'10 Halloween

I hate Halloween. It's full of gross costumes, gore, and such dark wickedness. There just never seems to be anything pleasant about it. But this year changed those thoughts! We have the trunk or treat on our street each year, and the Madsen's are known for giving out our "famous" popcorn. Mom prepared this year by starting popping popcorn early, Sunday evening. Haha our house might permanently smell like popcorn. Well the kids came around, darling costumes! We had skunks that were tired and just sat in the middle of the street, horses that were so stinking cute, Lady Gaga (could have lived without her), Obama (no comment), and so much more. The tiny kids are my favorite. Cute, modest, and warm costumes. That's what Halloween should be all about. I was a butterfly Princess. =) Well after the trunk or treat I was glad to attend Prince Charming to a Halloween party full of movies, Phase 10, dancing, and treats. It was so much fun! I am so grateful for Halloween's like this one. It has been a very long time since I have enjoyed a Halloween night. Thanks to everyone!

Must be genetic...

My dad, all his brothers, and my sister love to ride motorcycles. It must be in their genes. Mom and I have too much anxiety to enjoy it, but here are some cool shots of their last ride before winter.

Luckily my dad and Caitlyn are not dare devils, yet at least, I hope they are all safe while they enjoy their hobby together. Looks like fun, but mom and I like watching football snuggled by the fire, drinking hot chocolate. =)

Cutie!

All summer long we have watched our little friend named Chuck grow up. He is adorable. We would go to wal-mart once a day just so we could drive by and see him. Chuck always brought a smile to our faces whenever we passed by. Well the little pumpkin patch down the street from wal-mart had Chuck outside for us to "pet". Isn't he cute???!!!!

We love Chuck!!! Cutest baby animal we have ever seen.

Bowling!

Well Jared and I had two group dates on Saturday. Oh man it was fun. We started the day out with two games of bowling in Lehi with Tyson and Ashley, Brad and Caitlin, Jared and I. Our first game was not so great, second game was much better! We had so much fun, wearing our fashonable bowling shoes, laughing, and striking out!! Way fun day date. =)

Bowling was great, thanks Jared for the date, and Tyson for letting us join your group! It was a blast. After bowling we had my cousin Sam and her date Cole come over to my house. We made cookies, had ice cream and watched Tangled. It was a great day! =)

Conference!

I love conference weekend. I am so grateful for the spirit, knowledge, love, and guidance we receive from the servants of the Lord through music, prayers, or talks. The talks were wonderful, and so many answers to my own personal questions came through this weekend of inspired words. I am so grateful for our prophet, and the gospel in my life. I am so very excited for the new Provo Tabernacle Temple it's going to be beautiful. The gospel is spreading, and the love is deepening. I am so grateful for Heavenly Father and his plan of Happiness. I am blessed to be a part of it. God loves us.
