Happy Thanksgiving

May your stuffing be tasty
May your turkey plump,
May your potatoes and gravy
Have nary a lump.
May your yams be delicious
And your pies take the prize,
And may your Thanksgiving dinner
Stay off your thighs!
I want to wish each of you a very Happy Thanksgiving. I know that I for one have a lot to be thankful for. I am thankful that I got my cards made and mailed out. Hopefully the post people did thier jobs and delivered them today, otherwise they are late. I am Thankful that this post is not 3 months late. Like most have my posts have been. I am thankful for you my readers or Blog stalkers whichever the case may be.
Enjoy!

My amazing Birthday week

That's right I had a birthday week this year. Instead of one day to celebrate I had many. It started with the pumpkin patch, then on to Vernal for pumpkin fest. Tuesday we celebrated at work and I got a visit from Kollette and the kids. Then on Friday we went on the Haunted Railroad and Saturday was trick or treating and dinner at Brian and Kollette's. I got some great gifts too but spending time with the people I love was the best part.

Trick or Treating

I am just working to finish with all of the October posts before the Holiday tri-fecta hits. These slideshows are a fun way to get through lots of photo's fast. So my mom and i ANd Princess Sadie joined Kollette and crew for trick or treating on Halloween night. It was fun and Kollette made yummy sloppy joes for dinner. Here are some pictures from that night. Some are doubled over through the show so I could fill up the frames

I think I may have mentioned once or twice how much I love my job. This is ine of those reasons. We got to dress up on Halloween and had a costume contest. There were a lot of people who participated and it was a great day!

Halloween Cards

Despite being somewhat behind this year I did manage to make some Halloween cards. I was worried I wasn't going to get to these as Halloween drew near. I had schedule the Monday before Halloween off so I took some time that day after cleaning the house to make a few cards. Nothing fancy but at least got to make some. Once I had them made and was getting ready to send them out, I realized all my address' were gone because of the computer crash I had recently experienced so I panicked thinking I had no one to send them to. Luckily I found a few homes from thme and sent them on their way. Hopefully I cna owrk out the address situation before Christmas or no one will get a card from me.

I found the cutest Halloween paper at Country Lofts in Lehi. I think that store is among one of my favorite places for card making supplies. Second of course to Heartland Paper

Trick or Treat Street

We had great weather for Halloween for which I am grateful. We have been going to Spanish Fork's Tick or Treat street for a couple of years now and really enjoy it

Creeper train gets really creepy for Halloween

Provo Canyon » On a dark and eerie October eve, with a full moon reflecting off the Provo River, Heber D. Creeper greeted wary train riders as they prepared to board weathered 1920s vintage train cars for a ride from Vivian Park to who knows where.

Creeper, played by actor Gib Berry, sported wild eyes, pointed teeth and an evil grin. A narrator of sorts, he set the scene for our hour-long Halloween-themed train ride filled with ghosts, graveyards, werewolves and frightening sounds.

The Friday before Halloween Jared, my mom and I went up Provo canyon to ride the Heber Creeper. We did this once a few years back and had a lot of fun so we decided to do it again. Since Jared wasn't with me on Saturday when the family celebrated my birthday this was my Birthday activity.

Some spooky decorations. My camera does really well in the dark with no flash

Hot Chocolate, Cider and Hot dogs were sold

More Creepiness waiting to board the train

See tickets!

Heber D. Creeper

My mom wasn't too fond of him and he chased her around me for a quite a while

As it got darker it got colder, Brr......

We chose to sit in the open car and brought blankets. We were the only ones back there and it was nice.

Here are some spooks from one of the ghost stories that they were telling

She tried to steal my camera

The ghost train robbers. They hung out with us for awhile

Until they heard a werewolf was on board and they took off. My mom called them chickens, I think she was a little scared as well

The cave man

Scary girl. She asked me to rock her baby and when I went to get it she got up in my face and yelled at me. I told her she was rude

The old witch and her dead cat.

The Bride

She yelled at me for being late for her wedding

The funniest part of the whole night I think was when my mom scared a bunch of people waiting in line. We were coming back into the station and she was wrapped in a blanket, it was all dark and creepy and she stretched her arms out while opening the blanket and screamed. Quite a few people jumped.

It really was a fun night. Jared and I went to McDonalds after wards and had dinner then it was home again home again

I LOVE HALLOWEEN AND THE FALL
