Loving the madness...: Halloween Happenings

We had a busy week or so surrounding Halloween. We made our first trek to a place called Corn Bellys, which claims to have one of the biggest corn mazes in the country. Tip for anyone headed into a corn maze...make sure you take water and remember to sunscreen if it's a 75 degree sunny fall day. It will make the experience much more enjoyable!
We also went to Garden After Dark up at Red Butte Garden, which we do every year. We met up with a bunch of folks and the posse of kids went wild. It was fun. I just feel like I need tracking devices on my kids these days when we are in a crowd!
We hosted the 6th annual Dickey Pumpkin Carving Party last weekend. We had awesome weather and a big crowd of friends. We did more preparation ahead of time so I actually had time to mingle and eat and catch up with some people I haven't seen in much too long. I really miss our old Brookhill Drive neighbors.
Halloween was yesterday. It was a day full of costumes at school, parades and multiple trick or treating sessions that resulted in way too much candy sitting on my counter today! The kids loved running around with the neighbors for a bit, then we finished the night down the road in Grandma and Grandpa's neighborhood. Miles crossed paths with some new school friends and that was pretty fun. Good times!
