Arches National Park

My family was driving to New Mexico on November 20, 2008. We were driving by Arches National Park when my parents decided it would be fun to stop and visit. We drove around for about an hour and a half.  We got out of the car twice to take pictures and hike to some of the arches.

Trick-or-Treat!

Friday was Halloween.  I didn't have school so we got to go to the gym and then have dinner at Oma's.  We made our own pizzas and frosted sugar cookies. I frosted the pumpkin and the ghost.  My cousins Emma and Aspen where there too. Then we went trick-or-treating at the neighborhood next to our street. I got A LOT of candy!

I was The Witch with a Twitch - from one of Oma and Opa's books and Carter was the Incredible Hulk.

Jack-o-lanterns!

For Family Home Evening we got to carve our pumpkins into jack-o-lanterns. They were really gross. Daddy helped Carter and me carve ours.   I loved watching daddy carve out the face on my pumpkin. Aunt Jessi came and helped Bree with hers.  

 I didn't like pulling out the pumpkin "guts."
