LOVE
Halloween!
It's been one
of my favorite
holidays
for as long as I
can remember. I
remember
going down to my
grandma and grandpa's
pumpkin patch
and picking out pumpkins
and then helping my dad
carve dozens of
pumpkins. And
best of all don't
forget all of the
CANDY!!
and I start the
festivities
a little early this
year with a big
group date where
we made funfetti
cupcakes
and carved
pumpkins.
We tried
buying a
pumpkin
carving set, but
of course being
Provo and just
a few days before
Halloween
the store was clean
out. So we got a little
creative and sketched
our own design,
an awesome looking
spider in a web.
We outlined the
design on the
pumpkin by
poking
holes with the
point of pens and
then we proceeded
to cut out the
pumpkin using
steak
knives.
It was a very intricate process,
that's for sure. I think by the time
we got done, two of the legs were
busted, but luckily we were able to fix
them with toothpicks. Once we were
finished, we were so excited it turned out
well, that is until I remembered that I forgot
to buy a candle to put in the pumpkin.
Luckily we had one laying around the
apartment, then I remembered we
didn't have matches or a lighter to
light it. We were able to track
down a match and light our
pumpkin. It looked so
awesome!
Last night i was able to
go to Nightmare on 13th in
Salt Lake, which was way fun!
It was good, but it wasn't as scary
as I thought it was going to be. I think
my date was hoping I would be a little more
scared too haha. I've learned that if you just
have the right state of mind while walking
through haunted houses, all of the creepy
monsters won't waste their time on you.
If they can't get a rise out of you, they
move on to some other person who
they can hopefully get a better rise
out of. It's kind of like having
older brothers, if you let them
make you mad and get a
rise out of you, they just
keep bugging you more
and more. After living
with two older brothers,
I've definitely learned
my lesson and not
letting people
get a rise
out of
me.
All in all
though it
was way fun,
I love going to
haunted
houses.
