Halloween day and night




We had a fun Halloween, even though we missed Trunk or Treat... We decided to go to Antelope Island and watch the Bison be herded. It was a great day. We packed a lunch and spent the day touring and seeing the ranch. The kids got to climb trees, practice roping the stationary cows, see bison, hike, tour the old buildings and be with family, which was the best part of the day. We didn't know it at the time, but Curt's nephew, Chris, was there herding the bison and had a close call with one of them. It is a beautiful place, even though it looks like the desert in parts.( Not that desert's aren't pretty, they really are!) I would like to go and have a painting day there.

We got back in time for the kids to get on their costumes and Trick or Treat. It was a great holiday! We have too much candy left over, but it won't take long to go through it. I believe it is ok to have those little candy bars, you can't count them as a whole one, so you really aren't cheating when you eat one!!! I just had such a great day, I hope we can do more things like this with the family!

Looks fun! P.S. I do have my painting! It is now displayed beautifully--it was the one with purple flowers (don't know what they are called...:)
