Happy Halloween

Halloween was not just on Saturday for us we celebrated it for three days! On Thursday night we had the traditional Sevy Halloween party hosted by Eric and Mare! It was a lot of fun to see everyone dressed up especially all our nieces and nephews, they all looked so cute and had the best costumes! Alan and I are always trying to think of a crazy costume that will surprise everyone so this year we decided to be snuggie's! This was an easy costume and we were able to just throw it together and we both secretly wanted a snuggie so it was a great investment!

They are really comfortable and we thought we were pretty funny! The party was a lot of fun and the food was great! I also won the game for the best toilet paper mummy but it wasn't really fair because I was the only one with three adults in my group! haha On Friday night we got together with my family to do our annual pumpkin carving. My parents are currently remodeling their house so they couldn't have their annual Halloween party but Halloween would not be the same without my mom's chili so we had her chili for dinner which was amazing!! I swear it gets better every year. We then carved pumpkins which is always fun but also gross for some reason mine had less seeds and more guts!

Then we frosted Halloween cookies and had several one armed ghosts..whoops! My sister and I also did our annual dance to thriller which is always fun but we are no Michael Jackson.

My niece dog got all dressed up and looked Fabulous! She hated her costume but she looked so adorable I am so lucky to have such a beautiful niece doggy!

On Saturday we went to the Blackout Utah football game and luckily during the second half the Utes finally scored some touchdowns and won the game! Marianne made these really cute black beanies with red flowers special for the game. They are so incredibly cute and looked great! She is so talented and creative! Thanks for the cute hat Marianne!

We had a good three day Halloween and loved spending it with our family!! Hope you all had a good one!

Viva Las Vegas!!!

A few weekends ago we headed down to Vegas for the UNLV vs. Utah football game. Luckily we were on fall break so we were able to go for a couple days. We went down with Eric and Marianne and it was such a fun trip. It was my first time in Vegas since I turned 21. The weather was sooo nice and we were able to lay out by the pool and enjoy the warm sun. We stayed in a really nice condo that had several different pools and unfortunately the first pool we decided to jump into was about twenty degrees and freezing!! We did lots of walking up and down the strip and going into the different casinos. We also went and looked in the fabulous shops at Caesar's Palace which was fun but can anyone really afford those places?? I really wanted to go to a dance club while we were there so Friday night we all got dressed up and went to TAO. It was probably one of the best nights in my life! It was so fun and the club was so cool we had such a fun time dancing and just hanging out with KIM KARDASHIAN!! That's right!!! Kim was there celebrating her birthday and it was so cool! The club was so fun and worth every penny! We also did some gambling, I was not as successful as I was in Wendover. Vegas was not very generous to me or Alan. Thanks to Eric we got our lucky streak and won some of our money back haha! Saturday we went to the football game and the Utes kicked those Rebels butts!! It was a good game and they won! We had such a fun trip and it was a nice weekend get away! Thanks Eric and Mare for a fun trip and all you do for us! We can't wait for our next trip!! WHHHOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!
