Halloween fun

Halloween was really fun this year thanks to two of our dear friends and their parties. Friday Oct 30th we went to a murder mystery dinner in Logan at Bryce and Tessa's house. It was pirate themed and so much fun. Wade and I had to borrow some of Bryce and Tessa's clothes b/c we forgot key parts of our costumes at home (i.e. wades shirt and pants and a shirt for me..) Wade as a pirate and I was a gypsy posing as a wench. It was alot of fun. Thanks Bryce and Tessa!

Oct 31st we went to Pat and Anna Lisa's house and had a wonderful time playing games and eating great treats. It was such a fun year. Thank you Pat and Anna

Ward party for Halloween

We made witch hats! Wade made the green ones and I made the orange ones. Both good =) Also not that these are not so much the best pictures of Wade and I. We both look a little crazy.

YUM!

Warning: this desert is not for the faint in heart (seriously it may kill you) BUT it is sooooo tasty.

This is a Chocolate Carmel Trifle. Last night we went to Brad and Jenny's and were in charge of bringing the desert. Wade and I had a similar dish at our friend Cameron and Erin's place and loved it. So thank you Cam and Erin for the idea. Here is our version.. YUM!

1 box devils food cake (made to pkg directions) cooled and cut into 1 in. squares
4oz cream cheese (whip the 4 oz with 8 oz of cool whip)
1 16 oz cool whip (halved)
1 jar Mrs. Richardson's Butterscotch Carmel.
1 large Pkg chocolate pudding (make to pkg directions or use 1/2 cup less milk)
candy of choice- we used Nestle Carmel treasures
a bit of Hershey's syrup

layer 1 cake maybe 4 in x 9in of the cake (1/4 of the 9x13 cake)
drizzle Hershey's syrup
spread half the mixture of cool whip and cream cheese on top of the cake
Drizzle with 1/4 of a jar of carmel
spread half of the chocolate pudding
10 chopped treasures sprinkled on top of the pudding

layer all layers again except the treasures

After the second layer of pudding take 4 oz of cool whip (or whatever looks pretty) and spread then drizzle with carmel and sprinkle with remaining treasures... mmmmmm so good.

I am so greatful for our Father in Heaven and the love for us. Wade and his scout troop (3 leaders and 2 boys) went out tonight for a camp out and were struck by lightning. Everyone is okay and alive. One of the boys is a staying overnight in the hospital because of the burn marks on his feet. The other boy was just released a little while ago and is feeling much better. Wade and the otehr leaders all were able to stay with the boys and administer first aid till the search and rescue were able to arrive. I am so greatful that Wade is still here with me. That it was His will to let him stay here with me a while longer. I will have more to come later.

Someone is excited for ski season to start...

Yep, this was taken yesterday September 5th, that is Wade and his little brother Tom sitting in our living room watching a ski movie with helmets and goggles on. I love it! They are so silly and cute. I just had to take and post pictures. enjoy!
