Halloween...






...is always a fun time! This year was kind of weird..we had so much going on...we went to our ward Halloween party and got most of our trick or treating done then. Dylan was the guy from Scream, Samantha was Strawberry Shortcake, and Wesley was SHAMU..are we surprised? Not hardly! haha....and to find a Shamu costume, well not even Sea World had a costume, so it was up to my brain to figure that out..I think it turned out pretty good. And then the night of Halloween we made our families traditional homemade donuts. I made the dough, my Grandma Rotz cut them out and then my Mom fried them. This is the way to go..do one part and then someone else helps to the other parts...making donuts is something that I grew up with, with my Grandma Rotz, then my Mom, and now I do it for my kids. And they are yummy! After that we went trick or treating and we knocked on one street of homes, then the kids were done. Dylan was sick and stayed home and Samantha and Wesley were not that into it...not sure why. But it was fine by me! The next day was my cousin Doug Grover's wedding. He married the wonderful and beautiful Marla Gibson. We were so excited for them and spent the day doing that. Dave was the wonderful DJ for the reception. He did a great job for them! It was a busy weekend, but so glad to be with family and for my kids to spend time with their Great Grandma and Grandpa Rotz.
