Halloweeng!!

Several weekends ago, our faithful visitors (you too can earn this title by visiting us >1 times.... :) ) Nate, Molly, Cannon, Noah, and Ev came down for our first ever Summerhays Halloween Party.

It wasn't so much of a 'party', but it was still so fun.

Both Christian and Cannon are crazy excited for "Halloweeng". Associate ANYTHING with Halloween, and Christian is immediately excited about it. Lentil Soup, Carrots, the wind blowing...etc. Its great.

Anyways. Our weekend:
Guests arrived at about 8:30 pm.

Chatting and crazy-almost-3yr-olds go rampaging.

Decorate Punkin cookies. (thus satisfying the almost-3yr-olds dreams of a Halloween Party)

Patrick comes home from the Gunnison Homecoming Football game. (at which they had FIREWORKS during halftime. Now, I came from a pretty well-off school district, but i certainly don't remember fireworks...ever. Hopefully all the build-a-bathroom-at-the-stadium funds are still in existence...)

Patrick expresses disgust that all the party foods have not been 'busted out' yet.

Chips/Nacho Cheese/Pop appear.

Everyone settles down for the you-tube showing of Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin and Disney's the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Half-way through the Legend, christian and patrick seem to be the only ones awake.

We persevere.

Guests sleep over.

Chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast. (delish!)

Then a wonderful Hike to the G.

And by 'hike' we mean 'walk'.

it was a Lovely, Lovely weekend.

Thanks guys!!!!!!

Man, the party STARTED at 8:30?! I'm almost asleep by this time! Sounds like a blast! I need family here to keep me young. I love that picture of Evan and Christian...I think I have the same one of him and Michael. What a great uncle!

Gunnison rocks. Check out that gorgeous city.

I still want to go on a REAL hike someday and check out the hills and mountains.
