This year we went with Frankenstine Guts (Spanish Chicken), Skeleton Graveyard (Salad), Snake Bread, Black Cat Brains (Green Beans), Bat Turds (Pumpkin Cookies), and the every year favorite... Ghostly Goobers. Obvioulsy you had to call the food by it's proper name in order to eat it! True Jolley style, there were "spooky suprises" in the food haha!! We all dressed up of course and it was just great.

After we filled ourselves to the MAXIMUM and were scared out of our minds because of how spooky the whole evening was :), we got our running shoes on and went to run the Halloween Midnight 5k! I was SO pumped! I run most days, but this was my first organized 5k. 
It was so fun!! We started with one lap around the track, then out the gates! For those of you who know Rexburg, it was up Wal-Mart street to the temple, down temple street, then back to the Hart building, and around the track again. Yes, yes running up that hill was hard. Actually real hard. I'm not a real fan of uphill running. But, I'm proud to say that we did run the whole way. It felt SO GOOD! Afterward we were all real happy. The boys beat us of course, but we won't worry about that haha :)

It looks like you had such a FUN halloween!! Spooky dinner and all!! Jenni I'm so proud of you for running that 5k. With the shape I'm in now I would probably have passed out on the track!! HA HA! We had the cutest little trick or treaters come by our place. We're hoping next year to have a little trick or treater of our own but we'll just be happy when it happens!! Love you and miss you!!
Yay for ghostly goobers!!! I think this was the first halloween where I didn't have Spooky Dinner. SAD!!! We had freaking IHOP on our way back to play some more at Disneyland. It just wasn't the same.
Your food looks awesome, I bet everyone loved it!
Way to go on the race, I would have died for SURE! You are my hero.
Love you!
Thanks for all the great photos, it made me feel like I was there watching. Great representation of our wonderful tradition! May it live on forever!!! I'm glad you had such a great time and congrats on the run too. I hope you weren't in pain the next day.
We had a good time with our fish pond and all the little darling kids all dressed up loved going fishing, these costumes now days are the best and make the ones you kids had look pretty sad. I did miss spooky dinner and meeting the trick or treaters at my door, first time ever to miss that.
See you soon, YES!
