Halloween weekend


Friday October 30th was Nevada day, no school! So, we flew home for the weekend. Technically it was Ellie's 2nd Halloween, but she was only 2 months last year, so this year she got to dress up and go trick or treating.

Friday, daddy went to work and we got to play with Calli and Autumn. To bad I haven't figured out video's yet, cause we got a cute one of the two of them playing together. They enjoy being cousins!


Saturday we went to snow bird to enjoy the snow. She got to try sledding for the first time. I think she was okay on the way down, but when the sled stopped she wasn't to happy. I like to think it was from snow getting in her shoes and pants and it was a new experience, but what do I know, she can't talk yet :)
We also got to ride the tram up to the top of the mountain, she really liked that.





















Saturday was trick or treat :) We went to my parents house, my mom got a picture, I did not :( So hopefully when she sends them to me(wink wink mom) I can post them. We had a lot of fun. Went to a few houses I knew from childhood. Then we stopped at my best friends mom's house, and she happened to be there so that was a nice treat.
 Until I get photos of Halloween day, here are photos of when we got her costume in Sept.

 

























Sunday we flew out late, so we were able to spend sometime with my family. Ellie was watching the boys outside shooting the bi-bi gun. The door got opened and she tried to go out, tripping over the step and fell on her face. She ended up with a sore on her lip just like her mommy. But her's is just fine and healed great. Mine blew up like a balloon and looks like a big cold sore!  How did I get hurt? I was on the treadmill, feeling great! Closed my eyes, oh wait, duh, I need to hold on if I want to close my eyes, opened them to grab the handles and I was already off balance and biffed it! Rolled off like a piece of meat on a grocery converter belt.

thanks. It is pretty funny how I tripped :)

There isn't snow on the ground in the valley yet, although there had been days prior to our arrival. We had to go up into the canyon to play in snow, but it was fun :)
