For the Halloween weekend we went to Vernal. Saturday morning the girls and I went to our little friend Brinklee's baptism. There were eight kids total getting baptized and the chapel was packed. It was so good to see so many people supporting these little kids. The baptism went well and Brinklee was just beaming after it was all finished. What an awesome chance for my girls to see their friend be baptized. It won't be long before Makayla will be baptized as well. Brinklee's family invited us to a little luncheon afterward, but before we went to lunch we made a quick stop to see Grandma & Grandpa Sessions. I know we totally surprised Grandpa. They weren't expecting us so it was fun. We visited for a little while then headed over to the lunch where I got to visit with Brinklee's mother Jennie whom I haven't seem in a long time. And the girls had fun playing with Brinklee and her little sister Mckenzie.
After lunch we went back to Grandma Lawona's and carved pumpkins again. We had so many pumpkins that we didn't even get them all carved before we had to get all the kids dressed up. As it turned out we were planning on going to Trunk-or_Treat at Grandma's ward, but we were too late and by the time we showed up it was over. So, we went to Naples ward Trunk-or-Treat instead. After that we stopped at our friend Ms. Murch's house to surprise her. Which she was surprised to see us. She invited us to her ward party and after a quick stop at the Rec Center which was doing festivities. We went to Murch's ward Halloween party. The kids were able to trick-or-treat at the different tables. Murch was happy to see was happy to have someone there to visit with. When it was about over we headed to see a teacher of Kaloni's (and mine) who we told we would visit. She was handing out the big candy bars which the kids got really excited over. Then one last stop at G & G Sessions to end our night of Trick-or-Treating. The kids had a blast and couldn't wait to dive into their candy. However, since we didn't have dinner we said good-bye to G & G Sessions and headed out to eat. Our favorite restaurant was open and it was good to fill-up on something other than sugar. We visited with some friends that also stopped to eat there the headed home. Mom had the older three kids so Adam and I decided to make a quick stop at our friend Ann's house. She was also surprised to see us and Adam even scared her a bit when she came to the door. I visited with her while Jaxton explored, and Adam talked with Ann's grandson. It was so good to see her. Then we went home, got the older three kids in bed. Jaxton was on a sugar high and didn't want to calm down so Adam and I watched a movie my dad left for us to watch. It was called THE GHOST OF CANTERVILLE. The movie isn't that scary, but it is a good family movie. By the time it was over Jaxton was asleep and I was half-asleep so we went to bed. Sunday we came home. We had a great weekend visiting family and friends, dressing-up, and trick-or-treating.
