haLLoween! =]



one of the main reasons that i love fall the most. halloween weekend was super fun. i spent friday hanging out with my grandma, which was nice as always. saturday was the ward party- it was lovely. pumpkin carving and trunk or treating for the little kids. i won the "best fitting" costume award! kind of last minute, i came up with the idea to be a bum for halloween. little did i know the effect it would have... let's just say i was realllly convincing =]. i look back at these pictures and i can't believe how disgusting i was all night. but it was a really good costume... it was fun to be the butt of every joke, haha. sam was a beautiful princess, and laura was charlie chaplin. it TOTALLY fit their personalities! we hung out for a bit and then we went to the straw maze. so, for those of you don't know how much of a scardy cat that i am... i'm probably the biggest one you'll ever meet. when i couldn't convince everyone to do something NOT haunted, i got dragged (literally) into the straw maze. i pretty much almost started crying and couldn't move forward without a friend attached to each arm and my head tilted down to the floor the whole time. no lie, i barely looked up. afterwords, my muscles were clenched and sore for a whole day. and i felt like a silly five year old. not even that... there were five year olds in there braver than me. i know that it wasn't even very scary but the mentality of being in a scary situation freaks me out. so, now that i've exposed a side of me that i wish had never been exposed, i can say that i successfully completed a haunted corn maze. i'm so grateful for my amazing friends and for all the patience that they have for me.

i'm still trying to decide whether or not to live in rexburg (if so, which apartment complex?) or IF and which job I should take. there are so many options. i wish life came with an "easy" button. but then, i guess, it wouldn't be called life.

55 days till christmas! =]
