Wow, we had SUCH a happy Halloween!  
On Tuesday, I went to Berk's preschool class for her Halloween party.
The kids were singing a Halloween song when we walked in, and then we got to watch Berk perform the song with her class on the stage! 

Then back to their classroom for mummy cupcakes and bags full of candy!  Berk got vampire teeth, lots of fruit snacks, chocolate, and she promptly gave the DOTS to me (she doesn't like them, but grandma does).
She also offered me the base of her cupcake after she licked all the frosting off because "Grandma likes chocolate".  
Berk looked amazing in her mummy costume.  What a doll!
She was a silly goose posing for pics in the car on the way to her party!
After the party, we went to In 'N Out Burger for cheeseburgers!

The next day was Halloween, so grandpa and I went to Berkley's for Trick-or-Treating!  
Highlights of the night were 2 spooky haunted houses that Berk thought were great (except for the white smoke), getting a huge red light-stick, a really big (pretend) spider in someone's front yard, and getting to hand out candy while we were over at Aunt Mely's for a little while.  




Favorite candies of the night were suckers, Nerds, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and bubble gum.

Next year we get to go with our TWO grand-daughters!

New Jessie PEZ!

On Friday we got to spend a FUN afternoon with Berk at the BOO farm down at Thanksgiving Point.  She loved seeing the animals, getting her face painted (daddy got his face painted, too!), riding horses (two times!), playing in the pretend jail, and playing all the games.  Then we went to their Ward Halloween party where Berk wore a beautiful princess costume.  She had glitter and lip gloss and a tiara.  We love this little lady sooooooo much!

The other day as hubby and I were driving home from Berkley's, he said, "Berk is the perfect combination of princess and warrior."

Yep.

Here's our little "Karate Kid" showing Grandma her moves the other day.  (she makes me smile 100%!)

Garden Worker


Berk helped in Grandpa's garden this week!  Check out all these photos!

- She loves to work with Grandpa.

- We love her very serious "worker face".  Reminds us of her daddy at that age!  

- She makes excellent dragon soup.


- Pumpkin picking!  We got lots (about 10-12 total) this year!

- Shovel work.

Halloween House

Berkley got to come and play yesterday!  We painted a new Halloween House decoration together, she was very serious about making it just right.  She loved pointing out that it said "BOO" on it!  Later, she asked me if I had more "Halloween ornaments". (yes, I do - and we're getting those out on Wednesday when she comes over to play again!)
