.halloween party.


So here is the thing, Brennon hates scary movies! I have tried everything I could think of from bribes to black mailing to get him to watch a scary movie , but he just wouldn't! So last year I really wanted Brennon to watch the Disney Classic Watcher In The Woods, but he said it looked too scary! So I had a brilliant idea to invite a bunch of people over for a Halloween party and watch a scary movie! Brennon had to watch the movie with us! He said it wasn't that bad so we decided to do it again this year! The movie we picked out 10 months ago was I Am Legend! We told our family not to watch the movie because we were going to save it for the only night Brennon would watch a scary movie-Halloween night! Because Rusty & Carianne are expecting any day we decided to move the movie up a couple of weeks! The party was so much fun! We made homemade pizza and root beer and the the babies dressed up in Halloween Customs! But to tell you the truth I was a bit sad! Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the movie, but I just wish it was more scary! Now we have to wait 12 more months before we can watch a scary movie again!

Emery & Paige came dressed up! They looked so darn cute in their Halloween customs!

Emery was such a cute butterfly!

Tamra & Casey came!
Bailey went to bed at 6:00! So she missed out on all the fun! We really can't tell if Bailey is a rabbit or a lamb??? I think she looks like a lamb, but I not sure what the costume is really supposed to be.

Rusty & Carianne! we are so happy you guys came! Thanks for the root beer floats!
Justin & Carli enjoying the pizza & salad! Yummy!
Paige was such a cute ladybug!

oh and speaking of scary movies. remember in 8th grade when we would always watch scary movies in my basement & everyone would be snuggling up to their boyfriend & me & you would just make fun of them the whole time.... those were the good old days.

That is so funny that Brennon doesn't like scary movies. I would have never thought. Bailey looks so cute in her costume. It sounds like that was a fun night. What a good tradition you guys have started. I am happy for Becky that she is expecting and sad that she is sick, espcially while she is working. You look so cute by the way. :) Love the hair.

Amber, I LOVE YOUR BLOG! It's so fun to see pictures of your family, and to learn more about you. Thanks for letting me know that you were here...

Bailey is adorable in her costume, I love it!

As for Brennon not liking scary movies... I'm a tough sell on them, too. I can do intrigue, but nothing "scary", like in the scary movie section of Blockbuster. I do LOVE Watcher In The Woods, though. We go way back, me and that movie. Another favorite, if you haven't seen it and might want to put it on your list... Skeleton Key. It's a good one. Scary, but more of a mind-warp when it's all said and done.

Happy Halloween!

Amber!!! I love the blog. I can't believe I didn't know about this, any excuse to see more of your sweet Bailey is a great idea in my book!

Hey, Is Tamra's maiden name Balls. We grew up in the same neighborhood with their family. Her older sister Tawnya gave me piano lessons for a few years. So, are you related to her now? If you are you will have to tell her that I say hi. You will probably have to mention my maiden name though, which is Bennion. Anyway, it was fun seeing you at the lunch group.
