For Halloween this year Emma was a flower and Nate and I were bees. Emma looked absolutely adorable in her little costume!
After getting all dressed up, we went to our Ward Halloween Party and Trunk or Treat. It was so much fun! There were tons of people there and everyone looked so great in their costumes. We didn't take Emma outside for the trunk or treat, though, because she's had a stuffy nose lately and we didn't want her getting sick.
They also had a chili cook-off for the guys and a dessert cook-off for the women. Nate decided to make a really hot chili and he ended up winning 1st Place! I was so proud of him! :) The chili actually had a really great sweet and spicy flavor so that when you first tasted it you thought "Oh yum! This is good!" Then the heat would hit you like a punch...lol. It was awesome!
Surprisingly I ended up getting 2nd place in the dessert cook-off! I thought that was kind of funny just because it was my first time making the dessert, which was a black forest cake with chocolate covered cherries on top. I really only made that because it just sounded so yummy that I really wanted to eat some! So the night turned out really great! The party was actually the night before Halloween so on the real Halloween night we went over to Nate's sister Heidi's house and played games with them. It was tons of fun eating goodies and hanging out! I love Halloween for that reason! :)

She was just kind of looking around like "what just happened?" and then she saw her blanket and decided to start eating it:
I guess the stationary days are over now! I better keep a better eye on her from now on like a good mother...lol.
