Conference Weekend and a Halloween preview!!
For Conference weekend this year we headed up to Park City with Matt's family to enjoy a relaxing weekend. We arrived on Thursday night and had the Condo all to ourselves until the following day. There were so many beds the kids couldn't decide where they wanted to sleep.
Sammie loves spending time with Grandma Brenda and her aunt Kim. They include her in a lot of big girl things. Sammie got to help make dinner while we were up there and thought she was pretty neat stuff.

Saturday night, Matt's Aunt Lori and her family came up to hang out while the men went to Priesthood session. While the men were gone, we gutted and cut faces into the kids pumpkins. Eston was so excited and loved pulling out all the guts and seeds. He is in this big "self" (do it myself) phase. Sammie would only touch the outside of the pumpkin. The inside of the pumpkin was too gross and she couldn't believe everyone would get that dirty. I ended up working on Sammie's pumpkin.

The kids had a lot of fun and the Pumpkins turned out really cute. I'm glad Grandma Brenda brought pumpkins, because I don't think my kids would have gotten to do this otherwise.

Halloween is going to be crazy at our house this year. The twins will only be about 2 days old and we might still be in the hospital. So I have tried to get the kids' Halloween costumes put together so they are ready for the 31st. Sammie has decided that she wants to be a Bride. My sister, Lindsay, was great and took the time to make Sammie a veil and a bridal bouquet. Sammie is so excited.

Matt and I decided that we were going to try and use what we had around our house for costumes. Eston was going to be a cowboy again this year. I only needed to acquire a hat. However, when his uncle asked him what he was going to be for Halloween, Eston excitedly said, "Superman" while he was holding his arm in the air. Eston has never really watched Superman are seen Superman (to my knowledge). He has a Superman/Batman costume, but he only uses the Batman side. We quickly had to come up with a Superman costume. It turns out the only thing that I need to buy at this point for Eston's costume is RED underwear to put on top of the blue thermal underwear. How often does a little boy get to wear TWO forms of underwear in public for all to see. Eston is pretty excited.

As for the TWINS, Baby girl will be a cat and Baby boy will be a ghost.

I will post a pic of them all together, hopefully, around Halloween. If not then you didn't miss out on the fun costume party.
