Halloween Weekend

Last weekend was our traditional Halloween party with our friends at Bear Lake. We all stay at my parents cabin, carve pumpkins, play the dare game and watch a scary movie. This year was probably one of the best years ever! We had almost all of our friends there and had so much fun! Friday night we all played the game "things". After all laughing our heads off, some of the guys played poker while the rest of ous watched the movie SAW on Melissa and Brad Elders new "clearplay" DVD player. Most of us don't watch 'R' rated movies and can never find a good PG-13 movie that is acutally scary, so Brad and Melissa were nice enough to bring their DVD player that edits movies. So we got a couple of scary movies and just watched them in the clearplay so they were edited :) After that, most went to bed while others stayed up scaring everyone. The next night we carved pumpkins and played the dare game. We always try and have a little contest who can think of the most creative pumpkin. I thought Ryan's was pretty cool. He carved a fish with a hook coming out of his mouth, as you can see in the slide show, but we forgot to vote on whose we liked best. After a few pictures we started the Dare Game. This is a game where we all think of a dare, then you lay out a deck of cards face down on the table all spread out. You go around the table one by one and every picks up a card. Whoever draws the Ace of Spayed has to do the dare. Some of the dares were; walk through the graveyard alone, jump in Bear Lake, and eat a dead fly. Luckily niether Ryan or I got the Ace but others weren't as fortunate. The two I did not want to get was jumping in Bear Lake- poor Melissa H. had to do that. As bad as I felt I had to get a picture of her walking into the lake. She looks like she's walking to her death Ha ha! I also did NOT want to walk through that scary graveyard, luckily Jordan had to do that, who acted like he didn't even care . . . 'til his car wouldn't start after! Of all places, his battery dies at the graveyard. He said he must have accidentally walked on somones grave.

Sunday everyone went home and back to work and school the next day but me. My weekend wasn't over yet. I was going to St. George with my mother-in-law Cathie for the second time to see my cousin in a play. This time we went and saw "My Fair Lady" and my cousin Jenny played Eliza Doolittle. It was SO good! We both loved it. But sadly enough I forgot to take pictures! So here is the only picture I got, which I almost peed my pants taking I was laughing so hard. We are such dorks, but we sure do have a lot of fun together! Thank you Cathie for such a fun trip!
