, but what do you do?

I loved these Frankenstein cupcakes.

Halloween night:

Halloween is Roxy's birthday! She asked me to put a hat on her & sing. 

I carved a pumpkin. I wanted Tyler to help me, & he said "why do people always make you do stuff you don't want to on holidays? Holidays are for doing what you want!" 

So I took care of bid'ness.

I was so proud I had to get a picture with it.

Maybe I shouldn't be so proud? (it's a bird with a hat on it... you can't really see the outline)

In between trick-or-treaters Roxy asked if she could wear my hat. 

After trick-or-treating we went back to my hous, hung out with Cat, Amy & respective boyfs. We watched Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes. I thought it was more funny than scary, but entertaining nonetheless!

Hooray for fun nights!

I celebrated the crap out of this holiday, & I was 100% ready to say adieu. Until next year spooks!

Happy Weekend!

The time is here to celebrate the ever anticipated Halloween! What is everyone doing?We're going to a costume dinner party on Saturday & carving pumpkins. Not exactly sure what I'm dressing up as, it's a hard decision.

Especially when you came out with this home run two years ago:



You've probably seen this before on my blog, but I can't get over it. I look EXACTLY like Dana Carvey.

Which is disturbing on a lot of levels.

What is more disturbing than that, you ask?

I showed this picture to a girl at the Buckle, and her face blanked. "Who are you supposed to be?"

Have a spoooooky weekend!

The much anticipated witch party happened on Friday night! It was so fun.

My favorite 3 things:

1. Everybody dressed up. Even a little bit.

2. All of the candles/decorations.

3. Hanging out with a bunch of fun girls.

We had a spooky dinner, made caramel apples, chatted it up and listened to "Halloween Party" on Pandora. 

After everyone left, we tried watched Hocus Pocus. One or more people fell asleep for that portion.

But lets get down to the nitty gritty and wow your eyeballs with these photos.

THE SET UP:

THE WITCHES:

your hostesses

        

Catherine is such a model in this one!

yeah my shiny face & sad hat really throws this whole thing off.

check out that girl's sweet hat!

 Sarah you were such a cute witch!

Witch parties are great, because when else do you get together with 20 girls, dress up and have tons of funnin' around?!

See you next year, witches!!

in preparation...

So many halloween preparations at my house! We are actually having a witch party (tonight, woohoo), so the house is decked out to the max!! I will share some photos after the festivities so you can rejoice with me.

Here are a few things I've been working on:

Halloween garlands (I got the idea for the black bunting banner here)

 



The next two pictures are from our spoooky craft night, held at Brynn's new flower shop, Blooms & Co. You seriously need to get over there! Not only does she do amazing work with flowers, but she has tons of pretty decorations & jewelry. This is the place to get gifts for your girls this holiday season!

Lastly, I have really been working hard to get these taken care of. This is actually the second bag I've polished off so far. But I've been eating TONS of vegetables to counteract the sugar... no, no I haven't.

 

Bring it on, Halloween!

You stay classy San Diego

Just thought I'd welcome you this fine Monday morning with some of our Halloween pics!

We dressed up & went bowling with friends. Low key but SO FUN!! I thoroughly enjoyed talking into my mic. All night long.

Signing off- as Veronica Corningstone & her co-anchor Ron Burgundy

A few things Autumn.

My take on Autumn & Halloween

I love: dressing up, pumpkins, the treats, and the weather.

I HATE: scary movies, skeletons, haunted houses(it gives me indigestion), haunted corn mazes and candy bowls with electrical skeleton hands. What can I say, I'm a regular old ninny!

All of that aside, this is my first year ever decorating for fall, and this is what I've come up with so far in my li'l apartment.

a simple fall garland

My vase collection(from D.I.)... don't love the "welcome" sign, but I do love my roommates:)

...yes I still know that my photography skills are lacking.

I made this wreath for about 8 bucks!

... and finally, my entourage of diva pumpkins! notice the beauty mark on front & center there...

Happy Fall Ya'll
