This year for Halloween, we thought we were going to get away with not finding a costume. Not so. Our ward did a Halloween party with a costume contest. We knew we weren't going to win with our last minute thrift store and hot glue costumes, but we knew we would stick out more if we didn’t dress up. We were the best (only) house hold objects there!!!

Benjamin did a great job at the Doughnut on a string competition. He was the first one to get the doughnut off the string, but our friend Skylar was the first to swallow. So, its debatable who won.
On Halloween day, I had to work until 8, but Benj came home early to greet all the many trick-or-treater’s. After I got home, our friend from India, Mintu, and his wife and daughter came over for homemade doughnuts. They brought their own version of doughnuts. They were made from lentils and were savory. They were DELLICIOUS.
We try to make the most of our Holidays, because it’s the time we miss our family the most. We are grateful for such good friends and neighbors who make it easier to be away from family on holidays.

We've been missing you two extra lately! The holidays are not the same without you. And I must admit, I laughed out loud at the costumes. So clever :)
